Overview & Reviews

Classic styling and modern utility were the guiding forces behind Chrysler's PT Cruiser. Based loosely on the Neon platform, this small van offers a flexible interior, head-turning looks and, sadly, only 150 horsepower. A more powerful engine is already in the works.

• Unique styling, low purchase price, roomy and flexible interior.

• Only 150 horsepower, engine noise at high rpms, initial demand will exceed supply.

  The PT Cruiser has been a great car. I traded a Camary for it and the quality has been more than I hoped. Never a problem beyond routine maintenance. Versatility for all my needs.

  Best car Ive ever owned - 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By tjoy - October 28 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car because I loved the looks, but Ive grown to love it for many other reasons. Ive had it almost 3 years without even one minor defect or repair, which is important because I keep cars for at least 10 years. Cant say that about the Benz & Accrura Ive owned. The interior design and utility is top notch. Very roomy back seat and rear cargo compartment. Excellent handling and parking around the city. Ample power. Overall I can honestly say its the best car Ive ever owned.

  BEST CAR IVE OWNED - 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By tom galvin - October 16 - 12:20 am

  I bought my PT pre-owned and loved it from the first second I drove it. The only problem I had with it was it dumped water in the back seats because of a/c but was covered by dealer. It holds up well in wrecks my daughter flipped it over going 60!!! That was the end for my favorite car but I had it 7 years and was planning on buying a new car anyways. It was a 5 speed manual, sun roof and loaded. It was great to drive everyday and I miss it.

  PT Cruiser - Excellent To Own - 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Shawn - August 5 - 1:56 am

  Our PT Cruiser was purchased new in 2002 and has been a blast to own as a daily driver. My parents even bought a PT Turbo. The design and build quality are first rate. People still stop me today and complement how attractive it is. The interior has loads of room and due to the multi-configurations of the seating can haul larger loads than expected. It is a mini, fuel efficient, SUV. The back seat height makes it comfortable for rear passengers to the extent that it is the preferred lunch transport for colleagues - and they are driving BMW 5 Series. I would recommend it to anyone seeking a well built, stylish, fun to drive alternative to the boring econoboxes (Civic, Scion, VW).

  My Little Cruiser - 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Reenie - July 29 - 10:00 am

  Actually, it is a loaded Touring Edition. I wanted this car for three years and it has lived up to my expectations. What I love most is the design and attitude. Three years after the Cruiser first appeared on the street, it still turns heads. I do not find it disturbingly underpowered, and my two large dogs can walk around the rear with the seats down. If kept clean and shining, this car makes people smile. Im all for that!

  PT X 2 - 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By RED PT CRUSIER - June 25 - 8:20 am

  My Husband and I both own PTs one is a 2001 and one is a 2002 purchased a month apart. We both love them and we have had them now about three years. I was rear ended by a young girl going 55 mph and no damage was done to me or my PT.

  A Buds Opinion - 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By A BUD - February 25 - 10:00 am

  Performance is normally thought of as being very objective, determined by a stop watch. But performance can also be subjective. The PT Cruiser with four adults on board going up an incline is not going to accelerate much. But the PT will usually end up at the next red light with all the "jack rabbits" it was with at the previous red light

  PT 4 ME! - 2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser
  By Puck - February 25 - 10:00 am

  In 16 months and over 18,000 miles Ive had absolutely no problems. The utility, style and drivability of this car makes it the most fun car Ive ever had. It is indeed "too cool to categorize".
