Chrysler got a new lease on life some months back with regards to its current financial standing. Now it seems that they have totally forgotten how to redeem itself from their poor showing as the company is still mum on what it plans to do with their current product line. There has been no word on new vehicles that would be coming out and yet we are nearing the close of 2009. Has Chrysler totally lost it?

Unlike Ford which has put much of its weight on their electric car, the Volt, Chrysler has not leaked or shown any new car models to look forward to. Rather they are providing customers with perks like car leasing and specialized features. How long can they do that? Unless they start getting their act together they are better off closing the company or perhaps selling it to someone else. They do have plans of a brand makeover but time is essential. Apparently Chrysler forgot all about that.

We know that it is easy to change the theme of a mobile phone but have you ever considered seeing that idea come to the car era? Well apparently that is what the MOY concept is all about. It is a technology that allows you to change part or the entire car as far as the look is concerned.

Just imagine doing away with the usual repainting and various designs for your car which normally takes some weeks to a month to finish. Worse, if you don’t like the design, the issue of cost comes into play since you have to resort to a makeover.

But the MOY concept changes all that. You can just plug it in and change it whenever you feel like it. In fact, it can be a useful promotional tool for businesses since they can be great moving vehicle ads which we commonly see today.

MOY koncept was made for a generation used to using media to express themselves. The idea is everyone can design their own car on their own computer and then apply the design to their vehicle wirelessly or share it with others thru a website or even email. For those lacking creative skillz, there’s a slew of templates to choose from. The car is always connected so imagine dynamically changing your vehicle’s skin in motion.
