Stellantis Just Confirmed Will the Hemi V8 Survive?
Stellantis has been on a killing spree, eliminating semi-powers from various models. Although increasingly rare, the 6.4-liter Hemi V8 is clearly here to stay in the future. That remains to be seen, but the engine powered the Ram 2500 Power Wagon concept at SEMA. Hemipower was once a hallmark of Dodge and Ram, but the once-ubiquitous engine is becoming increasingly rare. In addition to the absence of HEMI in the redesigned Dodge Charger, HEMI is no longer used in the facelifted Ram 1500 and the latest versions of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Jeep Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer. var adpushup = window.adpushup = window.adpushup || {que:()}; adpushup.que.push(function() { if (adpushup.config.platform !== "DESKTOP") { adpushup.triggerAd("4d84e4c9 -9937-4f84-82c0-c94544ee6f2a"); } else{ adpushup.triggerAd(" 6a782b01-facb-45f3-a88f-ddf1b1f97657"); } }); While the engine range continued in a handful of models - including the Durango and Wrangler 392 (not so) final editions - it was widely seen as ominous. However, a version of the popular powertrain may stick around for a while.…
Which car brand won’t survive in the next 10 years?
There are many potential answers here and we hope you can give us reasons for choosing one of them Many car brands face challenges, but only a few may not survive the next decade. Consumer preferences and electric vehicle mandates are forcing automakers to rethink survival strategies. As the industry shifts toward electric vehicles, traditional automakers may struggle to remain competitive in the long term. In the automotive world, brands often make big bets on the future without any guarantee of success. If a brand makes too many bad choices, it may risk shutting down entirely. That's exactly what happened to Fisker, and now the looming question is, who will be next? Today, you tell us which brand you think won’t be around in ten years. Our main image shows the Chrysler Pacifica, which until recently was the only member of its lineup. Chrysler decided to revive the Voyager nameplate, which is a basically similar model.

Volkswagen considers closing factories to survive
The new Tiguan may or may not come to IndiaVolkswagen, one of the world's most iconic automakers, is facing financial pressures that could lead to unprecedented plant closures in Germany. Volkswagen CEO Oliver Blume revealed that the company is considering closing some plants to meet its goal of cutting costs by 10 billion euros by 2026, sparking anger among employees and concerns among German politicians.
