What is the Chrysler TC by Maserati?
The TC by Maserati is a two-seat luxury convertible, a distinctive model in Chrysler’s range during the late 1980s and early 1990s. It came from a Chrysler–Maserati partnership and paired American engineering with Italian assembly. Its formal name reflected that unusual collaboration, while its open two-door body gave it a more personal, grand-touring character than Chrysler’s regular sedans.
The car’s single generation, identified by the Q code, was sold in the United States from 1989 to 1991. The project brought together Chrysler’s mainstream car-making experience and Maserati’s Italian identity at a time when Chrysler was broadening the image of its brand.
Engines and power
US listings cover petrol engines ranging from 2.2 to 3.0 litres. The range included a turbocharged 2.2-litre four-cylinder and a 3.0-litre V6. The available figures do not specify the power output of each version, so engine size and type are the useful distinctions here.
How economical is the TC by Maserati?
The US EPA gives the listed versions a combined rating of 19 MPG, with the lowest listed consumption shown as 12.4 L/100 km. That is an EPA result; it should not be compared directly with European WLTP or NEDC ratings or Canadian 5-cycle figures, because each market uses its own test procedure.
The figures cover US petrol versions from 1989 to 1991.
