Dodge Launches New Marketing Campaign For Its New C-UV...​

Dodge has recently launched a new marketing campaign called “Swarming the Nation” to promote its latest electric performance vehicle, the Dodge Hornet (GG). The campaign includes a 90-second video posted on Dodge’s social media channels, a 30-second TV commercial, and 15-second teasers. The brand aims to disrupt the mainstream compact-utility vehicle (CUV) segment by introducing a new breed of electrified performance.

Pure late day Daimler and Cerebrus Junk. Fiat made it passable, but the canvas was spoiled to begin with. Appliance for sure, driving dynamics were pitiful.

my dad loved his and with 200k still drives great... it was hit and miss with them. His 2012 went through brake pads like water. He had to upgrade to 2014 brakes to fix it. Not cheap. (btw the brake upgrade in 2013 all they did was put brakes from the Grand Caravan on it, Journey had smaller brakes when it hit the market causing owners to go through pads left and right). Pentastar power is good though.

Here he is playing in the snow...

Hot Tamale is a winner, so is Blu Bayou.
Acapulco Gold isn't a bad pick considering the Hornet theme, but I don't know if I'd pick it over the red and Blu.
Blue Steele...I would've just picked some kind of orange, dark green, or maybe some darker red instead for the fourth color pick.
NPC grayscale colors are NPC grayscale colors.
(Okay, 8 Ball wouldn't be bad with some kind of decals, which GLH thankfully demonstrates, although I somehow don't hate Q Ball neither. Gray Cray? Seeing it at an auto show, I'm almost certain in 3 years I wouldn't even glance a second time at one.)

Generally just nice to see them actually try with the colors instead of it just being couple of grays, black, white, red, and maybe some blue or other red.
Oh, sorry, I meant white, black, 'Pearl' white, gray, and super special gray that I'll be turned to when the most interesting color is a bit much.

2008-2012 Caravans suffered from small brakes too, finally fixed in 2013ish

Pre-Bankruptcy/FIAT Journey was the worst rental vehicle(crapbox) I ever had.
When I had rented Journey in 2017 (only vehicles they had where caravan, Journey, Chevy Cruze), it was a night and day difference so much so that (to me) it became a fantastic value for the price+size+seating.

But hence why it doesn’t make sense on a financial P-O-V + business case+Margin-focused plan.

It was a cash cow bargin.... but the driving dynamics just couldn't be fixed. It was better but it could never be a great car.
