At the beginning was called Zipp, a name that was rejected. The project designers proposed the name Dart which was immediately approved.



At the time of its manufacturing in the 60s, its name was associated with the military aircraft Convair F-106 Delta Dart and simultaneously, part of its advertising was focused on the excitement that surrounded the space race during this time.

It is currently offered in 6 different models: SE, SXT, RALLY, AERO, LIMITED, and GT. SE is the cheapest of all and you can get it for a starting price of less than $16,000 dollars.

The Honda Civic , Kia Optima and Chevrolet Cruze are other strong opponents.
