CANADA In Canada , the Caravelle first appeared for the 1978 model year, as a version of the Dodge Diplomat for Canadian Chrysler -Plymouth dealers. As all Chrysler Canada dealers sold Chryslers, only the top of the line LeBaron was sold in Canada, and the Diplomat and Caravelle did not offer the top line models. In 1983, Chrysler Canada added the E-body version of the Dodge 600, also calling it the Caravelle. The Rear Wheel Drive Caravelle then became the Caravelle Salon, rather than taking the American "Gran Fury" name. Also in 1983, Chrysler Canada added a Caravelle version of the Dodge 400 2-door Coupe . Thus the Caravelle came in three sizes based on three platforms - K , E , and M . The coupe was dropped after 1986 while Sedan production came to an end in 1988. Like the U.S. version, the Canadian Caravelle was replaced by the Plymouth Acclaim for 1989. The Caravelle Salon, which was the original Rear Wheel Drive version, survived until 1989. |
