Description

Chrysler says the retro-styled, front-wheel-drive PT Cruiser blends the elements of a sedan, wagon, sport utility vehicle and minivan. Four trims are available: base, Touring, Limited and GT. For 2006, the high-output turbocharged engine in the GT gets a boost to 230 horsepower, which represents a 10 hp increase. Front and rear fascias have been updated, including a new grille with a winged Chrysler badge and chrome accents, new headlamps with scalloped bottom edges, new round fog lamps, and a new spoiler on the rear roof panel. The 2006 PT Cruiser's interior is new, and includes fresh seat trim and a satin silver-finished instrument panel with larger graphics and an analog clock. A passenger grab handle now sits on the instrument panel, and a new console features a sliding armrest. All radios now have MP3 capability.
