Shanghai. November 23 (Gasgoo.com) – The separation of Daimler-Chrysler will have no impact on Chryler’s sourcing operations in China, Chrysler’s chief executive officer of its Asian operations, Philip Murtaugh said at the sidelines of the Guangzhou Auto Show last week.

Chrysler is a new business entity and Chrysler International is a business branch under Daimler-Chrysler. As an international technology provider, Chrysler International has technology cooperation agreements with Southeast Motors and Beijing Benz DaimlerChrysler Corporation, Murtaugh said.

DaimlerChrysler planned to source $840 million worth auto parts from Chinese suppliers in 2008, former Chairman and CEO of DaimlerChrysler & Northeast Asia, Dr. Till Becker said in 2006. “These auto parts will be used in vehicles produced by DaimlerChrysler joint ventures in China, including both Mecedes-Benz and Chrysler brands vehicles.”
