2006 will be Chrysler Group's biggest ever year in the UK with no less than six new right-hand drive vehicles going on sale
The most significant launch is likely to be the Commander, a seven-seater version of the popular Grand Cherokee. Although the new Commander shares the same four-wheel drive system, suspension and powertrains as the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the company says '..it is a very different vehicle'.
In addition, 2006 will see the launch of the
Dodge brand in the UK. Simon Elliott, Managing Director of Chrysler Group, said: "The
Dodge Caliber will be the first of a series of new right-hand drive
Dodge products coming into the UK over the next three years. All of our market research suggests that C-segment car buyers are bored with the bland offerings in the market at the moment. The Caliber is a striking looking car that combines great diesel and petrol engines, lots of interior space, European standards of ride and handling plus affordable pricing."
