About the model The Chrysler Saratoga was first introduced in 1939.
The Saratoga was built in six generations, but there were three main eras of production.
The first era (1939-1941) saw the model as the top Chrysler offering, the second era (1942-1952) saw it as the entry-level Chrysler model, and the third era (1957-1960) saw the Saratoga as Chrysler's intermediate offering.
Over the course of production, the Saratoga was available in a wide range of closed-body styles, including sedan, limousine, and coupe.
The Chrysler Saratoga was built until 1960, although the Saratoga name was re-used from 1988-1995 for a European exclusive model that was a rebadged Dodge Spirit.
