Chrysler Ypsilon, Making a Car of Small Luxury.

The new 2012 Chrysler Ypsilon has been created and designed to try and compete with other popular supermini cars. This is a difficult task with many superminis already dominating the market such as the Ford Fiesta, Suzuki Swift, Mini, Citroen DS3, to name a few. The car has to appeal to different buyers in order to make any splash in the market, and the only saving grace for the Ypsilon, is the luxurious appearance. The car has 5 doors, with a sporty three door appearance due to hidden handles. The shape and curves are either offputting or exceedingly appealing.


The drive is decent, although not as good as rivals and the space and features compete, but don’t outperform other super minis. Overall the 2012 Ypsilon combines practicality with luxurious looks. For the best Chrysler deals, used cars Exeter is our choice.
