All the others break their lines by bringing the "wing" out from the body at, or near the driver's door and then to the back...

The Chrysler products "seem" to dip in the middle, as if to reduce the mass of the doors to allow the passengers access to the vehicle itself...the "straightness" of the lines doesn't exist from the side...it makes the car appear "weak" in the middle...

But, I'm just one voice...
The graphic artists took a bit of artistic license to make the car appear longer and sleeker than it really was. The real car looked much more substantial:
