One of you gave the correct answer. At least from what I've heard it seems that way but I repat it was a long ago. Like in 2018. And contrary to GME T4 which has an open deck block this one has closed desk engine block. In addition to GME T6 there is the 2nd generation GME T4 in development.

EMP2 v3? I saw videos of the new DS4 and it didn't convince me. They still have issues with the rear knee room. Same rear suspension choice with twisted beam. I already said it and now I'll repeat it. Actions like using EMP2 v3 would led time to the dark ages of the worst Alfiats. I'm talking about products like 145/146, 155 or even MiTo. And we know how they ended. EMP2 v4? I don't know if they'll make some adaptations for premium brands. But problems with PSA are always the same. Their engineering is really not worth the shit. What PSA does well or even the best in the car business are their retail channel and marketing.

@pennellotref Unfortunately politicians are idiots. It's not unlikely that car ownership will be a premium in the future. But also PHEV is a must in the future. Many car makers have set goals of the 100 km electric range as the ultimate goals for PHEVs. With upcoming technology the price of batteries but also their weight will not prohibitive as is today.

Yes, but I'm not expecting that many people will buy them. Grand Cherokee could be the best selling SUV with north of $50k MSRP. The one will be surprised to see how much is Grand Cherokee cross-shopped with German premium SUVs.No... The new engines will be 1.2 I3 Tce and 1.5 I4 Tce. Actually these engines already exist as naturally aspirated for many years now. They are produced by Nissan. Diesel engines will live in commercial Renault vehicles but they said that they will live for passenger cars if market wants them.Moose test is not for the dynamic qualities of a car. It's something else. PSA doesn't have good driving qualities. Actually far from it. And their technical base is for several reasons lacking for a proper Alfa Romeo. Not just set-up. It's lacking both in suspension typology and materials. To this day Giulietta is more advanced in suspension department than all compact EMP2 cars. Nuff said.Usage of PSA platforms is a step towards the darkest age of Alfiats. I'm talking about cars like 145/146, 155 and MiTo. Cars which had zero Alfa's DNA. This is the way to kill Alfa Romeo brand. If eVMP is based on EMP2 then it brings all of drawbacks into a game. No independent rear suspension, no front aluminum suspension, very long nose which gives unpleasant side proportions, tiny rear bench leg room... It only brings BEV option but every platform could receive BEV platform if they want to do it. Small Wide BEV? I haven't heard about it. Who knows, maybe they'll give a green light to it. Dunno.Ouch! As always with EMP2 even this EMP2 v3 seems to have very little rear leg room. In addition to this every EMP2 car has a very long, even too long nose, which gives unpleasant side look.

Taggato come:
Dodge has 4 or 5 new cars in the cards. And that's it. It could end up with sedan, Coupe and 2 or 3 SUVs. I don't know how many of them are green lit. The one of them will be in production in less than 18 months. I can say as much. Future of Dodge is not dependent on PSA. They are 100% FCA products.It's a very interesting article. A lot is truth. And the part where they say that the Alfa is the biggest sounds nice. I would like to be true. In general speech about Alfa Romeo. I was always for Alfa Romeo B-SUV and for C segment Alfas on FWD platforms. Giorgio for C-segment is a non sense. But Alfa shouldn't be just a rebadged Pug, it must offer something more for a driver. IMO, with just Alfa style and badge the risking disasters such as Alfiat 155 or Mito. In the past we had proper FWD Alfas like 147 and 156, I would even add Giulietta to this list. They must be a guide. Alfa B-SUV? If it offers Limited Slip Differential, adjustable suspension, and 1.5 turbo with 200+ HP as options it's fine. Who would ask for more? But id it stops at 1.2 turbo with 130 HP, no LSD and no adjustable suspension it's nothing more than a Pug 2008 or Opel Mokka. It's a lipstick on a pig.
