Hmm on one hand it’s saying it’s been diversified and on the other it’s saying the SRT is no longer. Wow does this mean the HC is maybe done? Like 2021 Done.........? And did everyone’s HC just appreciate? I would say a strong yes😁

😡🤬 Big mistake. The SRTs are the halo cars that I believe drive a lot of their other sales. This just another step toward the world were moving to.. SXTs for everyone! 🤬😡

The World Governments are fining the hell out of Ice and if you look in the other thread labeled
Poll: What year will mark the end of the All-ICE Hellcat? I

If you read this you will understand why the Ice Age is being fazed Out. You need Fred Flintstone vehicles to be able to meet the new World Government EPA guidelines. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2020-04-30/pdf/2020-06967.pdf
Read the EPA mandates and it’s pretty radical for Dodge Vehicles as we know them today in a fleet. There is a 40 Mpg fleet proposed and final mandate by 2026. And Dodge is already supposed to be at 37 MPG fleet average Which is why FCA is presently paying Tesla Billions in Carbon Tax Credits.
Fiat Chrysler to spend $2 billion on CO2 fines and credits
MILAN — Fiat Chrysler Automobiles plans to spend 1.8 billion euros ($2 billion) in the next three years to buy regulatory credits to minimize the amount of emissions-related fines it will pay in Europe and the U.S.

The figure was revealed by Chief Financial Officer Richard Palmer on May 3 during a conference call with analysts to discuss FCA’s first-quarter results.

Including 600 million euros ($670 million) spent in 2018, FCA is poised to spend at least 2.4 billion euros ($2.7 billion) from 2018 through 2021 on emission fines and regulatory-credit purchases. Based on what Palmer told analysts on the conference call, this is the complete picture:

Step back off the bridge and read the whole announcement:

"In February 2021, all of the core elements of the SRT performance engineering team were integrated into Stellantis’ global engineering organization.

This action will have the two-way benefit of ensuring that our brands’ SRT and performance-focused product offerings continue to meet the highest quality standards and expectations, while delivering key learnings from motorsports and other high-performance-technology applications across a wider mix of our company’s product lines.

These products have delighted enthusiasts for nearly two decades, and Stellantis will continue to sell and develop the next generation of Dodge//SRT-branded vehicles, as well as Jeep and Ram vehicles that utilize high-performance SRT technology."

The whole announcement is corporate speak for SRT is killed, but we will milk the name and reputation for all we can.

It'll be like AMG, once they were performance based now they seem to stick the badge on any model thats got some different wheels, crappy spoilers and fancy interior.

Another piece of this..

It now makes sense about killing the DHC from unlimited this year to "we're done"

Agreed. -And Dodge itself might be next.....along with Chrysler. They've (Stellantis) have already hinted at it.
SRT may become just a sport appearance package, which has already been done with the RT models....

Right and I read It over and over again and it does say the SRT brand as we know it t is no longer. But yes they will use this platform to grow another direction. So yes we will still have performance products but can’t see the Hellcat and Challenger Charger platform sticking around much longer.
