Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2010
Chrysler PT Cruiser is a five-seat compact wagon that is now offered in only
one trim level: the Classic. This new configuration offers an amalgam of
features seen in various trim levels from prior years. Included are 16-inch
alloy wheels, foglights, a rear spoiler, full power accessories,
air-conditioning, a tilt steering wheel, a trip computer, keyless entry and a
four-speaker audio system with a CD player and auxiliary audio jack. The
optional Convenience Group adds a six-way power driver seat, a fold-flat front
passenger seat and heated front seats. A sunroof is also available, as is
satellite radio.
Powertrains and Performance
The 2010 Chrysler PT Cruiser is powered by a 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder
engine that produces 150 horsepower and 165 pound-feet of torque. The only
available transmission is a four-speed automatic that drives the front wheels.
Fuel economy is a middling 19 mpg city/24 mpg highway and 21 mpg in combined
driving.
Safety
Antilock disc brakes, front seat side airbags and a low-speed traction
control system are standard for the 2010 PT Cruiser. The Insurance Institute for
Highway Safety awarded its highest score of "Good" for frontal-offset crash
protection.
Interior Design and Special Features
The retro themes evident in the 2010 PT Cruiser's exterior are also reflected
in its cabin, most notably in its thin-spoked steering wheel and an old-timey
round transmission shifter knob. Those seated in back are afforded a pleasant
view thanks to the Cruiser's slightly elevated rear seats, and head- and legroom
are plentiful for adult passengers. The 65/35-split-folding rear seats can be
flipped forward for added cargo space. These seats are removable, and in this
configuration, allow for 63 cubic feet of storage space.
