Chrysler built the art-deco PT Cruiser in its standard form from 2001 to 2010, and it was a huge commercial success. It was named the Car of the Year by Motor Trend, included in Car and Driver’s list of the Ten Best, and named the North American Car of the Year. The convertible model, which was available from 2005 to 2008, wasn’t as well liked. Even though the car’s rounded looks were alluring, they did not work well in a convertible, causing the design to appear mocking.
