  1. 4R said that Fiat 120 is coming from Poland. Am I right? Don't know nothing about 500 5 door. 🤷‍♂️
  2. Maybe the 3rd model is not an SUV.
  3. Sharing with DS and Lancia while making Italy and US as the main markets is oxymoron. I could find three FCA brands which are better for Alfa Romeo platform sharing than any DS or Lancia. I'm talking about Dodge, Jeep and Maserati.
  4. Then you know nothing. FCA Italy or now Stellantis Italia is exactly doing that. Developing Small Wide product for one American brand. Brand in question is not Jeep.
  5. You think? Hmh. AFAIK it's different, very different. Anyways it's completely developed in Italy. For the time being one American brand will stay on FCA platforms. They may get as much as 4 new cars on unibody FCA platforms.
  6. Tavares made a lot of bad calls during his tenure at PSA. Basically he had killed PSA in China and South America. He made PSA Europen only group and without Opel it would be France only group. They are almost irrelevant outside of France. But contrary to Italians French people will buy their cars and not German and that's what made PSA thriving. Hearing what he said today I must say that he will make a lot of dubious call. Peugeot is for him by fat the most important European brand from Stellantis. And he will push all three premium brands, Lancia, DS and Alfa. I found it silly and completely stupid.
  7. PSA have postponed their fake DCT by one year:
  8. I would argue and say that this model should be offered in Europe. Model like this is much more important than for example Cherokee.
  9. 2008 better than 500X? BS! 500X is a designed like a compact car, not subcompact. And it's much older than 2008. Thus it has more weight. But it offer superb torsional rigidity and passive safety in comparison to 2008. No doubt about it. FCA Mini platform is comparable to PSA CMP. Small Wide is akin to EMP2. Speaking about market success. Just compare how strong is French market against Italian, not only in terms of total sales but in terms of market segmentation. What kills FCA in Europe is really Italian market where they havr a combination of impoverishment of customers and hate towards Fiat.
  10. It depends on a trim level you choose. Let's say that Jeep is sort of jack of all trades. It's cross shopped against Ford but also against BMW or Audi.
  11. Similar car to Das Shit 7 Crossback is Alfa Tonale, certainly not a Maserati.
  12. http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PTXT&s1="US+10,914,362+B2"&OS= Modular motor vehicle hybrid transmission convertible between six, eight, and nine speeds Abstract A modular hybrid transmission configurable between a 9-speed configuration and an 8-speed configuration includes first, second, third, and fourth planetary gear sets each having first, second, and third elements. Seven torque transmitting devices are each selectively engageable to interconnect one of the first, second, and third elements of one of the planetary gear sets directly with (i) one of the first, second, and third elements of another one of the planetary gear sets, (ii) a housing, or (iii) an input member. The seven torque transmitting devices are selectively engageable to establish nine forward speed ratios and at least one reverse speed ratio. Upon removal of a fourth torque transmitting device, the transmission is arranged in the 8-speed configuration and the remaining six torque transmitting devices are selectively engageable to establish eight forward speed ratios and at least one reverse speed ratio.

  13. ZF on Tonale? ZF 9HP? I don't know. As I said FCA is working on something new for FWD cars. I don't know if it will be ready for Tonale. 2.0 turbo on Tonale? Knowing what is its "sister car" I would think that it's quite possible.
  14. It shouldn't be a 1.3 T4. It could be a 1.5 T4 but I would not exclude 1.0 T3.
  15. For sure there will be Getrag Magna 7 speed wet DCT with built in electric motor. It should be used with the new 1.5 turbo engine. I can say that FCA is working on a brand new automatic transmission for FWD cars. I don't know when and where will they use it.
  16. Different GME and different ZF... It wouldn't work in US. Alfa is driver's cars and PHEV is all contrary to it. It would bring too much weight. Actually I'm not sure if 2.0 eBooster MHEV would work in US. Maybe for D segment but surely not fo an E-segment which is very important for future of Alfa Romeo brand in US. ZF 4th gen can be both P1 and P2 MHEV. Actually there is no HEV version anymore. Only MHEV and PHEV.
  17. First application of P2 MHEV technology will not be on Alfa Tonale. It will be on another FCA brand. AFAIK P2 MHEV is strictly connected with the new 1.5 turbo engine.
  18. Grecale will have ambient lighting, that's for sure.
  19. If the timing from VP to SOP is the same for both models that would mean that Tonale VP should be seen on the road in April or May. You can't compare hand made car like MC20 with mass produced cars like Grecale or Tonale.
  20. I would put it differently. Will Grecale outperform Ghibli? Speaking about PHEVs, BEVs and hybrids in general. Mercedes will not offer EQC in US. The same with BME iX3. So it seems that PHEV is MUST for US market.
