The Simca 1307 was the name under which
Chrysler Europe launched its new
large family car in 1975. A modern,
front-wheel drive hatchback, it was one of the first such cars in that class, along with the
Volkswagen Passat, and became the 1976
European Car of the Year. The model was sold under a variety of names, including Simca 1308 and 1309 models (with larger engines), Chrysler Alpine (name used for the UK market), Chrysler 150 (Spanish market), Talbot 1510 / Talbot Alpine / Talbot 150 (a facelifted version launched by
PSA after its takeover of Chrysler Europe) and Talbot Solara (the
saloon version, also launched in 1980, and briefly known in some markets as the Simca Solara).
