Stellantis warns that a poorly fitted part in some Jeep Cherokees could cause the vehicles to lose power, increasing the risk of crash.
Stellantis had yet another horrible year in 2024, reporting a slip in US sales of 15%. This represented the sixth straight year of sales declines which is not a great picture for the carmaker. However,
While this is by no means conclusive for Chrysler's long-term EV plans, it does not look promising because nothing concrete about its future seems to be in sight. Here are four reasons why Chrysler’s EV plan would never work if they did end up deciding to pursue it.
Jeep began its electrification journey with its 4xe plug-in hybrid models and took the leap into the world of EVs with the 2025 Jeep Wagoneer S. This two-row Jeep SUV is expected to be capable of driving 300 miles on a full charge. Using 400-volt architecture, charging from 20 to 80 percent should take 23 minutes using a Level 3 DC fast charger.
Stellantis is making big changes to turn its U.S. business around after a tough 2024 and the departure of CEO Carlos Tavares.
After downturn, new boss and Jeep faithful Bob Broderdorf is ready to fill out the lineup and start moving vehicles again.
The Avenger that Stellantis produces in Poland for Europe and the UK is eyed for the US or Canada, but chances are the Avenger will not make it to North America
Last major vehicle to launch in 2025 is the Jeep Recon, a fully electric off-road-oriented vehicle that is one step below a Wrangler in capability, riding on STLA Large as opposed to STLA Frame for the eventual electric Wrangler. We await further details about the Recon which is a Broderdorf favorite and he thinks people will love it.
The Avenger was the first pure electric Jeep. It was followed by the Jeep Wagoneer S midsize electric SUV that is headed to U.S. showrooms now and becomes the first electric Jeep in the U.S. It will be followed later this year by the midsize Jeep Recon EV which is more off-road oriented.
Dodge, and by extension, Chrysler get most of their business from people with bad credit. There are way more v6 chargers on the road than v8 models. The base price of a charger has now gone from 35k to 60k. Moving up-market is ultimately going to kill Stellantis.
Dodge and Jeep executives spoke about their first electric offerings, the Charger Daytona and Wagoneer S, at the Detroit Auto Show.
