Chrysler – other models: collective page of group vehicles in commercial N1 registration, from the Cherokee and Wrangler through the Dakota and Ram to the Town & Country and Pacifica

This page gathers Chrysler-group vehicles the register could not assign to a named range of its own – from off-roaders such as the Cherokee and Wrangler through the Dakota and Ram pickups to the Town & Country and Pacifica vans, all registered commercially in class N1 as a van or estate. Chrysler was founded in 1925 in Detroit, took over American Motors together with the Jeep brand in 1987, and merged with Daimler-Benz into DaimlerChrysler in 1998, before the group became independent again in 2007 and today trades as part of Stellantis; models from several group brands – Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, Plymouth – were at times sold together in Europe through Chrysler's distribution network.

The register lists here 50 versions with displacements from 2,490 to 5,900 cm³ from four- to eight-cylinders, unladen weights from 1,330 to 2,920 kg against gross weights of 1,975 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,770 to 2,150 mm; outputs are recorded for a handful of entries at 85 to 105 kW, lengths at 4,250 to 5,200 mm.

As a collective page it shows the breadth of the group range sold in Europe through the joint Chrysler-Jeep-Dodge distribution, from off-road leisure vehicles through family vans to American pickups; the N1 registration was used above all by commercial keepers in the Netherlands.

On used examples, the V8 engines call for checking the valvetrain and cooling, automatic gearboxes for regular oil changes, and the frame and sills for rust, while four-wheel-drive versions need the transfer case and axles checked; parts run through the Stellantis parts network.

What to check before buying

  • Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
  • Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
  • Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
  • Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
