The Stellantis Cassino Assembly Plant in Italy is facing yet another setback as production halts extend into 2025. Initially slated to resume operations on January 15th, inside sources now suggest the plant may remain idle until at least January 27th, possibly even February 3rd.

 
This is the direct result of global political radicalization on climate and gross mismanagement by politicians and corporate executives caught up in this massive hoax. Here presented is a stark reality of ignoring the will of the people because you are just so much smarter than they are. Carlos and his enablers were simply elitist, arrogant, egotists who navigated there way to power and made a mess.
Now some folks, suffering the financial consequences of these idiots are finally facing reality. That’s point one on this situation.
Point two is the product. I shopped the Stelvio six years ago and was impressed by many of its characteristics, but its information platform at launch was already outdated and inferior to the one I had in my three year old Jeep Cherokee. I was not impressed by the turbo four, as the seat of my paints feel felt it about equal to my Jeeps six and less smooth or quiet. I bought another Cherokee and never regretted.
These two very tight and balanced vehicles have become so long in tooth they just can’t cut it with their competition with less impressive interiors, outdated tech and the same package for years and years. In essence workers suffer as management sought to squeeze every euro they could without spending on a serious update. It also reflects the redirection of scarce resources need to improve traditional product into the rabbit hole of electrification. Billions wasted on something hair brain that few wanted. They clearly still don’t.
It’s a mess, the progressive mindset is at fault and the road back is long and difficult as a result. Hopefully the massive right ward swing globally will usher in a new world order of clear thinking, common sense and following the axioms of the free market explained so many years ago by Adam Smith in his “ Wealth of Nations” .
Read it and prosper.

The only thing that is going to save Maserati and Alfa Romeo is to merge Alfa Romeo with Dodge and rename it Alfa-DodgeBros, and rename the Chrysler brand ChryslerMaserati. Anchoring the brands together and selling them worldwide with competitive prices are the ONLY thing that is going to save Italian manufacturing.
