Chrysler developed its first experimental hemi engine for the Republic P-47 Thunderbolt fighter aircraft. The XIV-2220 was an inverted V16 rated at 2,500 hp (1,860 kW). The P-47 was already in production with a Pratt & Whitney radial engine when the XIV-2220 flew successfully in trials in 1945 as a possible upgrade, but the war was winding down and it did not go into production.
Production ended in 2007. In 2008, the plant and the engine were sold to Fiat, which updated the engine into the E.torQ engine. Became part of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. Now part of Stellantis along with Fiat and Chrysler. Canada: Tecumseh Road: Windsor, Ontario: 1925: 1978 (production ended) 1983: Dodge D-Series Trucks
