Thanks to the preservation of the basic principles of the muscle car, as well as the typical road design, this model managed to become the leader in the low-cost car market, holding out there until However, the new decade was marked by another decline in demand for Plymouth cars, since the global fuel crisis began in , and compact Japanese cars that consume a minimum of fuel were able to practically completely displace American manufacturers from the leading positions in the domestic car market of the United States of America In , the management of the company, trying to again become a trendsetter in the market, introduced the Volare model, which, however, only 4 months after the start of sales, was recognized as unprofitable.
By , only 2 models of the Plymouth brand remained on the market, which barely covered the costs of their production, which pushed the brand to become even more dependent on financial investments from the parent company Chrysler.
In , the development of a low fuel consumption model began, which was not crowned with much success, as a result of which Plymouth bought out a share of the European automaker Simca, adapting the Horizon model for the needs of US buyers and launching the model under its own brand. This allowed, finally, to receive a small profit, which, although it could not restore the financial independence of "Plymouth", but allowed to outline the further development of the company.
However, the Reliant model, developed by the company's engineers based on the developments of the Simka company, became a truly successful car of that time for the brand, and the power unit of the Japanese company Mitsubishi was located under the hood of the model.
In , Plymouth also released three Mitsubishi models under its own brand, concluding a cooperation and technological partnership contract with the Japanese brand. By , a new sports car, the Plymouth Lazer, was presented, built on the basis of the developments of the Dodge company, also part of the Chrysler concern. In , after a major update by Plymouth, which affected not only the model range, but also a significant restructuring of the company's production facilities, the Plymouth Neon was introduced, which became the best-selling car in the Canadian car market.
In , the Plymouth Breeze model was introduced. Under the hood of the new model were relatively economical 2- and 2. However, sales of the Plymouth brand continued to fall steadily, reaching the minimum of , vehicles. In the same year, the revolutionary retro car Plymouth Prowler was presented, on the creation of which more than half a billion dollars were spent, but no more than 6 cars were sold in two years of sales, which led to the largest losses in the history of the legendary brand.
Chrysler management decided to close the unprofitable division by notifying Plymouth plant employees of a massive restructuring. By , all current models of the company, which were presented under the Dodge brand in , were discontinued. The production facilities of the legendary brand were transferred to Chevrolet, and the employees were sent on administrative leave, continuing to work from for a new employer - Dodge.
