HEV model should have been available at Jump.

With the change in leadership there should emerge three basic iron clad commitments for recovery. First, vast improvement in build quality to restore public confidence. Second, redirect finances to build pending product, especially gas powered vehicles, as soon as possible. Third, offer engine options in every brand to include ICE, hybrid and electrification when and only when fully perfected. These must be fundamental from tomorrow forward.
Poor Fiat 500, it is baring the brunt of a consumer market rejecting all electric without options in many beloved brands and models. Get these three fundamentals right and things may get better, even for the legendary Fiat 500.

But that has ended, they could have started with EV, and transitioned to higher volume as the old model wound down.

Yeah, but when have we seen Stellantis do that? Never. Always late to the party.

I think late to the party is going to work out on the EV thing.... billions will be saved.

It seemed all the models had at least HEV contingency shelf ready except one their bestselling EU models? It seems the other best seller the Panda already has one.
