It seems that fans of the PT Cruiser from Chrysler have nothing to worry about. The production of the PT Cruiser will resume at its plant in Toluca, Mexico.

Chrysler decided to kill production of the PT Cruiser from January to mid this year due to the dropping sales figures and lack of future plans to update the car. The Cruiser became one among seven models axed by the management of Cerberus Capital Management.

The other units killed by the management were the Pacifica SUV, Aspen SUV, Crossfire, Durango SUV, and the Dodge Magnum.

The PT Cruiser graced the public starting in 2000 and was instantly loved for its retro looks. Aside from the styling, consumers opted for this Chrysler for its very affordable price. The PT Cruiser became an icon of the industry with dealers being able to inflate the price because of the high demand.

Fast forward to today, the PT Cruiser’s styling is basically untouched. Some minor tweaking was done back in 2006.

The sales of the PT Cruiser reached its climax in 2001 when the company was able to dispose of 144,717 cars. In 2008, there were 50910 sales. As of Q2 of 2009, the PT Cruiser has just made about 8591 moves out of dealerships.

An old vehicle in the line up of Chrysler may be seen as an illogical move by market experts but some sees it as a nothing to lose step since the PT Cruiser sells without lifting a finger for marketing plus the machines used to make the vehicle have all been paid off.
