9,607 negative comments. Not even ONE comment here saying that they like they car. That's some pretty telling market feedback; the management team at Stellantis is likely already packing the stuff off their desks into cardboard boxes.

[@dominikz.1376]

That’s right. Infiniti announced that 2024 was the last year of rhe v8 in their flagship suv the qx80. The used low mileage qx 80s are disappearing in like 5 seconds, and the turbo v6 new inifijiti’s will be sitting and sitting. The market has spoken across many applications: Americans want normal vehicles and many prefer big displacement v8s and not ev’s, nor twin turbo trash. Fuck the environment, I say bring back the 7.4 Liter and 8.0 liter naturally aspirated v8’s and let them guzzle gas: who cares. Dodge charger ev: wow! Pack your shit

[@BlueSkyCrystals]

@@dominikz.1376Hybrids and sustainable fuels are the way forward. Nobody asked for EVs to be the only option but politicians tried to force it with their ICE bans that will never happen.

[@goatbaaad3711]

@@dominikz.1376i remember reading this article that claimed that if everyone on earth drove used diesels, we would be doing better for the environment than building all these EV manufacturing sites. And I can see it, I’m a superintendent for a big concrete company, we did a BMW manufacturing site, a $1.6 billion contract, and all day, every day, for give or take a year, there are countless gigantic diesel machines running…. Literally all day. Dump trucks, delivery trucks, multiple cranes, countless forklifts and lulls, on site concrete plant, and concrete trucks running all day. That doesn’t even include all generators, including the big one that gives power to the General Contracter’s trailer… again all day every day. Also now we have these big ass lithium battery’s that are going to be extremely difficult to recycle. So actually, the EV’s are actually not good for the environment.

[@crowfeedreactions]

And the worst part is, it was COMPLETELY, 100% predictable. Everyone knew this is exactly what was going to happen. Simply put, it was too ambitious. They had a golden goose, a car that STILL sold in good numbers more than a decade after its initial launch and yet they decided to go trendy and... now they get what they deserve. This is not to say they couldn't have done an EV. But the guys are right: if you're gonna do an EV, then do a pure EV. Having an "EV line" and an ICE line would've been the smartest choice. Then let the consumer decide which one they preferred.

[@Map71Vette]

Honestly, I really like the car. If I wanted an EV this would be the top of my list. I think people keep assuming this was supposed to be something it's not. It's not a corner carving crazy monster. It's a bruising commuter. I think it looks great and is pretty cool. Sure it's heavy and big, but why is that such a big issue? It's not like the old cars were lithe lightweights.

If a critical sensor that will cause a Chrysler/dodge/jeep engine to cook itself to death 100,000 miles early costs $0.20, versus a critical sensor that costs $0.21 that will preserve a vehicle for 100,000 miles and give repair free operating time, Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep will always always opt for the $0.20 sensor to save $0.01 per vehicle.
