Chrysler Valiant CL

1976 – 1978

The Chrysler Valiant CL was produced from 1976 to 1978 as one of the later generations in the long-running Australian Valiant lineup, arriving near the tail end of the model's production life before the final CM generation closed out the nameplate. By this point in the series, the Australian Valiant had developed a strong independent character from its American origins, with Chrysler Australia refining the local formula through successive iterations across the 1960s and 1970s. The CL slotted between the VJ-derived lineage and the concluding CM, representing Chrysler Australia's continued commitment to the large local passenger car segment during a period of increasing market pressure from fuel economy concerns following the 1973 oil crisis. Specific mechanical details for the CL are not fully documented here, but the generation carried forward the established Valiant platform that had served as Chrysler Australia's core volume product across nearly two decades of continuous development.
