Time to congratulate American labor in its efforts to have the disrespectful and shortsighted Tavares’ game of bait and switch overturned. Beyond the wisdom and value of collective bargaining is the business decision on Belvedere that makes too much sense not recognize. Stellantis will get this figured out and the American auto industry and consumers will be the better for it.
The bargaining table is restored as the setting for fairness and good business outcomes. Good news on all fronts.

I wonder if they can do a STLA Medium version of the Rampage at Brampton with the Compass?

I wonder if they can do a STLA Medium version of the Rampage at Brampton with the Compass?

I predict they will. There will be at least two products built off the “medium” in the U.S. including the current Rampage replacement. Much of the development will be done collaboratively, likely centered in Brazil, for global replication in other manufacturing sites including the U.S. The product is ripe for development and globalization that monetizes development costs over multiple markets must be its ultimate goal. Good point. We will see if it happens.
