[Allpar News System]

KGP just shot what we believe to be the 2015 Chrysler 200 interior, fresh off Allpar’s first photos of the 200’s exterior; a car that was kept under wraps most successfully has been exposed quite a bit over the last week. The cabin has a fresh take on the center stack, with a separate, angled collection of buttons and switches sitting below the LCD screen (the smaller one appears to be installed in this car, but the 8.4” version is expected to be optional). As Allpar sources predicted, the traditional gearshift in the Cherokee and the annoying electronic shifter in the 300/Charger/Grand Cherokee have both been ejected in favor of a Ram-like knob. The pictured car, which does not have paddle shifters, includes a low-gear knob position as well as Park, Reverse, Neutral, and Drive.

I like it so far!

I like what I'm seeing so far...

Edit: The screen isn't the 8.4 Uconnect2.. It seems to be the regular one, hinting at a lower trim model..

Yeah looks like the 5" radio. BUT, the vehicle still has the auto parking, etc buttons below the screen...

I also like what I see so far. Unlike the ext pics, these show me a lot more of what I'd be seeing if this were my next car, and it's a ton nicer on the dash & console than most modern cluttered cars like the two-tiered Civic.

This...intrigues me.

Holy crap that console is awesome! Love the design so far!

And this is something I wouldn't understand with packaging.. Auto Parking but a regular screen :closedeyes:

It's a mule. It could have a mix of parts for testing.

The elderly love auto parking, but do not go for Bluetooth phones and GPS navigation.

I believe this, but I have actually never seen anyone use auto parking.

I like the dash, but to me it looks like they took the piano black section from a Dart and then sat a radio/AC vent pod on top of it.

Probably the quality of the picture. I know they didn't really. I hope this makes sense

The interior looks production ready to be a mule for testing parts..
Keeping in mind, the auto park involves software changes..

Nice very upscale European... if you like that sort of thing

actually, i see that now. It DOES look like it's just stacked ontop of the island bezel in the Dart.

As I do not live in a High Urban area, it is never needed, so me either.

To me it looks like the serious workplace of a semi truck with the layout of these controls Not saying that is a bad thing... For sure an interesting design. Can't wait to sit in one...

 

[saltydog]

I like it! The knob and electric parking brake, nice touch. :thumbsup:

 

[Jeepnut]

Seriously so far not one complaint about interior design the new 200 could be a blockbuster!

Umm until job one is to build cars to be sold at dealerships, they are all preproduction mules.

I had a complaint.

Right!?!?!

...

I'm pretty sure this is a mule; and probably a little farther from production design than we think. Even the cluster looks a bit off; like it's too big for the "dart" dash.
