Jeep Grand Cherokee look

Japan was once a decent market for Chrysler – the Detroit automaker sold 15,000 vehicles annually there as recently as 1996 – but sales totaled just 2,350 units in 2010. The Jeep Grand Cherokee accounted for only 88 of those sales, but Chrysler has bigger expectations for the revised version of the SUV.

Chrysler is also planning to launch the new version of its 300C sedan in Japan, but it won’t arrive until late 2011 or early 2012. The new Chrysler 200 sedan will arrive even later, slated for a late 2012 or early 2013 market launch. The 300C is currently the only Chrysler-badged vehicle available in Japan.
