New marque after Chrysler bought AMC in 1987, but cars quickly cancelled in favour of Mitsubishis. Actually a good car compared with its competition, but AMC’s small size and rumours of takeover damaged its chances; and the problems were not solved with the change of marque. Cars were probably also under-marketed purposely by Chrysler as they conflicted with its own Plymouths and Dodges.
