    Rumorpile: Fiat, Jeep Plan A Crossover Offensive

      Fiat and Jeep have more Crossovers in the Works

    Fiat and Jeep are planning a big crossover offensive with a new larger model that will sit above the 500X/Renegade and a smaller model.

    Autocar reports the two automakers are working on a new crossover to take on the Nissan Qashqai - one of popular crossovers on sale in Europe. Fiat's version will become the flagship for the brand, while Jeep's version will take the place of the Compass and Patriot. It's expected that Jeep will show their version first sometime in 2016, followed by Fiat.

    Following that will be a much smaller crossover which will sit underneath the 500X/Renegade and take the place of the Panda Cross for Fiat. If given the green light, both models will be designed and sold for Europe only. No word on a possible release date.

    Be interesting to see how much the replacement for the Compass/Patriot will look like the US replacement version. I thought this year some time they would show off the replacement version here in the US.

     

    The smaller version below the Renegade would be a true competitor to the Mini. I would think Jeep would want that here also.

      This is not good for them and continues to show how terribly run Tesla is. Oil and gas supplier says Tesla is ‘refusing to pay’ $2 million in past-due bills – and that chaotic staffing has only made it worse

      Very interesting, but shows how good BYD packages their EV components compared to American, Japan, Europe and Korea. BYD's Five-Minute Fast-Charging EV Also Has An Enormous Frunk I will say that My EV9 frunk is big in comparison to GM, all of Japan and Europe EVs, but small in comparison to the packaging by Chinese auto companies and BYD clearly took the frunk approach to our U.S. EV Trucks and applied it to their cars and SUVs. HUGE BYD SUV Frunk BYD Car Frunk, Tesla has nothing on this, except to say Tesla is very tiny in comparison.

      Today I'm deep fried in "trinacria" ... Three days of this.  I didn't want to leave and go to a more rural place with no view in another area.  The outline across is the Italian mainland, so I'm about 30 miles south of Messina, where the distance across the strait is about a mere 1.5 miles. As I'm traveling south on the autostrada after checking out, this pullout with an Autogrill has a nice view of Mt. Etna. I went into a store to pick up some groceries and saw this:  Fonzies and Cipster!  Cipster is spelled for Italian phonetics because Chipster would be pronounced "Keep-stare." While going for a haircut based on Google reviews, I passed by this place. I had to take a photo showing "team spirit."

      He's reduced his stake in BYD from 10% to less than 5%.  https://fortune.com/asia/2024/07/23/warren-buffett-berkshire-hathaway-cuts-byd-stake-china-ev/
