A front-wheel-drive hatchback coupe built on the Chrysler G platform (a derivative of the K platform), sold from 1984 to 1993. Offered with naturally aspirated and turbocharged four-cylinder engines plus a later Mitsubishi V6; the 1987 Shelby Z performance package used the 2.2L turbo. Not to be confused with the "Charger Daytona" trim/generation of the Dodge Charger, a different, unrelated nameplate.
