Chrysler Success Without a Parallel In Motor Car History

As a manufacturing anti business achievement, the success of the Chrysler Six in its first year before the public is remarkalbe enough. But it is even more remarkable since, both in number of cars produced and in money volume, it reaches figures never before recorded in the 25-year history of the motor car. In its first year just closed, Chrysler Six has built and shipped more than 32,000 cars. The public has eagerly paid over $50,000,000 for the privilege of enjoying the motoring superiorities which were unknown until Chrysler revealed them. One year ago the Chrysler Six was a little more than a name to the public at large. Beyond the word of Walter P. Chrysler that it was striking an entirely new note in motoring performance and efficiency and comfort, it was an unknown quantity. Today it is the one car talked about above all others. Never before has a motor car so quickly and completely captured the whole public. Never has any car appeal" od so irresistibly to buyers of all class es, and to owners of all classes of cal’s. Never has any car so completely swept aside traditions or so surely pointed the way to the obsolescence of the cumbersome, the heavy and the wasteful in motoring. Never before have such results as Chrysler Six provides been achiever’ with such compactness of construction

and yet with comfort of such superlative degree. In a word, the Chi-ysler Six —in the 25th year of the motor car, when it might have seemed that the full gamuL of engineering and manufacturing ingenuity had been run —gave to the public a car which in size and weight, in comfort and room, in performance anc« economy, in alertness and stamina, was precisely what the public had long wanted, but never before received. The Chrysler Six was designed to yield results never before achieved. It offered those qualities which the American sense of the fitness of things admires and desires. It brought a new alertness and aliveness to the motor car —a flashing acceleration that is pure delight. As never before, it joined roominess and conservation of space. It revealed performing abilities which had always been just beyond reach. Now see what has taken place. What has come to Chrysler Six in its first year is nothing more than the reward and the recognition which the world is sure to bestow upon something .distinctively superior to that which has preceded it. Thus Chrysler Six completes the first of what enthusiastic- Chrysler owners predict will be many successful years—years in which we shall earnest" ly strive to keep the Chrysler as far ahead of the wasteful and the commonplace as it stands at this minute.
