Chrysler Has Something Akino forTokyo
Barely finished with Frankfurt, Chrysler has a new idea ready for the audiences that will mass for the Tokyo Motor Show in October. The Akino concept, the company says, is a one-box vehicle that seats five people despite its compact dimensions. Named for its designer, 37-year-old Akino Tsuchiya, the concept uses natural and recyclable materials like bamboo flooring, sconce lighting, and throw rugs and pillows to create a homey interior. Tsuchiya penned the vehicle at the DaimlerChrysler Pacifica Advanced Design Center in Carlsbad, Calif. The Tokyo show opens to the press on Oct. 19.

It's an American car designed in America.
Chrysler still means American. Mercedes and Chrysler are still two very different entities.
