Chrysler was already in talks to sell a minority stake to Fiat in order to survive the financial crisis of 2008. The Obama Administration stepped in and made it worse, in my opinion. That allowed for the complete Fiat takeover of Chrysler in 2011. Would Chrysler have survived without Fiat...
We saw exactly how the new all electric models did when they arrived on dealer lots. Not very many people wanted them. it was a total disaster for CDJR here in North America. When people think of Dodge, Ram, Jeep, etc... they expect fire breathing beasts with lots of horsepower. We are now about...
I'm sorry that you are disappointed that Americans aren't buying more BEV cars and trucks. Dodge introduced the electric Charger almost 2 years ago and no one bought it. Ram has the REV coming out sometime next year and that may do better. But most Americans want their V8's, at least for now. It...
Introducing Leapmotor to the US is a bad idea in my opinion.
And Stellantis is just going to have to find ways to design and build cars more efficiently in order to compete in the future. Bringing back V8's and ICE, in general, will help save the company in the short term, but new propulsion...
Maybe this is a way of developing new products and working out the bugs before introducing a locally sourced similar vehicle here in NA. I'd rather product development begin here and filter out to other markets from NA. Here in NA is where the rubber meets the road. This is where the most $$$...
Unfortunately, I don't think we can expect too much. Filosa hasn't been in charge for long and Stellantis doesn't have the budget that they had in previous years. Even when they had budgets for new cars most of that money went to the European and South American markets. I expect the car reveal...
Ouch! I expected this, though. Just make good quality product that people want and things will turn around. I believe things are headed in the right direction but.... I have to take a wait and see approach to anything this company promises.
There is something about that rear quarter styling that is not quite right. But the interior room is maximized. I'm hoping the upcoming refresh tweaks that area a bit. Maybe adorn it with lights like Cadillac did.
And I like that the Grand Wagoneer trim levels can be had on the Wagoneer. Not...
Not to get political, but it's a shame that the EU is playing hard ball on tarriff talks with the Trump Admin. I have no doubt that Meloni would have struck a deal long ago that is beneficial to both Italy and the US. I liked this car and understand why it made sense to build it in Italy...
Body on frame seems right to me for a mid size truck. It is a little more costly but it affords a lot more capability for things that trucks need to do. Hopefully, they add the Rampage to the North American market which is a unibody, smaller truck. Then everyone can be happy. I'd love to see the...
