November sales up 46 percent at Chrysler Australia
6th December 2009
After
a tough year plagued by uncertainty and stock shortages, Chrysler Australia
is looking positively toward 2010 and has recorded strong sales in November.
Chrysler Australia delivered 875 vehicles last month, an increase of 46
percent when compared to the same period in 2008.
There were stand
out performances from each of the brands and two records were broken. The
Chrysler 300C, PT Cruiser, Grand Voyager, Jeep Cherokee, Patriot, Wrangler,
Dodge Journey and Nitro all reported year-over-year sales increases.
The managing director of Chrysler Australia, Gerry Jenkins said: “The
November results are a clear indication that Australians continue to have a
strong appetite for our vehicles.
Leading the charge was the Jeep
Wrangler and the recently refreshed Patriot - both achieved their best
results since launching in 2007.
“Wrangler is consistently our best
seller and last month was no different. We’re expecting Patriot to close the
gap as more stock arrives into our dealers over the coming weeks,” said
Jenkins.
It wasn’t all Jeep for the month of November. Chrysler 300C
and PT Cruiser both improved as did Grand Voyager which continues to lead
the segment. Dodge Nitro and Journey continue to succeed in Australia as
stock arrives to meet demand.
