Okay so how much less does it weigh? Cool news and all but lets see what this stuff is really going to do for the car with some head to head testing. This car would have been so much better had Stellantis not rushed it. The car had potential and now everything is about damage control. Carlos really messed Mopar up big time. I'm still in full support of the Mopar brands trying to get their feet back under them and move forward from the Tavares era. My thing is keep pushing forward and making break throughs. I know everyone isn't an EV fan and the brand needs to continue diversifying their lineups with multiple powertrains, just make sure the investments are going to yield profitable returns.

Just because I may not want the inconvenience and added anxiety of an all electric car does not mean there is not a viable place for them in the marketplace and any improvement to these electrics is a good thing. I’m even rethinking my absolute rejection to hybrids as long as they are not plug in versions. My wife and I have been waiting for the next generation Cherokee and a video from the Mopar Junkie about this new Jeep being a pure hybrid has got me softening my stand on the issue. Jeep it seems has addressed every wish I had for an updated Cherokee, that interior looks great and if the top of the line Limited offers us top shelf interior amenities (we need out comforts you know) then it deserves a test drive. Eleven years in two exact Cherokees begs for something new and the “little lady” loves her Cherokees, so we need an open mind on a new SUV. I guess even old dudes like me need some updating too. I’ll give it a fair look and hopefully others will too.

Five years ago we said "it'll be a LONG time before anything EV goes mainstream and outnumbers ICE vehicles, if we even see it in our lifetimes." Looks like that was an accurate statement.

It was their "Happy Earth Day" message. A lot of this stuff is vaporware. When it hits the showroom call me.
