It’s been an interesting time for Chrysler as they seem to be wandering around looking for another car company with which to deal. Working with the Chinese rip-off company Chery didn’t exactly work out all that well, so it looks like Chrysler is now setting its sights on Nissan.
The idea is for Nissan to supply a next-generation pickup in exchange for a small car based on the Nissan Versa. This collaboration is certainly pleasing both parties involved, so it looks as though the deal may stretch beyond the original agreement.
According to a report, Nissan and Chrysler are working out the kinks on a deal that would involve the Japanese company supplying Chrysler with a new line of midsize sedans. The deal would contract Nissan to build sedans that Chrysler would sell in the United States.
The Nissan 2007 model year was quite good, while the 2007 models for Chrysler didn’t do all that well. The Sebring and the Avenger were introduced for Chrysler, but the company stumbled in marketing and selling the sedans. By turning to the Nissan 2007 strategy, Chrysler hopes to use their new best friends to help them gain some ground.
How Nissan cars will benefit from the deal remains to be seen, but Chrysler surely could use the help with augmenting their image.
