Chrysler has donated to vehicles to aid in the rescue efforts of the victims of the earthquake that hit Italy. Chrysler, in cooperation with its supplier, VM Motori S.p.A., has donated a Jeep Liberty (Cherokee model outside of North America) and a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited to the Italian Civil Protection Department (Dipartimento della Protezione Civile).
The Jeep vehicles were being used for diesel emissions testing and engine development at VM Motori, a diesel engine manufacturing company located in Cento, Italy.
“Chrysler LLC donated a Jeep Cherokee and Jeep Wrangler to the Italian Civil Protection Department so it has the additional resources it needs for response interventions and initiatives to assist the people of the Abruzzo region after this devastating disaster,” said John T. Bozzella – Senior Vice President, External Affairs and Public Policy/President, The Chrysler Foundation.
