Chrysler Enjoys One of its Best Mays Ever

Best May Sales - ChryslerDealerNY - Bayside Chrysler Jeep Dodge

May was another good month for Chrysler.  Sales were up, a 4 percent increase from May of last year.  In fact, May 2015 was the company’s best May sales since 2005.

The strong leader amongst the various brands is till Jeep.  Jeep has been helping Chrysler maintain the sales streak it has been enjoying for now 62 months of year-over-year sales gains.  The brand had a sales increase of 13 percent with May being the best monthly sales ever for Jeep.  The Cherokee and the Wrangler had their best sales months ever and the other winner was the Patriot with it also having the best sales in May.  New for Jeep this month was the Renegade which had its sales increase 5 percent from April.

The other brands faired very well also.  Chrysler was up 32 percent with the new 2015 Chrysler 200 increasing 537 percent from last year.  If there was any proof that people were excited for a new take on the 200, there is some proof right there.  It had the largest year-over-year percentage gain of any FCA US vehicle.  That new model sure did some good in generating sales and excitement with consumers.

Ram truck sales continue to climb.  The ProMaster had its sales increase 12 percent as the whole of Ram trucks increased 8 percent in May.  Like the others, May was the best sales for Ram pickups in 11 years.

And finally Dodge, not to be left out, also had an amazing May.  With a sales increase of 29 percent, this was the brand’s best monthly sales ever.  The winners were the Dodge Dart and the Durango which had an increase of their sales.  The Durango had its best May sales since 2005.

2015 Chrysler 200 Spy Photos

Cue the dramatic music because the auto spies have discovered an uncovered 2015 Chrysler 200.

As much as I want to believe we have spies working all hours of the day to uncover the secrets at Chrysler, these shots come courtesy of Autonews.com.  The photos they obtained appear to be from a photo shoot for a marketing campaign for the update to the Chrysler 200.

The news of the update has been spread around already but this is the first real look at one.  All that’s been known up to this point is that the 200 would be borrowing from other Chrysler brethren such as the Dodge Dart and Jeep Cherokee’s CUSW platform as well as the new nine-speed transmission.

The 2015 Chrysler 200 will not be skimping out on any features.  The latest technologies that Chrysler has come up with in such as gas-saving will be implemented on the 200.  Chrysler is pushing the 200 to be a major competitor in the market and is hoping that this update will make it stand out.  Keep your eyes peeled for more information as it becomes available on the update to the Chrysler 200.
