In 1981, AMC Spirit-based models were included in the Eagle Line up. The Eagle 30 was available in different versions the models that lasted the longest were the Sedan and the Wagon versions of the Eagle 30. Initially the Eagle 30 was also available as a sports wagon however; this model was dropped later. The Eagle 30 was a successful model that was used to bridge the gap between AMC's solid and economical vehicles. In 1980, the AMC Eagle 30 was considered, "The beginning of a new generation of cars." AMC used the Eagle's basic concept - that of a station wagon with AWD, raised ground clearance, and provided power options and automatic transmissions, as well as rough-road capability in many parts.
