CHRYSLER

  Founder/Parent Company: Walter Chrysler
  

The third part of the triad, Chrysler remains one of the best auto production companies in the US by definition, in spite of having been purchased by Fiat. With almost 100 years of history behind it, Chrysler has undergone massive transformation ever since it’s beginning. The Daimler Benz merger in 2007 and the major bankruptcy reorganization dictated by the 2009 financial crisis are two of the main events the company underwent before being purchased by Fiat S.p.A. in May 2014. The duo now functions as the Chrysler Group.

Chrysler Sedan
It looks like the acquisition benefited the auto giant; sales reportedly grew a big 20% in August 2014, whereas for Ford and GM things don’t look equally stunning. This may well be due to Chrysler’s massive evolution in the luxury sedan section: the 300 models rank high among the best affordable large sedans in the US.

DODGE

• 
  Years: 1900 – Present
  
• 
  Headquarters: Auburn Hills, Michigan, United States
  
• 
  Founder/Parent Company: John Francis Dodge, Horace Elgin Dodge
  

This brand remains one of the all-time typically American made cars. Of the 11 models in production, the Charger and Challenger remain the most popular.

Dodge Charger
With an extra 13 models manufactured and abandoned ever since its beginning, Dodge only performs well in the truck department: out of all its separate models, the Ram pickup and the Dodge Caravan seem to be boosting overall sales for Chrysler.
