By the time a 304 cubic inch V8 was offered for the 1978 Pacer, AMC introduced a line of luxury compact models, the AMC Concord. Moreover, gasoline prices in the United States remained high, limiting demand for V8 powered vehicles. The Pacer wagon had a squared off back and straight, almost upright rear side windows, and the two door Pacer wagon was positioned as entering a new segment rather than as a substitute for AMC's continuing four door Hornet station wagon.
