Facing tighter fuel efficiency rules, Chrysler pulls plug on Imperial
|
DETROIT - Chrysler, expecting tighter fuel efficiency standards in
the United States, has scrapped production plans for a large luxury
vehicle to be built near Toronto.
In March, the local union at the Brampton, Ontario, assembly plant
agreed to contract concessions in exchange for the promise of a $700
million Canadian investment at the facility to prepare for the luxury
Imperial. The vehicle would have been larger and heavier than any car
now in Chrysler's lineup.
