- Shortly after DeSoto had introduced it first automobile ever, the  Six Series K (August 4th, 1928), Chrysler completed its purchase of the Dodge Brothers (August 31th, 1928), giving the company two mid-priced makes. Had the transaction been completed sooner, DeSoto never would have been introduced.
