FCA Canada today reported March 2019 sales of 21,684.
“Our dealers are excited to welcome the new Ram Heavy Duty on the heels of a month where the outgoing model saw sales rise nine per cent,” said FCA Canada President and CEO Reid Bigland. “Zooming out, Ram 1500 remains the second highest-selling vehicle in the country and anticipation for the 2020 Jeep® Gladiator midsize pickup truck could not be higher.”
Jeep Grand Cherokee sales of 1,933 were up 45 per cent compared with 1,333 vehicles reported in March of 2018. These results earn Jeep Grand Cherokee the claim of number-one-selling full-size SUV for the month and year to date in Canada; it also signifies a March sales record.

Dodge Charger led the brand increase with 1,021 vehicle sales, marking a 67 per cent jump from the same month in 2018.
