  • To All Chrysler Employees, Dealers, Suppliers and Other Stakeholders
    To all Chrysler employees, dealers, suppliers and other stakeholders: With this week’s announcement of our nonbinding agreement for a strategic alliance with Fiat, I want to update you on where we stand in our continuing efforts to manage our business through the current economic downturn and put Chrysler on a path to long-term success. This potential alliance has the opportunity to greatly benefit America by preserving American jobs, stabilizing the economy including the important domestic auto industry and expanding the availability of small, fuel efficient automobiles. Throughout this process we will work with the U.S. government to ensure Chrysler meets all the terms of the U.S. Treasury loan agreement, including the submission of a restructuring plan that assures Chrysler’s long-term viability, timely loan repayment and energy efficiency. It is important to note that no U.S. taxpayer funds would go to Fiat. Our Vision, Mission and Strategic Framework Continues One year ago, we began our first full year as an independent company with a three- part strategic framework to help focus our efforts and align our resources toward our goal of returning to profitability. The framework is comprised of three basic principles: Enhance our core: invest in product enhancements; strengthen our customer focus; improve our relationship with our dealers; and recommit the entire organization to a new level of quality. Extend our business: develop or establish partnerships to provide new products; build off of existing products to extend into new segments; explore new and adjacent market opportunities; and accelerate new technologies and innovation. Expand our market: pursue global alliances to fill gaps in our product portfolio and open new geographic opportunities; increase global sales by building from our existing dealer network; and invest closer to our global customers by enhancing regional business operations and global engineering centers.

  • Strategic Automotive Technologies: the Eco-Friendly Revolution
    E-Leader Prague 2015 Strategic Automotive Technologies: The Eco-Friendly Revolution Frank Owarish, Ph.D. Executive Director International Institute for Strategic Research and Training New York, New York, USA Abstract This paper is a compilation paper, in that it compiles credible sets of information available on the various aspects of the subject with an educational purpose in mind. It also has analytical aspects. From evolution to revolution Transportation systems have been key to human progress and are the basis of the modern civilization hinging on the Industrial Revolution. The invention of the internal combustion engine was an absolute turning point; even today its use is crucial despite significant development of other technologies powering cars, trucks, buses Origin of the internal combustion engine The first person to experiment with an internal-combustion engine was the Dutch physicist Christian Huygens, about 1680. But no effective gasoline-powered engine was developed until 1859, when the French engineer J. J. Étienne Lenoir built a double-acting, spark-ignition engine that could be operated continuously. In 1862 Alphonse Beau de Rochas, a French scientist, patented but did not build a four-stroke engine; sixteen years later, when Nikolaus A. Otto built a successful four-stroke engine, it became known as the "Otto cycle." The first successful two- stroke engine was completed in the same year by Sir Dougald Clerk, in a form which (simplified somewhat by Joseph Day in 1891) remains in use today. George Brayton, an American engineer, had developed a two-stroke kerosene engine in 1873, but it was too large and too slow to be commercially successful.

    Contact: Dianna Gutierrez Todd Goyer ENVI: Environmentally Responsible Electric-drive Vehicle Technology January 13, 2008, Detroit - Chrysler’s three concept vehicles for the 2008 North American International Auto Show provide a glimpse into how Chrysler envisions surprising and delighting its future customers through seamless integration of advance production technology into its future product portfolio. ENVI, an in-house Chrysler organization, was formed late last year with a focus on establishing Chrysler leadership in electric-drive vehicles and related advanced-propulsion technologies. Team members were selected for their exceptional skills in portfolio management, modular architecture, product engineering, manufacturing, design, and procurement and supply. “ENVI has an entrepreneurial small company spirit that can apply the vast resources available at Chrysler to create environmentally responsible vehicles customers aspire to own,” said Lou Rhodes, President – ENVI, Chrysler LLC. “With ENVI, Chrysler will be able to quickly address the unique dynamic that is taking place between changing consumer attitudes, the worldwide regulatory landscape, and the acceleration of propulsion technologies.” Providing exceptional fuel economy and reducing emissions is part of Chrysler’s environmental commitment, thus allowing customers to make environmentally responsible choices without compromising their mobility needs. “Electrically driven vehicles are zero emission vehicles,” said Rhodes. “Generating electricity from renewable sources to power tomorrow’s vehicles breaks the dependency on fossil fuels and promotes the development of renewal and clean energy production.” Engaging the Customer ENVI will develop electric-drive vehicles and technologies that draw from our customer insights for each of the Chrysler brands—Chrysler, Jeep® and Dodge. “We are committed to deeply understanding the needs of our future customers by being market focused and customer-centric,” Rhodes said.
