Sunday 2nd January 1994
The Chrysler Corporation introduced the Neon compact car. The Neon, an economy car, quickly became a popular car, particularly among young drivers. It replaced the Dodge Shadow and Plymouth Sundance & Duster models and the Dodge & Plymouth Colt. The two-door model also replaced the Plymouth Laser in Plymouth’s lineup. The Neon was offered in multiple versions and configurations over its production life, which ended on September 23, 2005.
