About Chrysler PT Cruiser
The Chrysler PT Cruiser is a front-engine, front-wheel drive, small family car/compact car manufactured and marketed internationally by Chrysler in 4-door hatchback wagon (2000–2010) and 2-door convertible (2005–2008) body styles—over a single generation, with an intermediate facelift for model year 2006.
Noted for its exterior recalling styling from the 1930s, the PT Cruiser was designed by Bryan Nesbitt. The interior packaging was noted for its high-roof, high h-point seating, and flexible cargo and passenger configurations—a multi-level cargo shelf as well as a fold, tumble, and removable rear seating.
By the end of production in July 2010, worldwide production had reached 1.35 million.[6] PT stands for “Plymouth Truck”; it was named so as the car was originally planned as a Plymouth. (Source Wiki)
