2000 Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited review from North America
"Good looker, uninspiring driver"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had no problems with the car.
General comments?
The overall layout of the car is extremely well thought out and very practical.
This car gets very poor gas mileage. I got about 18 mpg when new. Mileage improved slightly over time. This car really needs a manual transmission. Unfortunately, only automatics were available during early production.
There is plenty of head room front and rear. It's very easy to get in and out of due to the high roof line. The leather seats are not very comfortable. I think the cloth seats would be better.
For a small car, it has a very wide turning radius.
