Chrysler Picks Small Car Over Chrysler Crossover
May 13, 2008
Chrysler will focus on designing a small car to be manufactured by Nissan and forgo plans
to build a Chrysler version of the Dodge Journey.
Chrysler had planned for the Chrysler crossover in 2009 but will use the savings to help pay for designing a compact car to be made by Nissan, Chrysler's James Press said Monday.
The cancellation of the Chrysler Journey shows Press is advancing his plan to reduce the number of models Chrysler brands sell, and eliminate overlap between the divisions.
It is also an illustration of how Chrysler is cash-strapped.
