On 3 December 1979 production of the Pacer ended at the Kenosha, Wisconsin assembly plant where it had begun five years earlier. Automobile buyers in the United States adjusted to smaller and lighter cars, mainly imports that offered better gas mileage, and the Pacer, achieving about 22 miles per gallon, was not a top choice for customers during the 1979 energy crisis. AMC's partnership with Renault brought the Renault 5, named Le Car, to the AMC dealers.
