Making of the Chrysler PT Cruiser:

 Toluca Mexico - The Chrysler PT Cruiser coming off of the assembly line at DaimlerChrysler Corporation's Toluca Assembly Plant in Mexico is world-class – not only in the quality of the finished product, but in the skilled workforce and Operating Principles employed to build it.

Faced with this challenge,  the Toluca Assembly Plant met the criteria, plus had the capacity and track-record that made it the ideal location for worldwide Chrysler PT Cruiser production.

Toluca produces both right and left-hand drive 2.0 liter and 2.4 liter versions for the world market.
In order to reduce the complexity of adding a right-hand drive version, the vehicle was designed to maximize side-to-side symmetry.

Additional right-hand drive assembly and testing capabilities were added throughout the plant, including: on-line electrical system testers, radiator and hose installation processes, chassis dynamometers, wheel alignment equipment, seat installation, and tool duplication for all operations that vary between the two configurations.
