It was designed to compete with upmarket compacts such as the Geo Prizm, Ford Escort and the Honda Civic after the life of the Horizon was to be extended. In Mexico, the car was sold as the Chrysler Shadow. It and the similar Dodge Shadow came in two body styles, a 3-door hatchback and a 5-door hatchback. Unlike the Dodge Shadow, a convertible model was not offered for the Sundance.

  • The Plymouth Sundance is a compact car model that was produced for model years 1987 to 1994. It was designed to compete with upmarket compacts such as the Geo Prizm, Ford Escort and the Honda Civic after the life of the Horizon was to be extended. In Mexico, the car was sold as the Chrysler Shadow. It and the similar Dodge Shadow came in two body styles, a 3-door hatchback and a 5-door hatchback. Unlike the Dodge Shadow, a convertible model was not offered for the Sundance. The reason for this is because all Plymouths were sold with Chryslers, and Chrysler already sold the LeBaron convertible; although it was based on a different platform. Dodges, on the other hand, were sold by themselves, and Dodge had no other convertible. They were both built using a variant of the venerable K-car platform, known as the P-body, which was based on a combination of the Dodge Daytona's suspension with a .1 in shorter wheelbase, and a shortened version of the Dodge Lancer's body which had not gained wide acceptance over the sedan body as a mid-size. While the Sundance looked like a regular sedan or coupe, it was actually a hatchback. Chrysler considered this a special feature: "Hidden hatchback versatility. " The relatively large storage capacity of the Sundance was one major selling point. While based on a platform which dated all the way back to 1981, its styling, utility, reliable powertrains, and trim levels (most notably the Duster) made the Sundance popular until it was discontinued. Because the Sundance was based on a mid-size car with a sporty car's suspension, it offered a combination of comfortable and traditional seating with credible cornering. The Sundance was more tuned for comfort while the Shadow was more tuned for performance, however the difference was not drastic. The Sundance could easily be distinguished by its chrome (body colored for Duster) eggcrate grille which was common on Plymouths of that era. For 1989, the Sundance received a facelift, with the inset sealed-beam headlamps discarded in favor of aerodynamic composite units. A new all-chrome grille and new taillights were among other changes. A motorized passenger's side seat belt was added to US-market Sundances in 1994, to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208's requirement for passive restraints. These motorized belts do not comply with Canada's safety standards; Canadian-market Sundances continued to use a manual passenger seatbelt, and 1994 Sundances cannot legally be imported across the US-Canada border in either direction. Sundances were built in Sterling Heights, Michigan and Toluca, Mexico. The first car rolled off the assembly line on August 25, 1986 and the last on March 9, 1994. It was replaced by the Plymouth Neon for 1995.
  • Der Plymouth Sundance war eine vom US-amerikanischen Automobilhersteller Plymouth von 1986 bis 1994 produzierte Frontantriebs-Limousine der unteren Mittelklasse. Der Sundance basierte auf der P-Plattform des Chrysler-Konzerns (einer verkürzten Variante der K-Plattform) und war damit Schwestermodell des Dodge Shadow, von dem er sich lediglich durch minimale Details unterschied; allerdings war der Sundance, im Gegensatz zum Shadow, nicht als Cabriolet erhältlich.
  • El Plymouth Sundance va ser un cotxe de tipus compacte, compact, fabricat per Chrysler i venut sota la marca Plymouth els anys 1987 a 1994. Plymouth el va crear per a competir contra els Geo Prizm, Ford Escort i Honda Civic. El Sundance va fabricar-se a les plantes de Sterling Heights, Michigan i Toluca, Mèxic, i substitueix al Plymouth Turismo.
