Stellantis Extends CO2 Credit Deal with Tesla Into 2025

Stellantis Extends CO2 Credit Deal with Tesla Into 2025​

Automaker Continues Compliance Strategy Amid EU Emissions Regulations​

Stellantis has confirmed that it will continue purchasing CO2 credits from Tesla in 2025 to meet European Union (EU) emissions regulations, Reuters reports. The EU initially required automakers to comply with stricter emissions standards by 2025 but has since extended the compliance window to 2027. Despite this extension, Stellantis’ Chief Operating Officer, Enlarged Europe, Jean-Philippe Imparato, stated that the company will “use everything” to ensure it stays within legal limits.

 
Durango had no redesign since 2011. They're heavy and the SRT versions are full-time AWD which are simpler but mpg is low.

N.A. Hemi's - no new tech since 2009 and cam/lifter failures aren't fixed.

Ford & Chevy have released multiple V8s with aluminum blocks, overhead cams, direct injection, etc - FCA/Stellantis did nothing for 16 years but Tim K. did pack a bunch of weight onto the FatCats. Almost 4,700 lbs for the Charger and it's not AWD.

When you lack competency and no one cares, this is what happens.
 
Durango's domestic competitor's are the Chevy Traverse and Ford Explorer. If Chevy wanted to they could offer a "frunk" with all the underwood space on the latest Traverse. Both the Ford and Chevy products are now four cylinder turbo equipped. I think the Ford might still offer an optional V6. A four cylinder without electrification is not smart.

Reread the article, the Tesla credit purchase is for the EU market. The Durango isn't offered there.
