Today the press has informed:
DETROIT — Chrysler and Nissan Motor of Japan said Monday that they had agreed to build vehicles for each other in a deal that could signal closer cooperation in the future.
Chrysler, which is based in Auburn Hills, Mich., and has been cutting truck production as demand falls for less fuel-efficient vehicles, will make a full-size pickup based on the Dodge Ram for Nissan at a factory in Saltillo, Mexico. In turn, Nissan will assemble a small car for Chrysler in Oppama, Japan. Both vehicles will be sold in North America, though Chrysler plans to sell the car in Europe and other markets, too.
