Chrysler Hikes Prices by 3%: Chrysler Corp. said base prices of its 1991-model North American-built cars have been increased by 3%, or an average $37 per vehicle, to cover higher energy-related costs. Spokesman Tom Jakobowski said prices on Chrysler’s 1991-model minivans and Jeeps were also raised by less than 3%, while prices on its other light truck lines were raised by less than 2%. The price adjustments by the nation’s No. 3 auto maker range from no change on several models to increases of about $50 on such models as the Plymouth Acclaim sedan and all Dodge, Plymouth and Chrysler minivans, Jakobowski said.
