May 31, 2012 , Windsor, Ontario - Chrysler Canada today announced the company’s 30th consecutive month of year-over-year sales growth. May sales were 26,218 compared to 24,406 in May 2011, representing a 7 per cent increase.

“There have only been three months in the last 10 years that have hit the 26,000 sales mark and I’m thrilled to count May 2012 among them” said Dave Buckingham, Chief Operating Officer of Chrysler Canada. “We have always been strong on the truck side of our business with Ram trucks and Dodge Grand Caravan being among the Top 5 best-selling vehicles in the country… but to see such strong consistent sales results from our fuel-efficient cars demonstrates the sustainability of our success.”
