Joint‑venture origins and code name
The Premier was created through a joint venture between AMC and another automaker, and during development it carried the internal code name X‑58. Although it was slated to begin production in 1986, the model officially launched for the 1988 model year.
First‑generation powertrain
The first‑generation Premier (1988‑1992) was equipped with a throttle‑body injected AMC/Jeep 2.5‑liter engine as its base motor for the 1988 and 1989 model years, highlighting the model’s AMC engineering roots.
A rare piece of AMC history
As one of the last cars ever designed by AMC, the Premier has become a collector’s rarity. Finding original components such as the SMEC module or the Mopar front‑brake caliper seal (originally manufactured in France and packaged by Chrysler in January 1988) can be especially challenging today.
