   Chrysler Group, consisting of the Chrysler, Jeep(R) and Dodge brands,
posted sales of 183,347 vehicles in the U.S., a 1 percent decline in June.

efficiency of its new cars and small SUVs; Chrysler Group combined car
sales increased 55 percent for the month. In addition, led by the sales
momentum of the Jeep Wrangler, total Jeep brand sales rose 19 percent in
June. Following its most aggressive product launch in company history of 10
all-new vehicles in 2006, Chrysler Group continues its product offensive
with the launch of eight all-new vehicles in 2007.
   MBUSA's sales highlights for the month include gains from the
entry-level of the Mercedes portfolio, the C-Class, to its high-end
CL-Class. Compared to June of last year, C-Class sedans posted a 12 percent
increase (4,776 vs. 4,250 units), and CL-Class coupes recorded a 322
percent jump (266 vs. 63 units). Year-to-date, MBUSA recorded its best
first-half of the year ever with 118,240 units sold in the first six months
of the year, a 3 percent increase over the same period last year.
