When Chrysler made the commitment to create their first SUV, their work was not dictated by a timetable, but by their desire to get it right. The result is the all-new Chrysler Aspen ? a vehicle that extends the boundaries of great design and engineering. Its superior ride and handling are sure to set new standards in SUV excellence. In addition, Aspen has earned the U.S. Government’s Five-Star front-impact crash test rating. And although Aspen is loaded with lavish features, it remains well within reach. It is, after all, a Chrysler, born of values that place equal emphasis on quality and accessibility. In that, each of Chrysler’s offerings provides further evidence of the kind of innovation that drivers everywhere have come to expect from THE VEHCILES OF CHRYSLER.
Aspen is proof that opposites attract. It is indulgent, yet sensible. It is lavish, but still very practical. Aspen allows you to enjoy the more elaborate features and technological advancements of luxury SUVs without the guilt. How? Aspen offers so much for less. For those who crave power, Aspen indulges with best-in-class* horsepower and torque from the available 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 engine with the Multi-Displacement System (MDS). MDS helps the HEMI engine improve its fuel economy by seamlessly deactivating four of the eight cylinders at cruising speeds when full power is not required. Inside, Aspen is spacious and versatile with multiple seating and cargo configurations. The second- and third-row seats feature ample leg, shoulder, and hip room and conveniently fold flat. No matter where you want to go or what you choose to do, Aspen is ready when you are.
Combine Aspen’s optional leather trim seating with its available Alpine Premium Sound System I, and you have a cabin that invites guests to simply sit back and relax. With the third row folded down, even your cargo will find itself in the most accommodations of environments. Overall its interior feels more like a luxury suite. Comfortable accommodations,. Exclusive entertainment. Unobstructed views. Hopefully, your destination can compare to the ride.
Chrysler Aspen provides up to 102.4 cu ft of total cargo room with seats folded. With available eight-passenger seating, guests are always welcome. If any road trip leads to an unexpected mess, Aspen features YES Essentials® stain resistant, odor resistant, antistatic seat fabric. Standard on Aspen cloth interiors, this Chrysler Group exclusive employs a dual-action technology that is woven into the fabric itself to repel and release stains without solvents. Spilled coffee, a child’s sticky fingers and muddy paw prints are no longer reasons to panic.
It should come as no surprise that the vehicle with the most powerful engine in its class has also earned honors for the best-in-class towing. When it comes to hauling, Aspen delivers unrivalled confidence. Its Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and Trailer Sway Control (TSC) help make the move smoother. Its smooth ride quality and steering response allows Aspen to provide comfort and drivability of a small SUV with the capability of a larger SUV. As for suspension, 2WD and 4WD models share a common torsion bar independent from suspension that gives 2WD models the same ride height as 4WD models. The isolated torsion bar crossmember also reduces road noise. Aspen’s class-unique link coil rear suspension and Watt’s linkage help improve ride quality.
When it comes to your safety, Chrysler Aspen has the protective instincts of a bodyguard. Available laminated glass with a robust frame and bumper height compatible with passenger cars help Aspen exceed government and safety requirements. Along with its front frame rail tips and the surrounding protection of its safety cage construction, Aspen also includes some of the most advanced technology available to help protect its most precarious cargo ? you and your passengers.
