    Meet The Range Extending 2025 Ram 1500 Ramcharger Pickup

    Good question @TripleT if the Pacifica is the genesis of this model. I'm surprised if it is All Electric drivetrain, why it needed a v6 for charging. I guess if you want to accomplish 14k towing you need something to produce some serious kW. Does that leave open the opportunity for a 4 or 3...

    What is the sentiment on the Leapmotor arrangement and how does it change the strategy/plan

    With Stellantis doing a Joint Venture with Leapmotor how does that change the strategy for EVs in N.A.? Will this be a pipeline for Chrysler or Dodge? Will it leverage Leap for manufacturing of a Chrysler or other brand vehicle akin to what Build and Chevy are doing (in Korea) ? -OR- Is this...

    LEAKED: Two-Door Dodge Charger Daytona Body-In-White

    The tunnel, can that double as a battery compartment as well meaning architects are mindful of being more agile to demand, politics, and buyer sentiment ?

    The new STLA Medium platform in detail

    The subscription concept is a fad (hopefully) that is something that 1/2 the people hate and 1/2 the people love. If you can appease the haters by making the subscription for "updates" or "new" unreleased features that is something the 1/2 haters can pallet as they can have their o.g. features...

    END OF TOUR: Dodge Charger Pursuit Gets Ready To Go "10-42"

    Does someone have a link to the % that use Chargers versus SUVs or other body styles? I still see them at the state and local level in abundance.

    UAW VP Says Stellantis Has Threaten To Move Ram 1500 Production To Mexico

    I'm been lead to believe if you say anything with enough confidence and enough times, many people will believe it to be true. Sadly, that is all you need.

    SPOTTED: Ram Rampage Big Horn 4x4 Compact Pickup In Michigan

    I guess I'll never shake the size of the rampage in my head, when I look at this how much smaller than the 1500 is this? Pretty soon the B52s will start singing about their Chrysler that is as big as a whale again, and then we'll get the 80s all over again. Kidding aside - anyone have a...

    Stellantis and other auto companies, including GM and Mercedes, to battle Tesla with new charging JV for NA

    Yep, could you imagine the adapter portfolio you would have if 120v outlet adapters were never standardized.

    Ralph Gilles Sets the Record Straight on the Airflow Concept's Future

    I am reading some conflation of Chrysler (co) with Chrysler (brand) in some of the comments above. I agree with @Mike201 that @vbondjr1 response was well thought out - thank you. And @bill burke you are totally correct, there is some great perspective shared in this thread. One thing we...

    Ralph Gilles Sets the Record Straight on the Airflow Concept's Future

    What is the makeup of a loyal Chrysler customer? A minivan owner? someone who has been an owner for decades? I'm curious if there is a base that is large enough to justify keeping them at this point. I do not feel that Chrysler at this point faces the same situation as Olds did. When...

    Ralph Gilles Sets the Record Straight on the Airflow Concept's Future

    Whether it was their intention all along to evolve, or they pivoted, in the end is may be in everyone's favor. They got feedback and were able to tune things w/o delivering the product to market. They set the expectations that Chrysler's portfolio was going to be lean while they regroup and...

    Stellantis and other auto companies, including GM and Mercedes, to battle Tesla with new charging JV for NA

    This is a good thing. I see this as competition w/o competing standards. This will incentivize innovation and could keep end user costs in check. The article above talks about Kia and Hyundai as two separate entities but calls Stellantis and BMW as one; odd. The momentum does create a small...

    Stellantis says no to NACS for now.

    I'm not sure I follow some of the statements above. Tesla's 2022 Year End statements say Profit : 3.7 billion in net profit Profit from Credits : $1.8 billion source : Tesla made an annual profit of $12.6 billion in 2022

    Meet The All-New, All-Electric Fiat 600e Subcompact

    I agree the vehicle has a good position, I'm not sure I'm aligned on the styling fitting in N.A. Interior and exterior just does not seem to land with N.A. tastes and FIAT is not strong enough to adjust those tastes (like the PT Cruiser did) . If you slapped a Chrysler clip and style cues on...

    Ralph Gilles Confirms The Chrysler Airflow Will NOT Make It Into Production!

    Different question - do you want the interior to be similar to the Airflow concept, or something more along the lines of their other concept demos ? I enjoy the 200/pacifica interior and ergonomics having everything at your easy reach and a pass through compartment. I realize the Dial is...

    We Could See The New Electric Fiat 600e On July 4th!

    Parking garages have EV spots sometimes with donated for free juice (they are often premium spots as well).

    Ralph Gilles Confirms The Chrysler Airflow Will NOT Make It Into Production!

    This seems like it was in the plans for a long time, and not a shift for the brand, just a shift in outward marketing. The statement that the real CUV was shown to a limited group already suggests this was not something recently decided. The question; is what was shown intended to be in...

    We Could See The New Electric Fiat 600e On July 4th!

    This is basically a replacement for the 500x (is it supposed to pronounced cross?) correct? This seems like a PT Cruiser sized vehicle but the exterior and interior are not to N.A. tastes. Would this footprint with an updated clip and more Chrysler future interior sell 50k units a year in...

    Chrysler Teased Dealers Last Month With A 300 Successor

    To be a product owner right now in the Automotive space takes guts. You can try to be bland and appeal to everyone (super hard in a competitive space). You can try to be bold and make a hit (PT Cruiser) or miss the mark completely (Pontiac Aztek). You can be conservative and stick with ICE...

    Did I see a minivan w/ an Airflow front near the Chelsea Proving Ground?

    It was a taller profile than what I thought I would see in the Airflow, but I suppose it is possible. Since I saw the rear view via my rear view (mirror) I may have mistaken the profile for a flat back versus the slated of the Airflow. It was fast enough that I did not get a good look at the...
