The Jeep, Dodge, Ram Truck and Fiat brands each posted year-over-year sales gains in April compared
with the same month a year ago. The Ram Truck brand's 49 per cent increase was the largest sales gain of any Chrysler Group brand in April. Chrysler Group extended its streak of year-over-year sales gains to 37-consecutive months in April.
"Chrysler Group's best April sales in six years helped to maintain our sales momentum and drove us to our 37th-consecutive month of year-over-year sales gains," said Reid Bigland, Head of US Sales. "Our sales last month were solid across the board with seven Chrysler Group vehicles recording their best April sales ever."
The Dodge Durango's 65 per cent sales increase was the largest sales gain of any Dodge brand vehicle in April and second only to the Ram Cargo Van's 110 per cent sales gain among Chrysler Group vehicles. Jeep brand sales rebounded in April as all Jeep brand models except Jeep Liberty, which is no longer in production, posted sales gains last month. Sales of the flagship Jeep Grand Cherokee were up 27 per cent in April compared with the same month a year ago, its best April sales in eight years.
Seven Chrysler Group vehicles set sales records in the month of April. The Jeep Compass compact SUV and the Jeep Wrangler each logged their best April sales ever, as did the Dodge Challenger, Dodge Journey, Fiat 500, and Ram Cargo Van.
