		The term, "Hemi engine", is a trademark of Chrysler Corporation, though the concept is used by many manufacturers.
		Perhaps the best-known proponent of the Hemi design has been the Chrysler Corporation, who have produced three generations of such engines: the first (the Chrysler FirePower engine) in the 1950s; the second (the 426 Hemi) from the mid 1960s through the mid 1970s; and finally in the early 2000s.
		Chrysler has used the word "Hemi" extensively in its advertising, to the extent that the word is indelibly associated with Chrysler in North America.

	Chrysler Firepower! - Previews - Car and Driver - February 2005
		The Chrysler ME Four-Twelve, the mid-engine carbon-fiber queen of last year's auto-show circuit, was a diversion extraordinaire.
		Having gauged the line for $500,000 Chryslers to be remarkably short, the company is now considering more modest proposals for a flagship sportster.
		Allow us to introduce you to the Chrysler Firepower!—that's what the company calls it, and the name includes that disturbing exclamation point—a shapely and eminently more rational concept crumpet that will be spinning before the flashbulbs of the 2005 North American International Auto Show in Detroit by the time you read this.

	Chrysler Firepower concept car
		The automatic transmission and less-powerful-but-still-potent Hemi make the Firepower quite formidable yet easier to drive for those who are not professional racers, and also bring the price down considerably.
		The lighter weight allows the Chrysler Firepower to come near Dodge Viper speeds - or at least to 2004 base-model automatic Corvette speeds (0-60 in 4.5 seconds, top speed 174 mph).
		The short-long arm Viper suspension is used for the ultimate in traction, and we suspect that, barring any major retuning for comfort, the Firepower may actually out-corner the Viper itself, due to its lighter engine.

		On the heels of yet another award for the Chrysler 300/300C,this time the North American Car of the Year, Chrysler trotted out a 'Vette eating concept dubbed the Firepower that perhaps looked much to close to reality from the perspective of General Motors.
		Indeed, the Firepower is built to do both, with Chrysler's multi-displacement system, which uses only the cylinder power needed, and 20-inch wheel in back to go with 19-incewheels upfront, all on the Viper chassis.
		Obviously, the Firepower is closer to production than most other concept vehicles at this stage.
