If Mopar can only make old uncompetitive powertrains to make their incumbent customers happy. They might as well pack it in. Since they never solved all the issue on any of the V engine. Legit.
Shut it down. Cuz slow, thirsty, dirty, heavy, fragile, and expensive is not sustainable.
Just a eggcrate and Wing logo on with Chrysler shaped lighting. Of all the PSA cars this one would work the best in the NA market. Although the quirky interior would have to get full rework.
This isn't on Stellantis in the slightest, this a product the regulators don't like and trust me they hate it, being regulated out of the Market.
and for sure the "THEY", and I don't think we are talking about the same "THEY" would do the same thing here and we were extremely close, scare close...
Nothing special about Leap other than they spent time getting the programming correct. Not this Euro-centric idea that the only thing good comes from that narrow strip of land between the North Sea and the Mediterranean. That may be reductive but it is good summary.
Nothing wrong with the Charger other than it doesn't look the same as a decades old model and doesn't have a volume engine option. Doesn't need a name change. Maybe Daytona is the EV distinction without Charger.
The bottom of the market EV are maybe a year oe 2 out. Mopar with be there holding it bitches while another big share of the market leaves them behind.
At least we can come here and read how if the just put a 20 year old under powered inefficient engine in it that will same the company.
Oh so you prefer engines that are proven unreliable opposed unproven. I hate this poop(radio edit) because I am Mopar fan and fan of both powerplants at a time. But it Pollyannish at this point they were great power dense powerplants at time but never "reliable". V engine make up nearly every...
I wouldn't say Jeep is failing with PHEVs Wrangle and JGC are both the best selling PHEV. The Samsung Battery has been a problem across all OEMs, and they struggle with integration.
I wouldn't call those models rushed they were both 18months behind. I would say miss focused but remember they...
I am a old guy just 3 years away from you, and I am not sure I want another vehicle that isn't PHEV as a daily driver. The ability of nearly never buy gas except when on a trip is unbelievable convenience
Blessing?
779,287 vehicles were sold by Stellantis North America in 2024, excluding Ram 1500 and Jeep Wrangler sales.
Tesla sold approximately 800,000–805,000 vehicles in North America in 2024. 5% of the total market out of nowhere
Total EV sale 1,800,000 vs 1,300,000 total sales STLA sales...
The total performance market in America is less than 400K. 400K!!! not the V8 performance market... The Entire including all powertrain options of which V8 is smaller subsection. To Keep that in Context the "electrification nonsense" Model Y Tesla sold 480K alone sold in North America.
So...
besides it being a heavy, inefficient dinosaur at this point and uncompetitive in the market place with other rivals where power, efficiency, and range matter?
So much of Mopar's glorious past has become a boat anchor.
How about Jeep. Chrysler, Dodge, Ram, Fiat, Alfa, and Maserati ... split from the other brands Focus on Italy, NA, and SA ..... Maybe call it FCA and have it run by Car people instead penny pinching accountants.
