American Motors is planning production of a station wagon version of its wide, glassy Pacer. It will also have a fresh version of its aging subcompact Gremlin; the new model will use a Volkswagen-designed four-cylinder engine. Indeed, car buyers will find an even wider range of models of all sizes in showrooms round the nation next autumn. GM alone will sell no fewer than 40 models with four different kinds of engines. Whatever kind of car the public may want, Detroit hopes to have it ready, thus coping with buyers who think small one moment and bigger the next.
