Auburn Hills, Mich. - Chrysler Group LLC has taken 10 of
its Chrysler, Jeep®, Dodge and Ram Truck vehicles on the road in a
10-week mobile showroom.
The new and exciting mobile
marketing tour is designed for thousands of employees that work for
Chrysler Group affiliate companies and suppliers like Case New Holland,
Comau, 3M, Union Pacific Railroad and Mohawk
Industries.
The cross-country tour launched last week
and will continue through mid-November, providing affiliate and
supplier employees with a great opportunity to preview both 2011 and
2010 Chrysler Group vehicles in a pressure-free
environment.
The mobile showroom will visit 50
companies that combined have more than 22,000 employees. The vehicles
are being transported to each location in three trailers wrapped in
festive Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Ram Truck and Mopar brand graphics. One
of the trucks features a Dodge Viper ACR visible through a display
window.
The caravan will travel about 12,000 miles during the
10-week excursion.
"We're taking the showroom
directly to our affiliate and supplier employees, where they can check
out our 2011 models and talk to our product specialists in a fun and
relaxed environment right at work," said Fred Diaz, President and Chief
Executive Officer of the Ram Truck Brand and Lead Executive for U.S.
Sales.
The mobile showroom was launched with the
all-new 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2011 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, 2011
Dodge Caliber, 2011 Ram 1500 and 2011 Ram 2500. The 2010 model year
vehicles are the Chrysler 300S, Chrysler Town & Country, Dodge
Journey, Dodge Challenger and the Dodge Viper ACR. Additional 2011 model
year vehicles will be added to the tour as they become
available.
Chrysler Group is proud to recognize the
business relationship with its affiliate and supplier companies by
offering these employees a discount on their next vehicle purchase or
lease. The discount is in addition to most consumer incentives available
at the time of the sale at Chrysler Group
dealerships.
The stops this week include 3M in St.
Paul, Minn. and Case New Holland locations in Fargo, N.D. and Benson,
Minn.
