  1. 2.2 is must. Or completely redone 2.0. Certainly both 500X and Renegade will need Euro 6d diesel engines. And they will not be identical to any current FCA diesel. Will it be revolution or evolution? That's the question.
  2. I'm certain it is. But my hopes are in e-turbo hands. It's hard to fight against 4.0 V8 competitors. To have a low end torque as they have. They'll need e-turbo for it.
  3. PHEV is in the plans. I'm sure that most of you will be satisfied with interior design. They made step in right direction compared to current Jeep models.
  4. Japanese full hybrid models are mostly with NiMH batteries. Also there is more than one version of Lithium based batteries. The one as used for eTorque is NMC. You can read more here: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/types_of_lithium_ion Problem with batteries rise if it's a Class 9 hazard: https://www.general-data.com/about/blog/hazard-class-9-hazard-class-labels-explained Interesting that whole mild hybrid system for Wrangler adds only around 55 lbs (25 kg).
  5. Engine itself is the same one. But this one is without E.Torque mild hybrid system. But Wrangler for European market will also have this 2.0 turbo without E.Torque. Issue can be related with Lithium battery and transport of product with it. Which hazard class it is?
  6. Meh... This one is legit. I mean, I know who he is by the name and surname. An ex Chrysler veteran. And he is connected to...
  7. First versions were identical. But now 200 HP versions is without EGR. For years now we have heard that 350 HP has an additional battery for 48V system. But IMO. The most interesting part is. Will it have e-turbo or not?
  8. I know that PR material could be wrong. Actually I was contacted by one guy who worked something for GME. They messed up even a place where will it be assembled in the USA. LPDC or LPSC have some other advantages over HPDC. Like higher stiffness even with open deck design because walls are thicker. This is compensated on HPDC designs with "ribs". Also they have advantage if you need heat treatment or aging treatment. Something you can't do with HPDC. All of this can have repercussions on GME T6. Especially if it is a Inline 6 engine. Although GME could mean just a combustion chamber design, common bore and stroke dimensions... This was posted by one insider on Allpar. By someone who had worked something related to one GME:
  9. Can they use balance shafts on the side of the block with HPDC? Teksid is already making HPDC engine blocks for GSE in Brasil. Italian foundry is in the pilot process. What's interesting. Press release for new Cherokee says that engine block for 2.0 is made by LP sand casting and that engine itself is for now assembled in Termoli, Italy. If some of you remember. When they introduced Giulia for US market spec sheet for 2.0 GME version said that engine block is sand cast. All this sounds odd to me. Sand cast for mass produced engine block. Really? And Termoli as only place for assembly right now sounds like they have some issues in North American factory.
  10. Every GME is open deck. At least every currently available versions including one for Alfa. I don't know where foundry is. But I believe for now there is just one foundry used. For certain all GME engines are now assembled exclusively in Termoli.

  12. Guangzhou Automobile : to Execute GSE T4 Engine Project | 4-Traders (at http://www.4-traders.com/GUANGZHOU-AUTOMOBILE-GROU-6699755/news/Guangzhou-Automobile-to-Execute-GSE-T4-Engine-Project-24438457/ )
  13. Press conference is publicly available. What to say? Some journalists are morons. Sergio has dislike to some of them and he was very sarcastic. The last sentence in the answer was: "We believe we will hit the target.".
  14. From press release: Interesting if true, that leaves place for closed deck design if necessary. This is first time they mentioned engine block in any car with GME T4.
