Design

The "First Generation" Design was based on the 1987 concept Lamborghini Portofino. The Portofino was heralded as a design triumph,[weaselwords] setting in motion Chrysler's decision to produce a production sedan with the Portofino's revolutionary design, called "cab-forward". The cab-forward design was characterized by the long, low-slung windshield and relatively short overhangs. The wheels where effectively pushed to the corners of the car, creating a much larger passenger cabin than the contemporaries of the time.
