A Quick Guide To Chrysler Five Year Plan Stuffs

doge

What follows is a quick guide to some of the changes outlined during the big Chrysler meeting today. Derek will have some in-depth analysis tonight.

Alfa Romeo will be recast as a RWD/AWD enthusiast brand. There will be eight new products including a performance flagship that could be a 4C variant, but there will not be another supermini to replace the Mito.

FIAT will focus on the 500 brand; their European product line will be broadened with additional Panda variants. There could well be an MX-5 rival in 2018.

Jeep plans to heavily boost volume with the Renegade. A new Grand Cherokee and Wrangler will debut in 2017. Compass and Patriot will be replaced in 2016. A "Grand Wagoneer" will arrive in 2018 to target the Land Rovers.

Chrysler will have a "100″ sedan in the future as it moves downmarket (in theory) to face Ford and Chevrolet directly.

Dodge will purge the Caravan from its lineup and focus on sport. The volume burden of the Caravan and the already-deceased Avenger will move to Chrysler.

More information as we have it.

And yes, the top image is a GIMP manipulation. Such amusement!
