Model overview

The Chrysler PT Cruiser is a front-wheel drive, small family car produced and sold globally by Chrysler in a 2-door convertible (2005–2008) and 5-door hatchback (2000–2010) body styles, across a single generation, with an intermediary facelift for the model year 2006.

Remarked for its outside styling of the 1930s, the PT Cruiser was created by Bryan Nesbitt. The inside packaging was remarked for its high-roof, flexible baggage, and rider configuration. The production stopped in July 2010, with total sales of over 1 million.
