The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Summary:
|
A crowd pleaser with pizzazz
By Professional Test Driver, NewCarTestDrive.com
If you crave the attention that comes with a BMW or Mercedes-Benz nameplate, you may have a hard time considering a car like the Chrysler LHS. But that would be a mistake. The LHS may not be the best in its class on every single count, but then again - pardon our sports analogy - you don't need to win every event to capture the decathlon. During the course of our test drive, we found Chrysler's premium sedan to be attractive, luxurious and a tremendous value for the dollar. If you're looking for a reason to buy American, the Chrysler LHS offers a great excuse - without any compromises. |
|
Overview:
|
You could call this car the crowd pleaser, because when the Chrysler New Yorker concept car made its debut at the Detroit auto show a few years back, it was quickly voted as best-in-show. A year later, the New Yorker and its sportier LHS cousin returned as production models and once again drew standing-room-only crowds. The Chrysler LHS, in particular, is proof-positive that you can still serve up the type of roominess, comfort and luxury that American buyers have traditionally favored, yet dial up the type of performance and handling that appeal to today's younger, affluent buyers. Best of all, you don't have to do much haggling to roll out of the showroom in a fully equipped LHS sedan. Just $30,190 (just being a relative term) will get you virtually every feature available except for a CD sound system (that's a $169 option). The generous list of standard equipment includes a power moonroof, traction control, leather seats and heated power mirrors. If you've priced any of the imports lately, especially those from Japan, you'll recognize this as a bargain - a big one. Speaking of big, the LHS is one of the roomiest cars in its class, with plenty of space for rear passengers to stretch out - even if there happens to be a hefty 6-footer in the driver's seat. With its 3.5-liter V6 engine, the LHS we took for a test drive proved to be surprisingly quick and nimble.
