The DeSoto Airflow is a full-sized automobile built by DeSoto during model years 1934, 1935 and 1936. DeSoto received the then-revolutionary Airflow model due to its price structure relationship to larger and more expensive Chrysler brand cars.[1] The 1934 Airflow models are noted for their unique styling. They generate interest for their engineering innovations.[2] It has a 115.5 in (2,934 mm) wheelbase.[3]
The Desoto Airflow was a result of Chrysler Corporation policy of badge engineering, being mechanically substantially similar to the longer wheelbase, longer bodied Chrysler Airflow.
