    Amid Brexit Fears, Companies Announce Production Stoppage

      ...bracing for a No-Deal Brexit...

    Jaguar Land Rover has announced a temporary halt in production in November as the threat of disruption from a No-Deal Brexit looms.  BMW and Toyota have already announced plans for temporary work stoppages at their UK factories. All four of JLR's UK factories are affected. 

    Although No-Deal Brexit is still not a certainty. Manufacturers like JLR have to plan for the worst.  JLR uses 20 million parts a day and needs to have those parts available at just the right time. 

    Toyota will be stopping production of the Corolla Hatchback and Avensis on November 1st. BMW is planning on stopping Mini production in early November, but Rolls-Royce and BMW engine plants are expected to continue production.

    This is going to get much worse and the working class that voted for this stupidity thinking it would make UK stronger are now realizing the narrow mindedness of the politicians who went after personal projects for the few over the good of the many.

    This is going to hurt the UK for a long long time.

    Sovereignty over all else is essentially the cry for Brexit.  Nobody said it was a great idea.  A lot of problems will show up post-Brexit, from economic calamities all the way to the breakup of the United Kingdom.  Good luck Boris!

      As opposed to the “original” designs from Kia and Hyundai that have borrowed from others for decades now? Make it make sense outside of your obvious anti Toyota bias.

      Yes some homage, but the sides of the original FJ did not squeeze in and look like a pinch cut off. This is a far better design imho. Nope not even started as it is still work time here, but so much of the front end I see already on the various Kia EV models. Nothing new in this.

      KIA EV4. Delayed. Indefinitely. For the...US market.

      By oldshurst442 · Posted

      For whatever reason,  the KIA EV4 has been postponed. From the US market. Until further notice.  Probably never to be offered actually. The EV3 however,  is expected to go on sale early 2026.    KIA says that EV market conditions have shifted and changed.  So there was a reason given actually.    Random thought:  Don't be surprised if even the EV3 does not go on sale in the US either.   For the same reasons as to why the EV4 is delayed and postponed indefinitely until further notice in the near to far future.     https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a69207203/kia-ev4-delayed-indefinitely-united-states/   The EV4 was supposed to be one of two affordable models to bolster the bottom end of Kia's electric lineup, but now seems unlikely to arrive stateside.   At least Mopar gets it... The EV Charger Daytona was canceled but a surprise Charger engine  will be announced shortly for it.   Could it be that Dodge will offer a supercharged 6.2 liter V8 for it?  Formally known as the Hellcat engine?   Oh baby baby baby!!!!  Maybe if KIA could also offer a supercharged V8 for it and call it the evangelical anti-christ,  they be in business.   Oh snap...built in South Korea...tariffs and all.  Ok ok ok... Maybe they build a factory...in Georgia.  That would be the state and not the country       for all the Americans reading this out there.  Not that Americans would actually know there is a country named Georgia anyhow...      Oh snap again...

      Sure, if you’re drunk and forgot your glasses, then they look the same lol.    Otherwise, if there was a Kia badge on that, you’d be praising the design. See the EV3 as an example.
