Due to its aging design and underpowered engine, the 2010 Chrysler PT Cruiser currently ranks near the bottom of the affordable compact wagons class. However, that wasn’t always the case. Top Speed reports: “When it was first launched, the PT Cruiser was a brilliant little car, unique in every sort of way. The car went on sale in 2000 during the American SUV craze. The retro design, like the New Beetle, made it a massive sales success. In fact, the car sold well beyond anything Chrysler could have imagined.”

An apology for reviving this thread that has been posted long time ago. Well, PT cruiser is quite a nice drive. however, the reason why Chrysler stopped the production of such vehicle is the complaints it got from drivers. besides, they're no longer receiving orders although there are still drives seen on the road up to the present. the major focus of the auto maker nowadays is to deliver not just quality but reliable and durable products to people. as such, they have got the idea of having cherokee and XJ as their main masterpieces. |
