Chrysler Group has just reported U.S. sales of 138,019, a 37 percent increase compared with sales in December 2010. These were the best monthly figures they had since May 2008, and it was enough to help them secure a 26 percent increase for the who year.
Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram Truck brands each posted solid sales gains during 2011 compared with figures last year, as the Group saw its 21st consecutive month of increases. December’s results were driven in part by strong sales of the Chrysler 300 flagship sedan, Chrysler 200 mid-size sedan, Dodge Charger and Avenger sport sedans.

“Chrysler Group finished a year of growth on a strong note with our December retail sales soaring 45 percent to our highest dealer retail sales in four years,” said Reid Bigland, President and CEO – Dodge Brand and Head of US Sales. “Looking back, we were the fastest-growing automaker in the country, increasing our market share 1.3 percentage points during 2011.”
