    A Letter to the People: Saving Chrysler – A Call to Action

    I almost fell out of my chair reading this article and seeing the proposal--YES, YES, AND MORE YES!!! Bring on The New Chrysler/Dodge, LLC and back to the status that they belong. I hope this happens quickly and we get real products moving into the brands. I can hear Tim Kuniskis gloating...

    Dodge Charger BEVs DOA

    Pricing Leaked With these prices not undercutting Tesla and having competition from every other manufacturer, these things are going to rot on lots!! I don't know what they are thinking and with greedy dealers price gouging every chance they get, Dodge is screwed.

    Electric Or Bust! What Is Your Opinion?

    Yes withhold federal taxes from a state that generates a large portion of those taxes 🤔🤔, let's see how that would play out. Some people are confused that these "tourist" states are the places where a majority of federal funds come from and poor states are the ones that suck up most of the money.

    Charger Daytona delayed? Prototypes supposedly failing.

    Just bring out the ICE variants that people are actually going to buy and get this moving. All these BEVs are just going to sit on lots anyway.

    Only a K resurrection can save Chrysler brand

    I honestly think people took the 2.0T going in a Grand Cherokee out of context, since the STLA Large KM Cherokee is being released in the same MY. I couldn't find any actual information on the 1.6T version of KM that people kept talking about and the only thing I found on it mentioned the STLA...

    Jeep® CEO Confirms Cherokee Nameplate Return

    If this mild hybrid is anything like the Grecale (22 city/29 hwy), we know it'll be powerful and have decent fuel economy. It should be better considering the platform is supposed to be lighter. I'm also wondering what trims they'll keep since they are cutting costs.

    Jeep® CEO Confirms Cherokee Nameplate Return

    Inside the new engine coming to the USA for STLA Medium Stellantis said the new setup will be used on “all compact SUVs developed on the STLA Medium (or e-VMP) platform.” I was curious where everyone keeps getting the 1.6T is going into a vehicle that's on the STLA Large platform, when every...

    Jeep® CEO Confirms Cherokee Nameplate Return

    🤣😂🤣🤣 I wish them luck on the BEV, maybe someone will take pity and buy one seeing as it'll likely be priced like the Recon and Wagoneer S.

    Jeep® CEO Confirms Cherokee Nameplate Return

    We can only hope it looks this good. I'm just hoping they don't hold it back by trying to only offer some 1.6T buzzy engine instead of one of the larger options for the US market.

    Jeep® Looking At HEV Powertrains For Wagoneer S and Recon?

    You must live in a small town somewhere, because if you live in a major city, I've lived in 3 so far, there are large vehicles all over the place in these complexes. Just because people are renting a place doesn't mean they aren't buying large SUVs and trucks especially here in TX.

    Jeep® Looking At HEV Powertrains For Wagoneer S and Recon?

    Plug-in hybrids are not what the average person thinks of when you use the "hybrid" term, they'll immediately think of the original Prius or mild hybrid setups that are get in and go like additional gas variants. Plug-in hybrids haven't been around that long and still the inconvenience is there...

    Jeep® Looking At HEV Powertrains For Wagoneer S and Recon?

    This was not a surprise. I said from the moment they announced these EVs that they wouldn't be all electric, because of cost and nonprofitability. Having gas/hybrid variants of all their models is a better way to remain profitable while tinkering with BEVs. The STLA platforms having that...

    Report: Jeep Grand Cherokee To Gain New Powertrain For 2025

    I don't think they'll leave the 2.0T as the only engine choice for too long, considering why people buy GCs and this would be a deal breaker for anyone looking for the equivalent towing power of the current one. I suspect RAMs tweaked HO I6 may sneak over to Jeep (G Wagoneer), when they use...

    Report: Jeep Grand Cherokee To Gain New Powertrain For 2025

    Jeep® Looking At HEV Powertrains For Wagoneer S and Recon? Looking at this report, what we heard may have been for the Wagoneer S and Recon models as a secondary powertrain option. If the KM is getting a hybrid 1.6T, then it would make sense to have the 2.0T hybrid engine in a luxury model as...

    Report: Jeep Grand Cherokee To Gain New Powertrain For 2025

    Anyone buying a GC with the 4 banger isn't using it to actually tow anything. Stellantis is likely making it so there's an option at a lower price point for those who want a people mover and better fuel economy. With all the rebates on the hood of the '24 models at the moment, they probably...

    Report: Jeep Grand Cherokee To Gain New Powertrain For 2025

    This engine must be a full hybrid because it's going to struggle to move something as big as the Grand Cherokee. The 3.6L struggles to move the GC to 60 mph, so there must be giant fuel economy advantage. Considering the 3.6L is good to tow up to 6200 lbs, how would they compensate for that...

    Jeep® Wagoneer S Could Make Its Debut In July

    People have been saying that the KM would be HEV, I didn't think it would be BEV because of the Wagoneer S being it's supposed twin. I'm curious if the KM will get a 3L Hurricane (S.O. at the very least) variant since there isn't a version in the Grand Cherokee as of yet? Also curious how much...

    Jeep® Gives Us Some New Teaser Images Of The Wagoneer S

    I would assume it would considering we are supposed to get the KM by the end of year or early next year and we haven't seen concepts of its replacement. Since the design of the Wagoneer S could be tweeked easily for a gas/HEV model, it wouldn't surprise me if that were the case. With the...

    Jeep® Makes Some Management Changes For North America

    Looks like they are trying to hurry and push Wagoneer into Range Rover competitor really quick with the former Maserati boss taking over. I can imagine that Jeep will either do what Hyundai/Genesis did and create separate areas in the same dealerships until they can create their own network.

    Next-Gen Jeep® Grand Cherokee Due Out In 2028

    Jeep also needs to cut some trims from the lineup, so the pricing structure isn't all over the place. Grand Cherokee should consist of Limited, Trailhawk, Summit and Summit Reserve, which would allow the KM (new 1.6T and new Hurricane I4) model to step into the large C/D segment model with the...
