Overview
Chryslus Motors was pre-war America's premier automobile manufacturer, producer of the iconic Corvega line and the Highwayman. Its vehicles, from luxury sedans to the fusion-powered Highwayman, defined American roads before the war. Chryslus factories and showrooms litter the wasteland.
History & Pre-War Operations
Chryslus Motors mass-produced automobiles for the American market, with the Corvega brand becoming its flagship. The company's assembly plants, including the massive Corvega Assembly Plant in the Commonwealth, employed thousands. Chryslus also experimented with advanced fusion-powered vehicles, including the Highwayman developed for government testing.
Products & Technology
Chryslus produced a range of vehicles: Corvega sedans and coupes, the Chryslus Highwayman, and various commercial vehicles. The Highwayman, powered by a fusion engine, represented the cutting edge of pre-war automotive tech. The company's designs became the recognizable wrecks found across every wasteland.
Post-War Legacy
Chryslus's factories became fortified ruins, most famously the Corvega Assembly Plant, a raider stronghold in Fallout 4. The Highwayman survived as a drivable vehicle in Fallout 2, powered by fusion cells. Chryslus's car culture legacy persists in the wrecks and hot rod modifications of the wastes.
Notable Appearances
Chryslus Motors appears in Fallout 2 (the Highwayman), Fallout 4 (Corvega Assembly Plant), and Fallout 76. Its wrecks and advertising billboards are iconic scenery in every wasteland.
