Plymouth Prowler Overview

Introduction

The Plymouth Prowler is a retro-styled roadster produced between 1997 and 2002, first under the Plymouth brand and later as a Chrysler after Plymouth was discontinued. Inspired by hot rods of the 1930s, it was one of the most unique production cars of its time. The Prowler was designed to showcase Chrysler’s design creativity, blending modern technology with nostalgic aesthetics.

Exterior

The Plymouth Prowler’s exterior is its most striking feature. With open front wheels, low-slung body, and sharp curves, it resembled a modern hot rod straight from the factory. Its aluminum construction reduced weight while giving it a distinctive presence. The bold design included a pointed nose, flared arches, and a sleek convertible soft top, making it instantly recognizable.

Interior

Inside, the Prowler featured a two-seat cabin focused on style and simplicity. The dashboard was body-colored, giving it a sporty and cohesive look. While not as luxurious as European roadsters, it offered leather seats, air conditioning, and a premium audio system in later models. The limited cargo space highlighted its role as a fun weekend cruiser rather than a practical daily driver.

Safety Features

Despite its radical design, the Plymouth Prowler included essential safety equipment such as dual airbags, anti-lock brakes, and traction control. Its rigid aluminum chassis added to crash protection, though safety was not its primary selling point. The open-wheel layout gave it unique handling dynamics but required careful driving.

Engine Trims

The Prowler was powered by a 3.5L V6 engine producing around 214 hp initially, later upgraded to 253 hp. It was paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission with Autostick manual shift mode. While some enthusiasts wished for a V8, the V6 still delivered spirited performance, and the car’s lightweight build made it agile and responsive.

Maintenance

The Prowler required regular servicing similar to other Chrysler models, with attention to its unique aluminum body and suspension components. Since it was produced in limited numbers, some parts can be harder to source today, but maintenance is manageable with proper care. Its simple mechanical setup made it relatively reliable compared to exotic sports cars.

Competitors

The Plymouth Prowler had few direct competitors due to its unique design. Indirectly, it competed with roadsters like the Chevrolet Corvette, Mazda MX-5 Miata, and BMW Z3. However, none matched its hot rod-inspired styling. Its closest comparisons were custom-built hot rods, but as a factory-built car, the Prowler offered exclusivity and personality unmatched in its class.
