DetroitNews.com - Stellantis pulls back on EVs / Hybrids - no dealer can order a MY26 EV or PHEV

The right decision. I for one an’t never letting my car drive itself. This “one up on the competition” thinking on tech nonessential gimmicks is a huge waste of vital money. My lane adjustment feature in my Cherokee is a mild annoyance with little value other than letting me know I’m a pretty lousy driver. Ditto on that women living inside my dash telling me the speed limit every two minutes and to put my hands on the wheel. So what if I speed a little while driving with my feet. Seriously, all that research and development for that gimmick. Wastefull and silly.
Don’t get me wrong, the little reminders make some sense, but self driving, we can wait for that one, and very seriously for me, forever.
Smart decision as the track record on this risky feature is dismal at best and quite dangerous actually. Apply the money to improve build quality in things like reliable software for engine and transmission management and not invisible passengers.
As to EVs, we told you so. Utter nonsense, all of it.
 
More supposition from you.
You say that "no dealer can order" in the title - the DEFINITION of clickbait - and like the talking heads of Fox News, you're spouting opinion as if it's fact. It's your opinion - and apparently your hope - that EVs and Plug-in Hybrids will go the way of the dinosaur just because you don't like them. They offend you in some deep way, I guess.

To answer your question - no, I'm not gonna say "you were right" because you're - as usual - being an *ss about it. Like the unwanted uncle at the family gathering that thinks they're always right about everything even when proven wrong.

Cutting back with a shifting market, and realizing that they used the wrong brands for the EV introductions in the US isn't exactly something that people disagree on. Cutting back is not the same thing as discontinuing. It would be stupid to continue when the market is shifting and pikachu-shock-face everyone else is cutting back and going with standard hybrids. Supply and Demand is the number one rule in business. They would be stupid to ignore that there's less demand for an EV Charger at $70k than there is for a Hemi Dakota that may never even make it to the US. lol

Your ego is making you look like a jack*ss.

Is there a source that confirms this impacts PHEVs too as you originally said, or is that just speculation?
