Can the new Chrysler compete with car manfacturers such as Subaru, Ford and Honda?

Chrysler just reported a strong first quarter.

They reported strong sales of their brands:  Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango, S.U.V.’s and the Chrysler 300 and 200 sedans. These vehicles probably use a lot of gasoline and while Chrysler may have increased their cars fuel efficiency and overall reliability these are still large vehicles.

Chrysler may have just made a big comeback from bankruptcy , but did they make the right decision to keep in making these types of vehicles? Perhaps they would have been better off creating and manufacturing small fuel efficient cars that were more affordable and made to sell to the general public.

Many of us recognize that in this economy we need to be careful with our purchases and be better stewards of the environment.

Which means that we are going to be looking for cars that are fuel efficient, durable and economical.

Will these cars be able to compete with the high fuel efficiency cars being made by Honda, Ford and Subaru?
Will they be made to last? Will they be reasonably priced?
