Chrysler Sebring to be Rechristened Nassau

April 30th, 2010 Categories: Car News

The Chrysler Sebring will be getting get a new name later this year: Nassau.

The midsize sedan is due for an update, including a all new interior. Chrysler, though, is not commenting on the possible name change.

“[We] definitely don’t have anything to announce about the possible name change later this year,” spokesman Rick Deneau said.

The Nassau should sound familiar to car fans. It was the name of Hemi-powered, four-passenger luxury concept shown at the 2007 Detroit auto show. With striking looks and a prominent grille, the concept displayed a dash of panache, potentially for a future Chrysler. The concept rode on a 120-inch wheelbase and was meant to look more visually compact than a comparable Chrysler 300C, summoning the style of a shooting brake.

Still, the Sebring makeover is more of an update, so look for the name change to be the extent of the Nassau genetics that make it onto the new sedan. The Nassau name was also used famously by Chrysler in the 1950s.
