Yes, 2027 Model Year.

2L is, once again, going to flop just as badly as it did in KL and JL. Pentastar only available in Laredo & Laredo X trims = sales disaster.

Embarrassing waste of money.

Name some C/D segment vehicles that make profit. Volume and profit are two very different things. Last time I checked, Nissan was losing money hand over fist. And good luck competing against Toyota for C/D segment buyers.

Yesterday was somewhat disappointing. No HD trucks to Warren, and they’re getting a Ram variant (largely for police / fleet sales) of the Grand Wagoneer in 2028, which is ages from now. GME-T4 trash that no one wants. Overpriced 1.6L MHEVs of the Compass and Cherokee that are both inferior to...

Not enough pricing / profit margin potential in that segment compered to E segment full size unibody crossovers. Margins / profits are smaller in C / D segment. Look no further than the Wagoneer S EV flop, which is D segment.

Not worth the trouble. STLA Large is going to need plug in EREV at some point, just get it ready by calendar 2029. STLA Frame EREV already exists in prototype form.

Yikes. Wouldn't wish a frustrating like that on anyone - sorry you had to go through it. The older I get, the more I appreciate simplicity.

You're talking about apples and oranges - EREV is enabled on STLA Frame. It's not enabled yet on STLA Large. Yes, I agree they should make an investment in STLA Large to make it EREV capable by 2028.

If EVs come back, I wouldn't be surprised if full EV is skipped, and EREV is the go to market option that is selected for STLA Frame and STLA Large.

It’s binary - they’re either selling EVs and PHEVs, or they’re not. They’re not.

Didn’t cover all of it, but thanks to the current administration, the emission fines are a thing of the past!

Wouldn’t be surprised if that will end shortly
