SIRIUS Satellite Radios In Chrysler Cars!

The “Best Radio on Radio” will be available in seventy percent of Chrysler’s vehicles! This was the good news that I came across yesterday at Autochannel.com while I was purchasing a Honda Del Sol radiator and Subaru CV joint. The “Best Radio on Radio” that I’m talking about is the SIRIUS Satellite radio!

SIRIUS provides more than 130 channels of the finest programming in all of the radios around the planet. The SIRIUS satellite radio is the innovative and the only home of 100 percent commercial free music channels in satellite radio which provides 69 music channels. SIRIUS also offers 65 channels of sports, news, talk, entertainment, traffic, weather and data. And for everybody’s information, SIRIUS is the Official Satellite Radio Partner of the NFL, NASCAR and NBA, and televises live play-by-play games of the NFL and NBA and NASCAR races. Whew! So much for an excellent introduction. Let’s get down to the real good news!

"We are excited about the growth of SIRIUS with Chrysler Group and its customers," said Mel Karmazin, the CEO of SIRIUS. "We are very proud that SIRIUS is featured in high volume in Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicles, and we look forward to continued mutual success with our partners at Chrysler Group."

From the news that I’ve read yesterday, SIRIUS Satellite Radio has announced that the Chrysler Group will be expecting the SIRIUS Satellite Radio to be installed in more than 70% of Chrysler’s range of 2008 models. From the previous year, only around 40 percent of Chrysler’s vehicles have been installed with the satellite radio. SIRIUS will be integrated as one of the standard features mainly on Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep models’ mid-level price and premium classes! I guess everyone’s excited about this!

For new car buyers, they can automatically enjoy and start listening to SIRIUS music upon getting the freshly delivered vehicle. It will be a pure standard feature on the Chrysler Sebring and Aspen, the all-new Dodge Challenger and Nitro, and the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Commander. So what are you waiting for? I think it’s about time to get a great vehicle with the best radio in the planet!

"SIRIUS Satellite Radio is an entertainment feature our customers clearly enjoy and are demanding more and more. We are pleased to enhance our customers' driving and ownership experience by offering SIRIUS entertainment and technology throughout the Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge vehicle portfolio," said Christine MacKenzie, the Executive Director for Multi-brand Marketing and Agency Relations of the Chrysler Group.
