Sales Highlights:
Ram set a brand and pickup truck sales record in July. With the recent announcement that every single 2015 Ram pickup truck will come with a trailer-tow rating achieved using SAE’s J2807 testing protocols, comes validation that Ram beats the competition in the two most sought-after titles in the pickup truck market, fuel economy and SAE towing capacity. This kind of continuous innovation has led Ram to experience a record-breaking July with 8,095 trucks sold, compared with 7,854 sold in July of 2013. These results mark the 19th consecutive month of year-over- year increases for Ram pickup truck sales.
The Jeep brand also set a July sales record, led by Jeep Wrangler. In fact, with 2,797 units sold, Jeep Wrangler achieved its highest month of sales ever. The iconic Jeep Wrangler – the most capable and recognized vehicle in the world – delivers unmatched off-road capability with legendary four-wheel drive and is produced with more than seven decades of 4×4 engineering experience.
Lastly, the Windsor-build Dodge Grand Caravan had a strong month in July 2014, with 5,809 sales compared with 5,286 in July 2013. Coupled with the Chrysler Town & Country, these Chrysler Group minivans command 70 per cent of the minivan market in Canada and remain the best-selling minivans in the world. Recently, the respected automotive website Edmonds.com issued a Top Rated Vehicles awards list, naming Dodge Grand Caravan as “2014 Most Popular on Edmonds.com” in the minivan category.
