The Plymouth Concord, was a full-size car, produced by the Plymouth division of Chrysler, from 1951-1952. It represented Plymouth's least expensive model in its lineup. It replaced the Deluxe, and was replaced by the Savoy only from 1954 onwards.

The Concord Series was available in a simple Deluxe trim level. For the station wagon an additional Special Savoy top-of-the-line trim level was available.

The name

Plymouth, Massachusetts was one of the first European settlements in North America and is a major city in the state. Two of Plymouth's model lines in the 1950s were named after towns in Massachusetts: Cambridge and Concord. The name "Concord", was later used by American Motors (AMC) for its line of compact cars (see: 1978-83 AMC Concord). The name was resurrected by Chrysler after it bought out AMC on its full-size cars (see: 1993-2004 Chrysler Concorde), though it was spelled "Concorde".
