By the name itself, you can instantly find out why Dodge conquest was
released in the United States – for the company to conquer the
subcompact market. But Chrysler failed in its aim to make the Conquest
dominate this division in the industry. It could probably be the reason
why Dodge Conquest was unveiled in the mid 80s and was dropped by
Chrysler in the same period.
The Dodge Conquest is just among the captive import cars sold by
Chrysler in America. Since early 1980’s this car was produced by
Mitsubishi and was marketed in Japan bearing the Mitsubishi Starion
name. In North America, it comes as a re-badged model offered in two
names – the Plymouth Conquest and Dodge Conquest.
The Dodge Conquest is subcompact rear-wheel drive car. It is
specifically a 2-door, 2-passenger fixed-head coupe motorized by a
2.6-liter 4-cylinder engine teamed with 5-speed manual transmission.
Dodge Conquest has a gas consumption of 18 mpg on the city and 24 mpg
on the highway. A turbocharged 4-cylinder power source was offered when
the Tsi model was later launched.
In 1990 model year, the company realized that the technology used in
producing the Dodge Conquest and its Mitsubishi counterpart, the
Starion gradually turn out to be old and outdated. Though the 2.6-liter
powerhouse employed in its production car in the United States seems
fine enough, Conquest came out to be outmoded compared to the budding
cars in the industry during that time. The production of Dodge
Conquest, along with Mitsubishi Starion and Plymouth Conquest ceased in
1990 model year to give way to various car models such as Plymouth
Laser, Eagle Talon, Mitsubishi Eclipse and Dodge Stealth.
If dependability is an issue, you can trust Dodge cars like
Conquest among other models. It is because Dodge cars are excellently
made to give you lasting performance and distinct road manners. As a
popular producer of exceptional driving machine, Dodge make sure that
all the models that rolled out in their assembly plant was outfitted
with the dependability that you’re looking for in a car.
