The **Neon** is a [compact car](/source/Compact_car) built from November 1993 until 2005 by the American [Chrysler Corporation](/source/Chrysler_Corporation) over two generations. It has a [front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout](/source/Front-engine%2C_front-wheel-drive_layout) and was available in two-door and four-door [sedan](/source/Sedan_(automobile)) body styles. In the United States and Canada, it was sold as either a [Dodge](/source/Dodge) or a [Plymouth](/source/Plymouth_(automobile)) (except for the 2001–2003 model years in Canada, when it was branded as a Chrysler), while in Europe, Mexico, Japan, South Korea, Egypt, Australia, South Africa, and South America, it was branded as a [Chrysler](/source/Chrysler_(brand)).

The Neon was offered in multiple versions and configurations over its production life, which lasted from the 1995 [model year](/source/Model_year) until 2005. The Neon nameplate was subsequently resurrected in 2016 for the Dodge Neon, a [rebadged](/source/Rebadging) variant of the [Fiat Tipo](/source/Fiat_Tipo_(2015)) sedan for the Mexican and the Middle Eastern market.[3][4]

## 1991 concept car

The Neon nameplate first appeared as an environmentally-friendly [concept car](/source/Concept_car) in 1991 at the [Frankfurt Motor Show](/source/Frankfurt_Motor_Show) under the Dodge brand.[5] It was radically styled and not production-ready, but some design elements resembled the future production vehicle.[6][7] The concept car incorporated unique features that included four power sliding doors opening from the center with no B-pillar, a power-operated full-length fabric sunroof with a drop-down rear window, a trash compactor to help eliminate litter, and the car was powered by a [two-stroke](/source/Two-stroke_engine), three-cylinder, 1.1 L engine rated at 100 hp (75 kW) supplied by [Mercury Marine](/source/Mercury_Marine).[8]

The Neon concept was designed by Chrysler designers who had joined the company from Chrysler's buyout of [American Motors Corporation](/source/American_Motors_Corporation) (AMC) in 1987.[9] The goals for the former AMC designers were for a car that was "lightweight, fuel sipping, powerful, comfortable in an American manner, yet to cost no more than a bit under $4,000 to build, with a retail sales price of no more than $8,000".[10] They also incorporated recycled materials or components throughout the car that could be recycled including identifying interior plastics so that they could be easily processed into reusable elements.[10] The Dodge Neon concept car earned a gold IDEA91 award by the [Industrial Designers Society of America](/source/Industrial_Designers_Society_of_America).[11][12]

## First generation (1994)

Motor vehicle

First generation 1997-1999 Dodge Neon Highline coupe Overview Also called Chrysler Neon Dodge Neon Plymouth Neon Production November 10, 1993[1] – August 1999[citation needed] Assembly United States: Belvidere, Illinois (Belvidere Assembly) Mexico: Toluca, Mexico State (Toluca Car Assembly) Venezuela: Valencia, Carabobo (Carabobo Assembly) Designer Tom Gale (1991)[13] Body and chassis Class Compact car Body style 2-door coupe 4-door sedan Powertrain Engine 1.8 L EBD I4 (gasoline) 2.0 L A588 I4 (gasoline) 2.0 L ECC I4 (gasoline) Transmission 5-speed NVG T-350 manual 3-speed TorqueFlite 31TH automatic Dimensions Wheelbase 104.0 in (2,642 mm) Length 171.8 in (4,364 mm) Width 67.5 in (1,714 mm) Height 54.9 in (1,394 mm)

The first generation Neon was introduced at the 1993 [Frankfurt Motor Show](/source/International_Motor_Show_Germany)[14][15][16] and went on sale in January 1994 for the 1995 model year. It was available as a four-door [notchback](/source/Notchback) [sedan](/source/Sedan_(automobile)) and a two-door [notchback](/source/Notchback) [coupe](/source/Coupe). Available engines were [SOHC](/source/SOHC) and [DOHC](/source/DOHC) versions of Chrysler's 2.0 L 4-cylinder engine producing 132 hp (98 kW) at 6,000 rpm and 129 lb⋅ft (175 N⋅m) at 5,000 rpm or 150 hp (112 kW) at 6,500 rpm and 133 lb⋅ft (180 N⋅m) at 5,600 rpm, respectively; transmission options were a 3-speed [Torqueflite](/source/Torqueflite#Front-wheel_drive_transaxles) automatic or a five-speed [manual](/source/Manual_transmission).

Dodge Neon sedan; rear view

The car was [badged and sold](/source/Badge_engineering) as both a Dodge and a Plymouth in the United States and Canada; in Mexico and [Gulf Cooperation Council](/source/Gulf_Cooperation_Council) it was sold as a Dodge and a Chrysler, and in Europe, Australia, and other export markets it was sold as the **Chrysler Neon**. At the Neon's release, then president of [Chrysler Corporation](/source/Chrysler_Corporation) [Bob Lutz](/source/Bob_Lutz_(businessman)) said, "There's an old saying in [Detroit](/source/Detroit): 'Good, fast, or cheap. Pick any two.' We refuse to accept that."[17] The Japanese press touted the Neon as the "Japanese car killer", due to a spiraling Yen due to the [Japanese "bubble economy" crash](/source/Japanese_asset_price_bubble) and the lower production cost of the Neon.[18] The Neon also became the first Chrysler small car sold in Japan but despite focused attention, only 994 were sold in Japan between June and December 1996.[19] One hindrance to sales was that the Neon was classed in the larger "Normal sized Passenger vehicles" tax bracket according to the Japanese Government [dimension regulations](/source/Vehicle_size_class#Japan) which obligated Japanese owners for additional yearly [road taxes](/source/Road_tax#Japan) which affected sales; had it been 19 mm (0.75 in) narrower it would have been in a significantly lower tax category. The Neon received praise for its appearance, price, and ample power when compared to its competitors. *Car and Driver* tested the DOHC 5-speed equipped Neon R/T and reported that it could run 0–60 in 7.6 seconds and 16.0 seconds in the quarter mile.[20] First-generation Neons were competitive in [SCCA](/source/SCCA) Solo [autocross](/source/Autocross) and showroom-stock road racing.[21]

### Equipment

Neons had unconventional option availability,[*[according to whom?](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Words_to_watch#Unsupported_attributions)*] including the lack of power windows in the rear doors. Certain color base-model Neons, including red and black, had bumper covers molded in color rather than painted. These covers, while textured and not as glossy as paint, absorbed scuffs and scrapes with less visible damage. The mid-level Highline models for 1995 and 1996 used wheel covers with a bubble design. Initially, Neons were available in many bold colors including Nitro yellow-green, Lapis Blue, Aqua, and Magenta. Paint color choices became more subdued by the 1998-1999 model years, as the majority of buyers opted for more conventional tones.

In the Australian market, Chrysler Neons came in two models, the SE and the better-equipped LX. Later, the LX model was replaced by the LE with the updated model in 1999.

In Japan, only the sedan was offered.[22] It was very similar to those sold in the Australian market. it was equipped with amber turn signal indicators next to the tail lights to comply with Japanese regulations and a side indicator installed in the fender behind the front wheel opening.

In the United States, the lineup started out as Base, Highline, and Sport, with different styles and options in each line, but the lineup titles changed frequently (other trim lines included Expresso, SE, ES, SXT, ACR, and R/T).

In Europe, the car was also available with a 1.8 L engine to suit local tax regimes. Europe received one limited-edition model, the CS that came only in Platinum paint. It was fitted with the 131 bhp (98 kW) SOHC engine, North American R/T specification suspension (slightly lower, 3.5 cm (1.4 in) rear, 2.7 cm (1.1 in) front), rear spoiler, unique alloy wheels, standard leather interior, dual stainless steel exhaust, a six-CD changer, and a shorter 5-speed manual gearbox.

#### ACR

Dodge Neon ACR sedan

The Neon ACR, available with the DOHC engine, featured four-wheel disc brakes, Arvin non-adjustable struts for 1995–1996 models and Koni adjustable dampers for 1997–1999 models, thicker anti-sway bars, stiffer suspension bushings, fast-ratio steering, heavy-duty wheel hubs, and a five-speed manual transmission with a shorter .81 fifth gear and final drive ratio of 3.94 for quicker acceleration. 1995 through 1997 models featured adjustable camber. The computer-controlled speed limiter was removed from 1995 ACR models (limited to 130 mph (209 km/h) on later models), and ABS was also, to save weight. The ACR offers no badging to distinguish it from other Neon models; the only visible differences are a bumper with fog light holes, but no fog lights and a lack of side moldings. For the 1995 model year, the ACR was only offered to SCCA members, but in subsequent years it was available to the general public. The name "ACR" was initially the internal ordering code for the "Competition Package", as it was termed in dealer materials; however, as knowledge of the model spread, the ACR name stuck. The [backronym](/source/Backronym) "American Club Racer" was coined due to its popularity with club and grassroots racers. To save weight, both the standard A/M-F/M radio with cassette player and air conditioning could be deleted, both for credit.

#### R/T

1998 Dodge Neon R/T coupe

The R/T model (Road/Track) debuted in the 1998 model year in both 2 and 4-door bodystyles. Offered only with the 2.0 L DOHC engine and 5-speed manual transmission combination, the R/T featured many of the ACR's mechanical upgrades including the numerically higher ratio 3.94 5-speed manual transmission, with the .81 5th gear and 130 mph speed limit. The R/T, however, was intended for the street, with more comfort and convenience features standard or available, and some specialized parts like the adjustable dampers removed, although the dampers, as well as the front coil springs found on R/T models, were slightly stiffer, offering an advantage over standard model Neons. The anti-roll bars were also thicker than the standard Neon, and the R/T featured four-wheel [disc brakes](/source/Disc_brake).[29] R/Ts featured optional stripes over the top of the car, silver "R/T" badging on the front door panels and the right side of the trunk deck lid, body-colored doorhandles and a rear wing. The interior featured sports seats, a unique fabric, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob.[30] The "Stripe Delete" option was available from the factory, but with no reduction to the Neon's price. All striped R/Ts (black, red, blue) had silver-colored stripes, with the exception of the White R/Ts, which came with dark blue colored stripes.

## Second generation (2000)

Motor vehicle

Second generation Plymouth Neon (second generation) Overview Also called Chrysler Neon Dodge Neon Plymouth Neon (1999–2001) Dodge SX 2.0 Production January 1999[citation needed] – September 2005[citation needed] Assembly United States: Belvidere, Illinois (Belvidere Assembly) Mexico: Toluca, Mexico State (Toluca Car Assembly) Designer Robert McMahan; Bob Boniface (1996) Body and chassis Body style 4-door sedan Related Dodge SRT-4 Powertrain Engine 1.6 L EJD I4 2.0 L A588 I4 2.4L EDV/EDT turbo I4 Transmission 5-speed NVG T-350 manual 3-speed TorqueFlite 31TH automatic 4-speed Ultradrive 40TE automatic 4-speed Ultradrive 41TE automatic Dimensions Wheelbase 105.0 in (2,667 mm) Length 174.4 in (4,430 mm) Width 67.4 in (1,712 mm) Height 56.0 in (1,422 mm)

Sales of the second generation model started with the 2000 model year and production ended with the 2005 model year. The second-generation Neon was only available as a four-door [sedan](/source/Sedan_(car)). In some global sales regions, including the U.S., the sole engine was the 2.0 L SOHC engine, the power output remaining at 132 hp (98 kW). An optional Magnum engine configuration (with an active intake manifold, and other engine revisions to increase power) that produced 150 hp (112 kW) was available.

Chrysler Neon

The second generation was more refined than the first-generation car. It was advertised that the second-generation Neon had over 1,000 refinements from the original generation. The first generation's frameless windows were replaced with a full-framed door. Other [NVH](/source/Noise%2C_Vibration%2C_and_Harshness) refinements were implemented. The new interior and greater size increased weight. The [DOHC](/source/DOHC) engine (Chrysler code name ECC) was no longer available.

In 2000, the R/T trim returned after a one-year hiatus. The R/T consisted of a new 150 hp (110 kW) SOHC Magnum 2.0 L Engine, 16 in (41 cm) wheels, spoiler, dual chrome exhaust tips, quicker steering box, and stiffer springs. The 2001 and 2002 R/Ts had a flat, 'hammerhead' spoiler. From 2000 to 2003, the R/T was sold as a Chrysler in the United Kingdom. The Neon was offered with a sport package for the 2001 model year only commemorating Dodge's return to the NASCAR scene, called the Motorsports Edition. It was available on SE, ES, and R/T and on SE/ES models, consisted of an R/T wing, R/T 16 in (41 cm) wheels, R/T springs, Goodyear NASCAR raised yellow-lettering tires, 'Dodge Motorsports' side decals, white instrument cluster, and R/T steering box. SE and ES cars were an R/T visually except for the lack of dual exhaust, R/T lower moldings, fog lamps, and R/T exclusive front bumper. The SE and ES only came equipped with the base model's 132 hp (98 kW) engine and was available with an automatic transmission (unlike the manual-only R/T model), the R/T retained the 150 hp Magnum engine. In 2001, there was also a Sport Appearance Package available on SE and ES, which added the R/T wing and 16” wheels as well as other option availability. 2001 was the last year for the Plymouth Neon, and the Plymouth brand as well. The last Plymouth Neon, which was also the last Plymouth ever produced (a silver four-door sedan), rolled off the assembly line on June 28, 2001.

The former Dodge and Plymouth Neon were briefly sold under the Chrysler name in Canada from 1999 until 2002, until being renamed as Dodge SX 2.0 for 2003. As before, in Europe, Australia, Mexico, Asia, South Africa and South America, it continued to be sold as a Chrysler, as Dodge and Plymouth passenger cars were not marketed outside the U.S. and Canada at the time. Besides the 2.0 L engine, it used the same [Tritec](/source/Tritec_engine) 1.6 L unit found in the [MINI](/source/Mini_(marque)) prior to 2007. The 1.6 L unit is a variation of the 2.0 L SOHC engine designed by Chrysler and built by Tritec.[31]

Originally, the second-generation Neon featured a five-speed manual transmission using the former ACR gear ratios to improve acceleration. However, this hurt gas mileage and made the car noisier on the highway, and eventually, the original gear ratios were restored. A four-speed automatic (41TE) was offered in the Neon for the 2002 model year, and the 03-05 received an updated 40TE four-speed auto, replacing the earlier 3-speed 31TH.

Chrysler Neon Rear View

The Chrysler Neon was renamed **Dodge SX 2.0** in Canada for 2003 and sold at Dodge dealerships. In Australia and Canada, the Chrysler Neon was discontinued in 2002. In 2002, the front clip was changed to match the **R/T** and **ACR** front clip with the exception of missing a lower lip.

The Neon was facelifted once again for 2003 with revised headlights and a crosshair grille to make it look more like a [Dodge Caravan](/source/Dodge_Caravan) and [Dodge Stratus](/source/Dodge_Stratus).

The ACR model was discontinued for 2003; the R/T model for 2004. The Chrysler Neon continued to be sold in Europe until 2004.

### Export markets

The second generation saw limited exports compared to the original Neon.

In Brazil, the Neon was marketed as a [luxury](/source/Luxury_car) [mid-size](/source/Mid-size) sedan; for [Mexico](/source/Mexico), it was a competitor to the [Ford Escort](/source/Ford_Escort_(North_American)), and sold as a Chrysler with either the 1.6 or 2.0 L engine and European-style [taillights](/source/Taillight) (with separate amber indicator lights), except for the R/T model, which was a Dodge, with U.S.-style taillights.

For the [Dutch](/source/Netherlands) market, the Neon proved more successful than for the rest of [the Continent](/source/The_Continent).[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*] Trim levels were 2.0 LX and 2.0 SE.

This generation continued to be offered in Japan from 1999 to 2001. The Japanese version was installed with a leather interior and was marketed as a small luxury car to Japanese consumers. In 2002, the Neon was replaced by the [Chrysler PT Cruiser](/source/Chrysler_PT_Cruiser) in Japan.

### Final year

DaimlerChrysler discontinued the Neon, with the final cars assembled on September 23, 2005, at the [Belvidere Assembly](/source/Belvidere_Assembly) plant in [Belvidere, Illinois](/source/Belvidere%2C_Illinois).[32] The Neon was replaced in the spring of 2006 with the 2007 [Dodge Caliber](/source/Dodge_Caliber), which is based on the shared [Chrysler](/source/Chrysler)/[Mitsubishi Motors](/source/Mitsubishi_Motors) [GS platform](/source/Mitsubishi_GS_platform). Like the Neon, the Caliber had an SRT-4 variant, but like the standard Caliber, it used a completely different engine.[33] The Belvidere plant underwent retooling for the Caliber, [Jeep Compass](/source/Jeep_Compass), and [Patriot](/source/Jeep_Patriot).

In markets like [Australia](/source/Australia), the Neon range was reduced to either 2.0 LX or 2.0 SE models.

### Safety

The first generation Neon earned a *"Poor"* rating in an offset frontal [Crash test](/source/Crash_test) conducted by the [Insurance Institute for Highway Safety](/source/Insurance_Institute_for_Highway_Safety). The second-generation Neon earned a higher *"Marginal"* rating. The second generation were rated as *"Poor"* in the side impact crash test[34] (IIHS Safety ratings go from *"Poor"*, to *"Marginal"*, *"Acceptable"* and *"Good"*). By comparison, the [Chevrolet Cavalier](/source/Chevrolet_Cavalier) performed worse in the small car category in 2005, the Neon's final year.[35] Other cars made from 2000 to 2005 that were rated "Poor" when tested without optional side airbags included the Ford Focus, Toyota Corolla, Toyota Prius, Mitsubishi Lancer, and Chevrolet Cobalt. No small car made in this period, tested without side airbags, achieved better than a "Poor."[36]

In 2005, the Institute carried out side-impact tests on 14 small car models, simulating an impact with an SUV. Among these, the Neon performed the worst. IIHS stated that the Neon had *"...major problems beginning with its structure. This car is a disaster...The structure is poor...If this had been a real driver in a real crash, it's likely it wouldn’t have been survivable...if safety is a priority, the Neon is a small car to be avoided."*[36]

Second generation [headrests](/source/Head_restraint) were rated as *"Poor"*.[37]

*Driver deaths* fatality risks statistics — published by the IIHS — rated the Neon and 15 other vehicles among the *"Highest rates of driver deaths."*, The Neon had 161 driver deaths per million registered vehicle years, while the average for the Neon class (4-door small) was 103.

## Third generation (2016)

Main article: [Fiat Tipo (2015)](/source/Fiat_Tipo_(2015))

2018 Dodge Neon (Mexico)

The third generation of the Dodge Neon is the sedan version of Fiat's [Project Ægea](/source/Fiat_Tipo_(2015)), adapted for the Mexican and Middle Eastern markets as well as marking a comeback of the Neon nameplate after an 11-year absence.[43]

Released for the 2017 model year, the new Neon was positioned for the Mexican market as a "new breed of compact sedan."[44] The new Neon was introduced in 2016, around the same time the [Dodge Dart](/source/Dodge_Dart_(PF)) was expected to end production and there were reports that it would be sold in the U.S. and Canadian markets by 2018 as a replacement for the Dart.[3] Consistent with [FCA](/source/Fiat_Chrysler_Automobiles)'s plans to dedicate U.S. production to [Jeep](/source/Jeep) and [Ram](/source/Ram_Trucks) vehicles while using the [North American Free Trade Agreement](/source/North_American_Free_Trade_Agreement) to make Chrysler and Dodge passenger cars in Canada and Mexico, the Neon was planned to be built and imported from [Turkey](/source/Turkey).[45] Utilizing the [Fiat Tipo](/source/Fiat_Tipo_(2015)) platform, the cars were co-developed and produced in [Tofaş](/source/Tofa%C5%9F) by Fiat and Turkish Koç Holding.[46] Although marketed in Turkey, Europe, and Africa, only Mexico and the Middle East received the Dodge Neon variant.[46][47][48]

Plans to market the third-generation Neon vehicle north of Mexico were dropped following [General Motors](/source/General_Motors) and [Ford](/source/Ford_Motor_Company) each paring down their own passenger car lineups in the U.S., including ending sales of potential compact-sized rivals [Chevrolet Cruze](/source/Chevrolet_Cruze) and [Ford Focus](/source/Ford_Focus) in the US and Canada.[49][50] The Neon was discontinued in Mexico after the 2020 model year, with the final 70 units sold in 2021.

### Sales
