...we crown a new #1 who isn't exclusively BEV but is nonetheless a juggernaut in the space with constant new model releases. One big problem with that though.

The 600 was just kinda revealed and that was it. Another small electric crossover for Europe. The Junior was dealt with what the new Ypsilon was/is dealing with: Is it true to the rather premium and fancier heritage dripping brand or is it just a spiced up Peugeot in a tuxedo? The styling...

Am anxiously waiting to see their future product, especially seeing that this is what they basically are for right now: a badge on a minivan only. I wonder how they'll respond to the BEV hangover and with what powertrain strategy.

Ionna (the 7 automaker network Stellantis is apart of) could use the workers.. Super unfortunate to see Elon further fold like this. For all his wrongs, he was actually an innovator at times, especially with good EV charging. Dude is so clearly bored of owning Tesla at this point and instead of...

Sandero comparison is an odd one. That's a dirt cheap econobox vs an all electric, slightly premium crossover. I'm guessing the hybrid isn't out the oven yet, definitely would be higher sales then. France will probably remain it's best market. I believe in March they killed off incentives for...

In the face of consumers fighting back until conditions are better, which could take a fat long while, and Elons continuous mistakes putting EV adoption into question, the chances of the Daytona having much meaningful impact has certainly slimed. It potentially explains certain odd things about...

The other day I found this interview with the head honcho at Alfa Romeo, and in it he talks about a hypothetical Tonale Quadrifoglio (which probably could've lended itself to a sorta Hornet Scat Pack, at least imo) and why it's not happening. The GLH was also brought up, which makes me wonder...

First post back after actually giving a damn to log back in has to be with these cars. The model is designed amazingly. Powertrains are a heck of a gamble, but seems obvious they'll see some success with the Sixpack cars, so long as they don't price them to the moon. Daytona EVs showed up...

https://electrek.co/2023/07/26/auto-giants-unite-build-universal-network-clean-energy-fast-charger-north-america/ • NACS and CCS included in stalls • 100% powered by renewable energy (we'll see) • First chargers deployed next summer, including in NEVI spots

https://electrek.co/2023/06/13/stellantis-not-ready-adopt-tesla-nacs-connecto/ Thoughts? This likely squanders Ram REV hitting good sales compared to its rivals, and the Dodge may not even get a fair chance to shake the market up if it's connected to multiple below average charging networks...

If Fiat becomes apart of more CDJR showrooms then yes, might work the second time around for the 500X/600. Too bad the front end is sorta crap. Curious about Alfa Romeo 'Kid' (Breenero) more now since they're actually giving these distinct designs and not pulling a Tonale/Hornet

*Weirds everyone in America out with our French-ness*

Wasn't this because of production issues? But the near 1,000 sold all in all still looks upsetting. I bet the Bolt (both of them) sales will skyrocket though. Doubt it. Barely any automaker in the US wants to a do a B segment or lower battery electric for us and it's just disappointing. We...

Whatever becomes of it might be revealed in 2024 but it won't come to market until 2025 so for sure not counted. Just the 500e for probably the next few years, and that's if they change their US plans by then. For a refresher, instead of competing in the mainstream or lower, they're kinda...

This seems about correct. They relayed this information last sales report but it wasn't really touched on anywhere. There's just gonna be a Charger for now, don't expect the next thing from Dodge to be revealed until maybe a year after that.

He's still a board member. He just now has a position where work is less overbearing and can potentially keep tabs on projects like future performance cars. Not retired at all. There was a presentation last month where they made it clear they're still using the menu approach for different future...

The bZ4x wouldn't be hard to beat in general. For the range and charge times it allows, the car honestly is better off with at least a upper 30's price range. No, it's not MX-30 levels of bad (that car needs to be at Bolt prices or less for what it gives), but for not too much less than what the...

Gave it another whirl with a separate DS model for a hot hatch. Because hot hatch was a keyword, I suppose the A.I. figured I wanted performance colors instead of the gold that the DS had, ended up with a lot of dark red cars.

Messing around more with A.I. A stupid what if AU where Dodge rebadged a DS 3 for the NA market. Also, apologies for the horrendous editing of these mock-ups into two collages. Each one in the second pile up had more influence from the DS image used up.
