The problem with the sales of the Pacer was the negative impact on the sales of both the compact Hornet and subcompact Gremlin models. In its sixth year as a carryover model, AMC priced the Hornet sedan and hatchback at the same as the year before. The 1976 model year saw the introduction of the Dodge Aspen and Plymouth Volare twins that included a station wagon body style, ending AMC's monopoly on domestic compact sized wagons. Total 1976 production was 71,577.
