Marc Sheinbaum, auto finance CEO at Chase, said: “By working together, we will use our combined strength to provide dealers and consumers with products and services to drive sales under the Mazda brand.”
Chase was the top auto lender in the United States in new loan production in 2009, lending US$23.7bn to finance 1.1m new and used vehicles for consumers.
