As reported back in May, Chrysler has also switched back to its former five-pointed star logo albeit with a slight update. With its ties with former parent company Daimler now severed, Chrysler hopes to make a return to its American roots and the new logo is the first step in that process.
The final piece of the puzzle in the whole DaimlerChrysler saga will be the unveiling of the new name for the now separate Daimler. Shareholders will gather in Stuttgart on October 4 to vote in the new name, likely to become simply Daimler AG.
