FCA US Reports Fourth-quarter and Full-year 2019 Sales
AUBURN HILLS,
Mich., Jan. 3, 2020
/PRNewswire/ --
- Ram brand reports record fourth-quarter and full-year
sales
- Jeep® Wrangler achieves record fourth-quarter sales of more
than 52,012 vehicles
- Jeep Grand Cherokee notches record full-year sales of
242,969 vehicles
- Dodge Charger reports best fourth-quarter sales since
2007
FCA US LLC closed the fourth quarter and 2019 with a handful of
records as America's love of capability, power and speed pushed Ram
and Jeep® to new sales levels.
Topping the year were the successful launches of the redesigned
Ram Heavy Duty pickup trucks and the Jeep Gladiator. The Gladiator
finished 2019 with 40,047 vehicle sales following its May
debut.
U.S. sales for the fourth quarter were 542,519 vehicles, down 2
percent, while sales for the year were down 1 percent at 2,203,663
vehicles. Retail sales were 419,273 vehicles for the quarter. Fleet
accounted for 22.7 percent of total sales.
The Ram brand led the portfolio with record-setting sales of
190,655 for the quarter and 703,023 vehicles for the year – an 18
percent increase over 2018. It was the highest level of sales since
Ram became a standalone brand in 2009.
Jeep Wrangler, which notched a variety of records throughout the
year, reported its highest fourth quarter with sales of 52,012
vehicles. Grand Cherokee reported a full-year record with sales of
242,969 vehicles.
Dodge also bucked the trend in passenger cars by turning in one
of its strongest years. The Charger notched sales of 25,829
vehicles for the quarter -- the best fourth quarter for the
nameplate since 2007 -- and 96,935 vehicles for the year, the best
since 2013. Dodge muscle cars Charger and Challenger combined
sales in the second half were a record 84,216 vehicles.
"Our dealers did an outstanding job in 2019, not only with
meeting consumer demand, but also handling the introduction of the
redesigned Ram Heavy Duty and new Jeep Gladiator," said
Reid Bigland, Head of U.S. Sales.
"We have read the expectations that sales may slow a bit in 2020.
However, we believe there is still plenty of demand in the market
and we are ready for a new year."

nameplate sales.
