About the Chrysler NEW Yorker
The Chrysler New Yorker is an automobile model produced by Chrysler from 1940 until 1996. For several decades, it served as either the brand's flagship model or as a junior sedan to the Chrysler Imperial, the latter during the years in which the Imperial name was used within the Chrysler lineup rather than a standalone brand.
