Meet the New Chrysler Delta…but it's not for U.S., it's for the U.K.

|

Do you remember the Chrysler-badged Delta hatchback that made a surprise appearance at the Detroit motor show in 2010?

Well, the Chrysler Group has presented the final production version but it is not for U.S. consumption. Instead, the Delta will be offered in the United Kingdom where all Lancia products will be marketed under the Chrysler brand.

The only changes made to the original Lancia model, which was recently updated with a new front grille, concern the Chrysler badges inside and out.

Available engine options will include a choice of two 1.4-liter units delivering 120HP and 140HP, and 120HP 1.6-liter or 200HP 2.0-liter turbo diesels delivering up to 61.4mpg UK combined (equal to 51.1mpg US or 4.6lt/100km) and emissions as low as 120g/Km.

Sales of the Chrysler Delta are expected to start in the UK shortly.

we get the ugly one the the British get the good looking one, as always. This discrimination has to end, and I won't buy a Chrysler until I see equal or better treatment for us American.

The 2 litre diesel has 165bhp, not 200bhp.

Caught my first glimpse of the UK commercial for this car last night, with all-genuine American voice over etc. The marketing is definitely out to emphasise to the British that the car has characteristics born American in some way...... I wonder if they will market the small Ypsilon in the same way when it's out next month...

The UK can have it, one of the ugliest cars I've ever seen.  I'm glad I won't have to see this thing on American roads

Surely you are a frustrated Fiat worker, and you are unhappy with your contract of employment.
Anyway the car is very nice, like many italians ones.
