The Chrysler car brand pursued an ambitious project in the 1960s: they wanted to create a new car model that used a gas turbine instead of a reciprocating piston engine as the drive technology. In order to determine the feasibility and marketability, they turned to journalists and everyday drivers. Almost sixty years later, we know that the gas turbine was not successful at the time, so it is all the more interesting to read in this historical report what people thought about it at the time. In addition, many original photos and even two manuals on the Chrysler turbine car have been published.
