Chrysler Group To Offer Diesel-Powered Jeep(R) Liberty for North American Market
To encourage North American acceptance of diesel-powered vehicles, DaimlerChrysler will test the U.S. and Canadian markets with a diesel-powered Jeep(R) Liberty beginning in 2004, Dieter Zetsche, President and C.E.O. of the Chrysler Group announced at a DaimlerChrysler Symposium on Innovation here today. "The best way to show our confidence in diesel technology is to bring a modern, clean diesel passenger vehicle to market, which we intend to do," Zetsche said. "We would like to see the oil refiners commit to producing and distributing high quality, low-sulfur fuel as soon as possible."
