Accolades continue to mount for the Jeep brand’s premium SUV as the 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee received the highest spot in vehicle satisfaction for the “Premium Mid-size SUV” category in AutoPacific’s 15th annual Vehicle Satisfaction Awards. The Grand Cherokee has captured 30 awards since introduction last summer, including the prestigious Ward’s “10 Best Interiors” award.

The new Jeep Compass posted a 92 percent sales increase in May versus last year, and is up 12 percent compared with sales during the previous month of April.

Both the Light Duty and Heavy Duty pickup trucks, along with the Chassis Cab, saw year-over-year sales gains. This was the brand’s 13th consecutive month of year-over-year sales gains.

In May, the Ram Truck brand introduced the Ram “Long-Hauler” Concept Truck, a vehicle designed for hauling, range and comfort. On display at select events across the country, the Ram Long-Hauler is based on a Class 5 Ram 5500 Chassis Cab, and is designed to tow multiple or heavy trailers and drive long distances.

Also in May, Chrysler Group, working in partnership with the U.S. Department of Energy, delivered the first of a demonstration fleet of Ram 1500 plug-in hybrid electric (PHEV) pickup trucks to municipal officials in Yuma, Ariz. The 10 PHEV Ram 1500 pickups are part of a national demonstration fleet of 140 vehicles that will be used during the next three years to evaluate customer usage, drive cycles, charging, thermal management, fuel economy, emissions and impact on the region’s electric grid.

The Journey received a major overhaul with a completely redesigned and retuned suspension, the new 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine that delivers 283 hp and 260 lb.-ft. of torque, along with excellent fuel economy of up to 25 miles per gallon on the highway, and a gorgeous new interior.

The brand in May launched a new advertising campaign for the all-new Chrysler 300. The new advertising campaign continues the “Imported from Detroit” messaging featured in the Chrysler 200 Super Bowl commercial and takes it to a new level by delivering insightful stories of people who possess an exceptional capacity for hard work.

Need a three row vehicle and have been thinking about getting a Town & Country. It will be interesting to see if Chrysler raises their incentives this month. If only I could get them to give me better trade in money. The local Ford dealer will give me $1k-2k more trade-in than the two Chrysler dealers we've taken it two and we get A-plan at Ford and only Friends & Family at Chrysler. Even though I'm routing for Chrysler, I'm not sure the minivan is worth $3k more than we could get a Ford Flex for.

On a side note, I never would have even considered a minivan until we rented a '11 Grand Caravan for a week a couple of weeks ago. It was much, much better than the '10 model I had rented only 6 months before. It honestly totally changed my perception of the thing.

So glad Chrysler's huge, hilarious marketing effort for the revamped Compass has been a waste... when it comes to tiny, faux Jeeps, Patriot is still the favorite. Good for you, Jeep buyers... no wool over your eyes!

did you miss a sarcasm tag there? Compass is up 92% for the month and 83% YTD even though they raised the price on it substantially.

Nah, I'm looking at sales figures. Patriot, even though it has all but gone invisible in Jeep ads, still outsells the Compass, which has been crammed into every Jeep advertisement, it seems, this year. No sarcasm. These tiny twins can be compared and used as an example of what Jeep buyers are looking for.
