The success of the new Charger could extend Dodge a few more years but a failure might be a quick end to Dodge. I could see Stellantis moving more manufacturing for Jeep and Ram to Mexico which I believe will eventually be the only surviving brands of the old Chrysler.

Stellantis needs to address the high dealer inventory level by giving better incentives and low interest rates to clear excessive inventory.
