1979 Model 15 (Mutineer)
The Model 15 was a very important model for Bogliq USA. It was the unofficial halo model of the Bogliq dealerships ever since the glory days of 1951 and the medium car market was the largest segment in the entire USA (not counting commercial vehicles). This meant that the Bogliq designers and packaging teams had to be extra careful when placing the Model 15 within the maelstrom that was the US car market.
The Model 15 was exclusively powered by Delta V6’s but the big news was the debut of the Bogtronic4 four speed automatic. Finally, an automatic was available that didn’t sap power and fuel economy while delivering almost nothing in return!
