What years were the Dodge Lancer made?

The Dodge Lancer was produced in three different versions during different time periods.
1. First Generation (1955-1959): The Dodge Lancer was initially introduced as a hardtop version of the full-sized 1955 Dodge and was produced in that form until 1959.
2. Second Generation (1961-1962): Dodge applied the Lancer nameplate to a higher-priced, upmarket version of Chrysler’s Valiant compact for the 1961 model year. This was done because Chrysler officially assigned the Valiant to the Plymouth division, leaving Dodge dealers without a compact car to sell. The second-generation Lancer was available in various body styles, including two- and four-door sedans, a two-door hardtop, and a four-door wagon.
3. Third Generation (1985-1989): The Dodge Lancer was reintroduced in 1985 as a more direct competitor to Europe and Japan’s sport sedans. It was a spinoff of the K-car platform and was available only as a 5-door hatchback. The third-generation Lancer was produced until 1989, and there was no direct successor to the Dodge Lancer after that.
Please note that there is also a Mitsubishi Lancer, which is a separate model produced by Mitsubishi Motors. The Mitsubishi Lancer was introduced in 2001 for the 2002 model year as a replacement for the Mirage in North America. It is not directly related to the Dodge Lancer.
