Chrysler Imperial Engines and Transmissions
Every Chrysler Imperial engine in this generation runs on gasoline, matched to an automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. Large-displacement units of this era prioritise relaxed, low-effort pulling power over outright revs, so the drivetrain suits steady cruising rather than brisk acceleration, with fuel use to match.
