There were early quality problems with the original Concorde. The ’98 Concorde has plenty to live up to, but also some things to live down. The visual impression is one of kinetic motion. The sloping cowl sweeps into a steeply raked windshield. It noses into view with a grille reminiscent of old Aston Martins and Ferraris. The Chrysler Concorde is visually the most striking and, like the 1992 original, the updated Concorde uses cab-forward design to maximum advantage. The third model in the original line-up, the Eagle Vision, is vanishing from the fold as the entire Eagle division is shut down. Now, five years later, Chrysler has completely redesigned its two most popular LH cars, the Chrysler Concorde and the Dodge Intrepid. And these mid-size sedans played a major role in that turnaround. LH is an industry insider term referring to a trio of midsize sedans that made their debut in 1992, a time when Chrysler was just beginning one of the most striking turnarounds in automotive history. With their cab-forward styling, Chrysler’s LH cars have earned the automaker a reputation for cutting-edge design.
