Jeep Four-Wheel-Drive Innovation Wins Walter P. Chrysler Technology Award

Posted on February 28, 2014 by baysideadmin

Earlier this week, the Walter P. Chrysler Technology Award was given to engineers Don Schmanski, Mike Nemeth, Joe Kubina, and Pete Jarzyna for their critical work on the 2014 Jeep Cherokee.

The team was being honored for their work on U.S. Patent No. 8172712, the four-wheel-drive system available in the 2014 Jeep Cherokee. Thanks to this innovation, the 2014 Jeep Cherokee has crawl ratios up to 56:1, and the fuel economy has been improved by 2.5 percent.

Their patent was chosen out of 44 patented technologies developed at Chrysler Group in the past year, beating out U.S. Patent No. 8182016, a new seat assembly allowing forward or rear-facing seating positions, and U.S. Patent 8096044, an apparatus for setting the door and quarter-glass in a convertible vehicle body prior to assembling the convertible top.

Schmanski, Nemeth, Kubina, and Jarzyna have received commemorative medallions honoring their achievement, and the entire team’s names will be etched on a trophy which is on display at Chrysler Group headquarters.

Jeep Cherokee Leads Strong December Sales

Posted on January 8, 2014 by baysideadmin

December was a strong month for Chrysler’s sales. Ever since the bailout, every month has been a story of how the auto company has rebounded from oblivion and into solid sales again. This last December marks the 45th consecutive month of year-over-year sales gains for Chrysler. The month’s gains were attributed by the company to two new popular vehicles.

The 2014 Jeep Cherokee was seen as one of reasons why Chrysler sales grew 6 percent from December in 2012. Since the Cherokee went on sale in October, it has been a hit with drivers. It has since outsold the popular Jeep Wrangler in December. The sales Jeep posted with help from the Cherokee was a 34 percent gain over last year’s December. That is the best December sales ever for Jeep.
