We have projects scheduled out way past 28 with gas engines as far as I've seen.

AND NO the UAW contract will not make them go broke! Being woke and following this green bullshit might but not paying the workers better. The over inflated car prices can more than make up for any wages without any further increases! The average cost of a new car is up over $10,000 in the last three years and that is not because of wages, a chip shortage or supply chain issues, it's just because they could! Now they'll try to blame us and none of it is our fault!

Off roading in a Wrangler EV is a great idea? So what if you get only 75mi on a full charge! Just take along 2 5gal cans of electrons to refuel!

Would make for a great rock crawler, but the trail better be really close to the parking lot with your trailer...

And back to gas by 2026.

 

[Speedy!]

There are many applications, and I'd argue advantages, to a hybrid setup. Why oh why are they trying to go full EV when there's a much simpler and more accepted solution.

 

[ButterDaGreat?]

Now there will be 2 wrangler like full EV's. The Wrangler and the Jeep Recon EV Ralph Gilles said was based on the Wrangler. Smart plan 🤣

Off roaders here in Colorado are just laughing. Bye-bye Jeep if that happens.

Stellantis is doing everything but paying us to switch over from our favorite brands to Ford or GM. I swear if Stellantis bought out a steak house like Texas Roadhouse the first thing they would do is ditch real steaks and push to sell nothing but veggies and vegan crap.

You mean the first thing they'd do is switch to electric grills with fake sizzle sounds!

Stellantis knows that the vast majority of Wrangler owners have never been off asphalt or ever want to be. Most have never seen snow. The problem is, Stellantis marketing does not realize the reason these urbanites buy a Wrangler! It is the lure of what some Wranglers “can do”. Much like people buying a 6cyl Mustang, Camaro or Challenger. People like to drive vehicles that are very similar to the extreme performers and live in that image at bargain prices. Side note: I loved the Lincoln LS, but they didn’t offer it with a Mustang GT engine and manual trans. That would have completely changed the image and sold a lot more of them!

Stellantis thinks that since urban buyers like the adventure image of the Wrangler, and they like EV’s also, then they will doubly like EV Wranglers. That will work, for maybe 2 years, until the urbanites realize it is no longer a real off road vehicle, then no one will want it.

They don’t understand America or especially Americans!! I don’t think they want to either! 🤬☹️

Yeah, they seem to think that we should be forced to drive the little box Fiat's & Alpha's they are stuck with because many of their roads are based on medieval goat trails. They have no concept of what suburban & rural America are like.
