=== Passenger automobiles === [[File:1992 Eagle Premier ES Limited.jpg|alt=|thumb|Eagle Premier]] Chrysler revived the "Spirit" name, which was discontinued by AMC after 1983 for use on one of its [[Chrysler A platform|A platform]] cars (the [[Dodge Spirit]]) from 1989 until 1995. The planned [[Renault Medallion]] was sold as the [[Eagle Medallion]] in 1988 and 1989. The planned all-new 1988 Renault Premier, a joint development effort between American Motors and Renault, and for which the [[Brampton Assembly]] plant ([[Brampton]], Ontario β originally called the Bramalea Plant) was built, was sold by Chrysler as the 1988β1992 [[Eagle Premier]], with a rebadged [[Dodge Monaco]] variant available from 1990 through 1992. The [[Full-size car|full-sized]] Premier's platform was far more advanced than anything Chrysler was building. After some re-engineering and a re-designation to Chrysler [[Chrysler LH platform|code LH]], the Eagle Premier went on to form the backbone of Chrysler's passenger car lineup during the 1990s as the [[Chrysler Concorde]] (a revived model name that was briefly used by [[Plymouth Concord|Plymouth]] in 1951 and 1952βand AMC itself only a decade before), [[Chrysler New Yorker]], [[Chrysler LHS]], [[Dodge Intrepid]], and [[Eagle Vision]].<ref>{{cite magazine|first=John A. |last=Hailig |title=To the Edge and Back: Re-Emergence in the Eighties |magazine=Automobile Quarterly |volume=32 |issue=4 |page=104}}</ref> Plymouth almost received their rendition of the LH platform, which was to be called the Accolade. Still, Chrysler decided to drop this version just before LH production started. The [[Chrysler 300M]] was likewise a Premier/LH-derived car and was initially to have been the next-generation Eagle Vision until the [[Eagle (automobile)|Eagle]] brand was dropped after 1998. The LH Platform was subsequently re-engineered, using [[Mercedes-Benz]] components, into the [[Chrysler LX Platform]], which was the basis for the [[Chrysler 300]], [[Dodge Charger (LX)|Dodge Charger]], and [[Dodge Challenger]]. Chrysler's successor [[Stellantis]] later revived the Hornet name in 2023 for [[Dodge]] as a [[Rebadging|rebadged]] variant of the [[Alfa Romeo Tonale]].
