    Dodge Reportedly Planning New Crossover Between Hornet and Durango

    Some comments on the above ^^^ video follows. Cheapening up the Hornet can be done by using a GME-T4 built in this country combined with a transmission also built here. As was suggested, offer it as a front driver. FCA made the same mistake with the Fiat 500X. Europe got a sportier front drive...

    Dodge Reportedly Planning New Crossover Between Hornet and Durango

    The Chrysler brand gets jack. There has been a steady cadence of new product introductions in Europe and Latin America for Opel and the legacy PSA brands. On another thread we read in Latin America that the Jeep Commander is getting a refresh, while its platform mate the Ram Rampage gets...

    Did the All-New Jeep® Compass Just Leak Online?

    I always liked the styling of the Jeep Avenger, especially with the 4Xe package chassis enhancements and wheels. The stylists have done an excellent job of using some of those elements on a larger vehicle. They could of ruined it by simply puffing up the Avenger's styling to this size, but this...

    SPOTTED: 2026 Dodge Charger SIXPACK H/O Two-Door

    This new charger reminds of the 1969-70 Polara more than any past Charger. Where's the Superlite?

    Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack Joins One Lap of America

    So what are they using to tender the Charger? A Ram proMaster with a Cummins powered generator in the back would be cool. On the other hand, they could use one of the recently refreshed HD Ram trucks painted in matching colors. That would be cool, the Ram and the generator both would have...

    Dodge Omni O24: Retro Comeback We Didn’t Know We Needed

    The Citroen C3 Aircross has a 105" wheelbase and is 173" overall. It is based on the Smart platform. The Citroen C5 Aircross has a 107.5" wheelbase and is 177" overall, based on the medium platform. I'm just pointing out dimensions for the possibility for using one platform over another. I...

    Ram Secures U.S. Patent for Rampage Compact Pickup

    The Maverick is defining the market. Ford didn't create this market segment, it just uncovered it and is now reaping the benefits. Unless Stellantis builds a product that taps into this market segment and resonates with the buyers, it will most likely flop. The newest vehicles built on the...

    Dodge team member: Sixpack coupe on track for 2025 launch, Sixpack sedan delayed to '26?

    The PHEV vehicles do well in the cold, that's a selling point. The driver does not need to wear a snowmobile suit in cold weather. I froze shuffling the BEVs up to charging stations this past winter. I even was getting brick warnings on the instrument panel as well on a few of them. The...

    Ram Secures U.S. Patent for Rampage Compact Pickup

    The average transaction price of the Ford Maverick currently stands at $33,000. If Ram can't match that they shouldn't even bother. The pieces are there, however, to make a decent product, the 2.0 GME-T is a proven unit, as is the hybrid transmission found in the Pacifica, and there is the...

    Tribute To The Compact Pickup: Jeep® Comanche Concept

    The Slate EV truck does bring to mind both this Jeep Comanche Concept as well as the Dodge M-80. The Slate also seems to have borrowed other FCA features. From an op/ed found on The Fast Lane Truck (tfltruck-dot-com) : I should also add that the op/ed was in response to a spy photo and posted...

    Perhaps the issue is where the engine is made.

    Ram Secures U.S. Patent for Rampage Compact Pickup

    I have to wonder what is wrong with the leadership of the legacy Chrysler Corp brands, that they have totally abandoned the entry level and affordable segments. I might also add Fiat's USA marketing team to this. Stellantis is selling affordable vehicles for the European market with products...

    Stellantis Eyes Leapmotor To Bring Affordable EVs To India

    Stellantis thinks so. It doesn't matter what I think. BTW, I follow the Hindustan Times channel on YouTube because I no longer trust MSM in this country. So I'm somewhat informed about that part of the world.

    Stellantis Eyes Leapmotor To Bring Affordable EVs To India

    See my comments here, Tribute To The Compact Pickup: Jeep® Comanche Concept and Post#7 here, Large Electric Pickup Trucks Are a Scam The Slate project has gone viral, but the other EV story which remains relatively quiet is Walmart is getting involved with the the EV charging business. Which...
