The Plymouth Cricket is the brand name used for the Hillman Avenger sold in the US market from 1971 to 1973 by the Plymouth division of Chrysler Corporation. A total of 45,000 units were sold which were then offered in four door, deluxe and wagon models. The car did not sold well in the US market which leads to its elimination in the Plymouth line-up in 1973. However, production of the car in Canada continued under the brand name Cricket Formula S. Later in 1975, the Plymouth Cricket was renamed as the Plymouth Colt which was also known as the Dodge Colt. So the Colt was sold under Plymouth and Dodge names. The Plymouth Cricket is basically a “captive import” or the type of car imported from one company and branded as their own. In the case of Plymouth Cricket, it is a renamed Hillman Avenger model. The same engine was used but the power output is below the expectation of the American users. It is actually one of the reasons why the Plymouth Cricket was not given due attention in the US market. To comply with the US auto policies, the Plymouth Cricket is equipped with front seats with integrated headrests, side markers and seat belt warning light system. However, the car earned a not so good reputation because of its alternative features. Take for instance the foam filled centre section of the steering wheel as alternative protection for seatbelts. It’s also a good feature but drug users used it to hide their paraphernalia. Nonetheless, the Plymouth Cricket is not entirely a Hillman Avenger. It is also packed up with new features that gave it a distinct identity of its own. In fact, it is the first car equipped with innovative safety features such as front crumple zones, sturdy cabin, padded dash and strong windscreen. Plymouth Cricket produced for the later years can be fitted with new auto parts and accessories for modifications and restoration of its style and performance. Nowadays, these parts can be purchased from Partstrain with top rated quality and affordability. Just make sure that you choose the right auto parts and accessories that will match the specific features of the car.
