Plymouth Acclaim
The Acclaim replaced the Plymouth Reliant and Plymouth Caravelle in 1988 and in its turn was replaced by the Plymouth Breeze in 1997. The Acclaim was not well-received by critics or consumers. It was criticized for its poor performance, cheap interior, and lack of luxury features. It was also seen as a betrayal of Plymouth’s tradition of building stylish and affordable cars.
