Since the Hemi is dead and UAW is striking, I'll keep buying Mazda and Mercedes. I hope the big 3 file for bankruptcy and are built back as non union companies.
Offer this vehicle as a PHEV and a 2.0 turbo model, then I'm interested. A pitiful amount of development has gone into NA engines in the past 15 year. A lot of us will not buy a BEV and promote slave labor in Africa and line the pockets of the Demoncrats. Chrysler is practically Dead to me.
IIHS, another organization that has to make itself relevant. At some point, we have to stop raising the crash bar or vehicles will increase in size and weight to absurd levels. Minor improvements yes. Making current offered features reliable is a much bigger concern. The number of electrical &...
They're more concerned with their ESG score and International markets than a modern Hemi for the US. They should have developed a smaller Hemi to equal the weight of the turbo I6 but with 12:1 comp and Direct Injection performance to equal the 5.7 but a couple of mpg better & better driving...
Grand Cherokee L 4xe? Lack of modern engines & PHEVs was embarrassing last year and no real changes for this year. Pathetic.
Not many people are posting because there's nothing of note to read. I only glance a few times a month now. CDJR are all tied up in DEI & Gay Pride parties, the...
Get your head out of the Corp Rear End Dude. Ford's Coyote base model will make 500Hp and Chevy's 5.5 makes 670HP. They've had aluminum blocks since the 90s. Hellcats are FatCats adding hundreds of pounds to already overweight models. Such low engineering expectations from so many Corp...
Zero development on NA Hemis in 15 years. Comparing the Hurricane with what should have been developed 426 aluminum block DI Hemi making over 550 HP while being a few % more efficient than the 6.4 and about the same weight as the Hurricane. Throttle response, performance, and most important...
Because of BEVs which Trump will kill off so once again Chrysler is not prepared for what the customer wants. Simple, modern updates to the Hemi to keep the V8 alive which everyone but CDJR is doing.
No V8 with an aluminum block or direct injection. All new Grand Cherokee platforms in 2021 & 2022 but a 2009 550 lb 5.7 Hemi or a 2011 3.6 V6 (updated in 2016).
No updates to the base Hemi in 15 years and 13 for the 392. Kia's developed a lot of sedans and Chrysler is dead. It's pathetic. No vision or execution.
So the top engine for the 2024 Grand Cherokee L is 5.7 Hemi from 2009? No 4xe for the L? This is why I own a GL 450 and I really wanted a Mopar but there is such a lack of development.
"To the delight of HEMI® enthusiasts, it’s worth noting that the 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 will not be available for the 2024 model year"...Typo?
That would be very true if a new HEMI (all aluminum, NA, DI) was being released but Mopar gave up a long time ago on a light weight, fuel efficient HEMI V8...
The same UAW that demanded the jobs back for Chrysler workers smoking pot and drinking liquor on the job. UAW, Clean house and change your ways if you want your words to mean anything to us.
I said nothing about the truck market and they're dropping the 5.7 so you have no point. Those 5.7s are still wiping out cam lobes (mine is a 2014 300C). A light weight Hemi that has a 2 mpg improvement would keep it around now we have nothing. Wake up and quit living in 2009.
FCA failed when GM & Ford both developed great push rod engines the past decade. There is no modern push rod V8 still 2009 Tech. They should have developed a small Hemi ~5.2L, 125 lbs lighter than the 5.7 and much more fuel efficient while keeping a pushrod V8. 360 hp & 368 lb.ft Tq allows it...
