An Exciting Next Few Years for Chrysler/Fiat
While many thought the Chrysler Dodge Jeep lineup in the next few years would be minimal, there are, in fact, more new models slated to be rolled out from now through 2013 than there are to be axed. Many of these new models will be produced in partenership with Chrysler’s new mate, Fiat.
For Dodge, an all new Columbia Charger is expected sometime in 2010. A new small car, in partnership with the Fiat Group, will be produced in 2013. A new mid-size truck with a unibody will replace the Dakota in 2011. And for commercial use, a van and small commercial truck (shared from Fiat) will be produced in 2012.
Jeep will lose the Jeep Commander, but a new diesel Wrangler model will come in the end of 2010. A new small SUV with a 2013 launch will likely be imported from Fiat.
A new small crossover also with a 2013 launch wills consolidate both the Compass and Patriot. The Jeep Liberty will be replaced by a Fiat product in 2013, but will likely carry on the Liberty name. And the Jeep Grand Cherokee redesign debuts in the end of 2010 as a 2011 model.
Chrysler gets a brand new logo along with a few new models. There’s a new Chrysler 300 model coming in 2010. A new Fiat-sourced small car will arrive in 2013. A C-segment vehicle, sourced from Fiat, will replace the PT Cruiser within the next few years. A new midsize crossover vehicle will launch in 2013, sourced by Fiat. A new redesigned Town & Country will launch in 2014. And a replacement for the Sebring is scheduled to appear in the latter part of 2010 as a mid sized sedan.
