Chrysler’s January sales outside North America rose increased 12% year on year to 16,784 units, making it the second-best January in Chrysler International history.


The automaker has now posted 32 consecutive months of year-over-year sales growth abroad.


Chrysler’s minivans were the company’s highest volume export vehicles in January (2,525 units), followed by the Dodge Caliber (1,912 units) and Chrysler 300C (1,894 units).


Growth was balanced among established and emerging markets. Italy, Chrysler’s highest volume market outside North America, grew sales 16% (1,854 units). Eastern European sales grew by 59%, and sales in China nearly tripled those of January 2007.


“Continued growth in international markets is key to Chrysler’s success moving forward and we have set a high bar for ourselves, with 2007 being our most successful sales year in markets outside North America in the history of the company,” international sales head Michael Manley said.
