What I'm reading: They need a v8 because POWAHHHH .. except that the inline 6 makes more power than the N/A v8's currently. lol -- Nobody is talking about realistically shoving an inline-4 into something as big as a barge (the Charger).

That thread isn't from an insider though - just an enthusiast as far as I know. That said even here has confirmed 'at least 2028'. Current-Generation Dodge Durango Is Sticking Around? But -- the images are copy-pasted off of a Hornet. They don't look bad in place because the Durango already...

Opel Corsa > Neon. (sedan & coupe) I tried to use some of the 1gen shapes to create something modern, with the Fratzog while making it a relatively cheap nosejob, with a few cues but not anything majorly different. The rear is the more differentiated because of the coupe-job. I did try a more...

because test cars are 100% how things are going to be in production form.

That looks like an NSX mixed with a Panamera. Other than the word Chryslser -- nah. lol

I completely expect it to look like the newer squarer Jeeps. Closer to Recon, Compass and Cherokee. The AI really just took the existing Renegade and squared up the grille a little. lol Under the hood, it sounds like we're pulling from the info we have on Compass and tossing it in there as...

Maybe not the Eclipse; it's sibling, Stratus/Sebring maybe. I don't think the Stratus got bad-mouthed it just got replaced by Avenger. I still think the bottom rung should be something Neon-esque. The 1st generation. Fun to drive no matter what trim level you got; make manual the cheaper option...

That doesn't make them right. That just makes them incompetent if they ignore all the brands but Jeep. Especially in the US.

Nah - The Halo is probably still going to be the SRT Banshee. They just have to actually add the value to the equation and not just the price tag.

Yeah, that seems to be their goal at this point, doesn't it? Jeep isn't the main brand. It's just the one with the most global footprint, hence it gets all the new models instead of Chrysler & Dodge. While FCA was around,there were vehicles to sell. - Dart, 200 --- cut instead of fixed -...

Just means they're way behind the curve in actually producing anything that isn't a Jeep as far as we know.

I don't hate fwd - I have mostly fwd-based vehicles. lol I was just thinking it'd be a unique way to differentiate the brands. As much as I would love to leverage our european marques for rebrands here, I think there is a certain amount of folly in that strategy. First the whole importing thing...

Might. The point still stands. It can be done with an SUV, then it should be doable for a sedan.

which part isn't happening? - the price point? I dunno, if Chevy can make their Trax start at 20k, we should be able to pull off a *sedan* at that price point. They just need to stop over-sizing & make it fun to drive. A Compact or Midsize, something to undercut the Charger in scale but not...

What just changing up the pillars, and bringing the chrome all the way around the bottom of the sills does.. I did more variations of this in my Other Thread Before you say its structural and they can't - look at the Wagoneer S and tell me that it can't look the part if they do it right.
