Press Kit: 2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser, What's New for '07

DESIGN

“The Chrysler PT Cruiser’s unique styling continues to make it an icon in the automotive industry,” said Trevor Creed, Senior Vice President – Design, Chrysler Group. “PT Cruiser’s incredibly flexible interior and thoughtful design touches have set it apart in the crowded specialty car segment, and have kept it there for the last six years.”

The Chrysler PT Cruiser’s one-of-a-kind styling and flexible interior set it apart in the specialty car segment. Chrysler PT Cruiser is a dramatic alternative to the sea of sameness in the market.

From the front, the PT Cruiser features the face of Chrysler, with a Chrysler winged badge, chrome accents on the grille, headlamps that have a scalloped bottom edge and round fog lamps.

A body-color spoiler on the liftgate improves aerodynamics. A rear liftgate provides easy access to the PT Cruiser’s flexible interior. With the flip/fold/tumble seats and the available fold-flat front passenger seat and movable rear shelf, the interior can be configured in 160 different ways.

From the driver’s seat, the instrument panel features large gauges, flush shutoff rotating air vents and a Chrysler signature analog clock. The radio is mounted high in the center stack, and a passenger grab handle on the right side of the instrument panel makes it easier for passengers to get into and out of the vehicle.

The Chrysler PT Cruiser features a center console with a sliding armrest and covered storage space. This console conceals small items and includes a deep storage bin that holds six CDs, an available battery-fed power outlet for cell-phone charging, a coin holder and two fold-out cup holders for rear-seat occupants. Front cup holders on the Limited and GT models get bright accents.

An available Chrome Accents Group (which includes 16-inch chrome-clad wheels with nine-spoke design, chrome fuel door, chrome bodyside moldings, chrome door lock knobs, scuff plates with bright accents and a Chrysler winged badge) gives buyers the ability to customize their PT Cruiser from the factory, complete with warranty.
