20. Chrysler PT Cruiser
Even though most drivers regarded the PT Cruiser as a substandard model in terms of power and technology, it was an immensely successful model even if it was ugly. Chrysler managed to sell 1.35 million PT Cruisers in just 10 years. That was probably the last big sales hit for Chrysler. The PT Cruiser’s appeal was its faux-retro design, affordable price, and wannabe-cool image of a custom car from the past.
Under the hood, there was nothing special because the PT Cruiser shared a lot of its mechanicals and engines with the Chrysler/Plymouth Neon. This meant the PT Cruiser wasn’t particularly engaging to drive. Nevertheless, it was a quirky little car.
