“For the third quarter of 2023, our newest entries, Dodge Hornet and Alfa Romeo Tonale, attracted notable consumer interest and sales, alongside standout performance from Jeep® Grand Cherokee, Jeep Compass and our Brampton-made Dodge Charger and Challenger,” said Jason Stoicevich, president – Canada, Stellantis. “With five plug-in hybrid electric vehicles now in our dealers’ showrooms and many all-new, all battery-electric vehicles planned for 2024, we continue to deliver on the bold ambitions set out in our Dare Forward 2030 plan.”
Jeep Grand Cherokee, the most awarded SUV ever, saw Q3 sales rise 22% for the lineup, compared with Q3 2022. Jeep Compass also saw impressive increases of 35% for the third quarter. Sales of Wagoneer by Jeep brand vehicles improved by 13% for the quarter, as more Canadians embraced its premium American craftsmanship.
Ram brand’s light-duty truck sales continue to be strong, earning a position as a top-three selling vehicle nameplate in Canada, calendar-year to date. Through the first three quarters of 2023, Ram pickup truck sales rose 6%, with the entire Ram brand also marking a 6% increase in year-to-date sales.
Dodge brand’s new Hornet compact utility vehicle generated buzz in the third quarter of 2023. Over that period, 1,024 examples were sold, including Dodge Hornet R/T PHEV plug-in hybrid — the first electrified performance vehicle from the brand — offering the most power in the segment and up to 53 kilometres of all-electric range. In their final year of production at the Brampton Assembly Plant, Dodge Charger and Challenger continue to perform well with sales up 220% and 72% respectively for the third quarter and also increasing CYTD.
Positive news continues for the Canadian-made Chrysler minivan family, which saw sales increase again for the quarter to 2,328 units. The company recently marked both the production of the 100,000th Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid in Windsor, Ontario, and also 40 years of minivan leadership.
Tonale, the newest member of the Alfa Romeo family, led the brand’s Q3 sales with 289 vehicles sold. As the first model to showcase Alfa Romeo’s electrified metamorphosis, it is available with a sophisticated plug-in hybrid powertrain, delivering a best-in-class 285 horsepower and an electric range of more than 53 kilometres.
