Plymouth models

Who was Plymouth?

Plymouth was an American car marque within the Chrysler group, aimed at mainstream buyers. Its range covered practical family transport, compact cars and sedans, with the occasional distinctive model. The name disappeared after the final Plymouth model years shown here, which run from 1984 to 2001.

That span captures a changing brand. Early in it, Plymouth offered familiar family cars such as the Reliant, Horizon and Gran Fury. By the later years, the line had narrowed to models including the Voyager, Neon, Breeze and Prowler.

Family cars and the Voyager minivans

The Voyager is the longest-running name in this Plymouth line-up, spanning 1984–1999. Its appeal was straightforward: a tall, practical cabin for carrying people and their belongings. Chrysler’s early minivans helped establish this kind of family vehicle in North America, giving Plymouth a role beyond conventional sedans. The longer Grand Voyager joined in 1987 and continued through 2000.

The rest of the range offered several shapes and sizes. The compact Horizon and later Sundance sat alongside sedans such as the Reliant, Acclaim and Breeze. The Colt name appeared in several forms, including the Colt Vista and Colt Wagon, while the Caravelle, Turismo, Laser and Conquest added further variety. These names came and went at different times, so the Plymouth line-up shifted from a broad mix of cars to a smaller group of familiar models.

From the Neon to the Prowler

The Neon arrived in 1995 as a compact car and remained through 2001, making it one of Plymouth’s later mainstream offerings. The Breeze followed in 1996 as a family sedan. At the other end of the range, the Prowler stood apart: a low, open roadster with exposed front wheels and styling that recalled early hot rods. It brought a more expressive design to a marque otherwise associated with everyday transport.

The model years covered here show no electric or hybrid Plymouth nameplate. The range’s story is instead one of changing body styles and roles, from practical sedans and compact cars to minivans and a distinctive roadster.

Where do Plymouth figures appear?

Plymouth figures on this page are for the United States and Canada. US fuel economy and emissions figures use EPA procedures; Canadian figures use NRCan’s five-cycle testing. These results are not directly interchangeable with European figures, which use WLTP or, for older cars, NEDC procedures. A rating therefore makes most sense when read alongside its market and test method.
