| Chrysler will pay up to $500 per month for a total of $1,000 on most vehicles. Customers also get the option of taking $3,000 to $4,000 in cash or making a "regret-free" purchase, in which they could return any new vehicle within 60 days if they're not satisfied. Other July incentives include zero-percent financing on most Chrysler, Dodge, Ram and Jeep vehicles. All the deals are set to end Aug. 2. Automakers have been trying to limit incentives, which erode profits and hurt brand image. On average, incentive spending was down $169 per vehicle in June compared with the same month last year, according to auto information company Edmunds.com. It might have fallen even further if not for Toyota Motor Corp., which normally offers few incentives but has pumped up spending since March after a spate of safety recalls. Toyota spent $2,117 per vehicle in June, more than double what it spent in June 2009. Chrysler's new deals could turn around the anti-incentive trend, which has been a drag on sales, Edmunds CEO Jeremy Anwyl said. The industry has been spooked by weaker-than-expected June sales. U.S. auto sales fell more than 10 percent from May as buyers continued to worry about the economy. Chrysler's sales dropped 12 percent from May. |
