Because No One actually believes that Chrysler can compete with BMW and Mercedes? When has it ever? I quite a buff on history... the space the company occupied most of its existence, has been a premium appointment of existing platforms of its other brands. The rare exception started life as...

Yeah bet they don't care, crashing the system into public transport is the ultimate goal. But yes the Sub-B $15K is the best adoption plan. Make a basic 2 and 3 row car and flood the market... Where you can get a new vehicle for the cost of Used high mileage.

California is not giving up and the Case Law through Supreme Court supports them. Not taking California side, just stating where it at.

CS SUV should have never been cancelled. It was done, and ready to go... And the volume would have transitioned naturally.

Yeah the JEEP minivan is going nowhere .... it is one of the best selling models. Not to say Chrysler shouldn't have a 3 row E-segment vehicle. The whole Aspen experiment keeps getting brought up in ROI meetings. Chrysler can be distinct lower, elegant, swoopy, plush. But volume on the L has...

I’d like it to be the Maserati of USA on Budget. Elegant and Classic . Feminine is a good description. Smooth, Soft, rich organic interiors

Wow……K sorry for trying . Wallow it in. Not explaining my point of view trying to be right. Trying to explain how it works from someone who was deeply involved in it. There is hardly a part in Western Auto manufacturing that hasn’t touched through my fingers, not hyperbolic. For that effort I...

You seemed to confusing development cost with production costs. Since everyone is doing it, it’s no advantage. Per unit cost has everything to do where the capacity and components are sourced. Therefore dictating margins, content, and competitiveness. Either i am not explaining it well or it...

Korean parts in a box are cheaper than European parts in a box, Chinese parts in a Box are more cheaper than EU and Korean parts in a box. USA parts in a Ropak are more expensive than Korean and Chinese parts taken from their box and put into Ropaks and places line side. Legacy manufacturing...

Think still missing the point... Yes Chrysler could be more expensive than Dodge in the old model. I have my doubts now about that Dodge is Niche performance, Jeep is Niche SUV rugged.... Chryslers Niche isssss??????? Chrome and leather? That isn't a niche now. People don't pay more for...

doesn't it add drag?

YA CANT do this here...... They cannot be a Genesis because they don't have component or manufacturing cost structure to compete.

Since, they don't have a intact supply base in Asia or some other low cost region to import nearly the entire vehicle prior to assembly, KIA value car will not earn a ROI to make past the Implementation stage. There is this odd dichotomy within the fantasy Chrysler fanbase that want very much...

French Based Leadership likely did the divide to sale BS, and now that is off.

Several models made it too the last gate, and couldn't get the ROI sorted to be implemented... When you listen to people talk about Cadillac as Kia price... you can see why.

Should.... why weren't they? brand continuity ... Lower in the market, Sporty fun, bit brash, Luscious .... to Top of the market Grand Touring Vehicles highly refined and elegant.

the amount of felt tape that gets added along the way across OEMs is surprising.

Everything at this point should be Hybrid.... EVERYTHING. With EV option. No more Torque Converters. STLA is woefully behind. These are not new systems anymore, market has spoken. Have a Parasitic launch system is just not competitive in todays marketplace. I hope all these delays are...

Cherokee will have the 1.6 with a 3 speed hybrid transmission

Going to Turkey, Germany, France, and UK quite often I would say your impression is biased by the Nationalism of the Italy. In UK I see more new MGs than nearly any other cars. By my estimation the bottom of the market is dominated by Asian vehicles. 4. Kia, 7.Toyota, 8. Nissan, 9.Hyundia...
