What are k cars?

Answer 1

A type of automobile made in the 1980's by the Chrysler Corporation. The K cars have been categorized as compact for their external size and small front-wheel drive layout. They were designed to carry 6 adults on two bench seats. When someone makes reference to a "K car," they are speaking of the first generation models which were 1981-1989 Dodge Aries K and 1981-1989 Plymouth Reliant K. AND now....they are fuel-efficient, small cars..... K-cars were originally built following a call by the Japanese government to create lighter and more efficient vehicles, with an incentive of special tax breaks to cars that meet their standards: under 4.4 meters long and 1.5 meters wide (roughly 14.4 feet long and 4.9 feet wide) with engines regulated to be less than 660CC and no more than 64 horsepower.
