While Chrysler may have reported a reduction in their sales in North America, a bright spot appeared for them in the form of increased sales outside of North America. The Chrysler group recently announced their sales figure for those regions outside of North America.
The report stated that the company posted an increase by 9 percent in sales for the month of February this year over last year for the same period. The group also reported that they have sold 10 percent more vehicles for the first two months of this year compared to the first two months of last year.
The three brands under the Chrysler group combined to set their highest sales figures for the month of February since 1998. The increase in sales also marks the 21st month that the company has managed to increase their sales output over the previous month. This is certainly welcome news for the car maker since they have been suffering losses on their own turf. In fact, the woes being faced by the car maker has lead to rumors that it may be sold by DaimlerChrysler AG after it announced that they will be reducing their workforce, close down a plant, and reduce shifts on others.
