    Jeep Is Responsible For Big Chunk Of New Car Sales Growth

      Jeep Is Playing A Big Part In the Automotive Sales

    Jeep has always been the most important part of Chrysler. But now its an important part of new car sales in general. Automotive News has been crunching the numbers and has figured out that in the past eleven months, automakers have sold around 780,000 more vehicles than at this same time last year. Out of that, one out of every four was a Jeep.

    Jeep has been having a remarkable 2014. The brand has seen its sales sales climb 44 percent in the past year. Brand loyalty has also been rising, with Jeep posting a increase of 16 percent. That puts it right behind Maserati and Mitsubishi according to IHS automotive.

    Jeep's massive growth has also been helping out its parent company, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles. The company has seen its sales rise 16 percent in the past year, and its market share grow from 8.7 percent in March 2010 to 13.2 percent now.

    “It’s a whole different feeling now. It’s not a rental-car fleet anymore. The consumer is buying our product,” said Chuck Eddy, a Chrysler dealer in Youngstown, Ohio, and chairman of the Chrysler National Dealer Council.

      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.
