Chrysler Is About To Become An 'Experiment'
The latest car news, reviews, and features. Chrysler's current status? 'Ripe for a new chapter,' according to Ralph Grilles, design chief at Stellantis. Gilles gave the viewpoint to Automotive News during an interview Friday at the automaker's centennial celebration. With 100 years under Chrysler's belt Gille's said 'it's time for us to pivot' and 'we're going to experiment with the brand.' Currently, Chrysler offers one single model in the showroom: the Chrysler Pacifica minivan. You might say the automaker has nowhere to go but up. Gilles, an executive at the automaker, acknowledged the current state of affairs by stating the brand is going to stand for 'a brand-new conquest customer.' Conquest customers are those that are stolen from other competing brands. Chrysler Portal Concept FCA US LLC Chrysler was set to be an all-electric brand by 2028. The future seems to be in a state of change. Development on an electric crossover, that was supposedly not based on the Airflow concept yet the concept looked nearly production ready and intent, was halted in January. It's unclear if, or when, that will be unpaused. The electric mid-size crossover to be based on the new STLA Large platform, which underpins the Jeep Wagoneer S electric SUV, was to launch in 2025. Chrysler CEO Chris Feuell told The Drive in November the Chrysler Pacifica minivan will receive a refresh in 2026. Meaning, now, the next product from Chrysler will quite possibly be a second refresh of its current minivan a year from now. The refresh will bring design elements from the Chrysler Halcyon concept, which debuted in 2024, to the automaker's … minivan. The concept was an exotic-looking swoopy four-door couple with coach doors. The refresh seems to be still be green lit and coming. Feuell said the Pacifica refresh would be followed a year later in 2027 by an electric Pacifica. It's unclear at this point if the electric Pacifica is still on track and in the cards for 2027. At the time, the executive wouldn't specify whether the plug-in hybrid Pacifica, currently on sale, or a range-extended Pacifica akin to the Ram Charger EREV pickup truck, would exist. It's possible with Ram's most recent lineup changes–the Hemi V8 returned, the Ramcharger launch was moved up and the electric Ram Rev has been delayed to who knows when–the electric Pacifica won't arrive in 2027 as originally planned. The Drive reached out to Chrysler for comment regarding the timeline of the electric Pacifica and will update this story if or when the automaker responds. Chrysler's sole remaining product today is about one thing: function. Gilles said while the future is about aerodynamics, it also has to be about function. The automaker needs to get people to fall in love with low cars. The reason? They are more efficient. 'We're trying to get people to like that, to understand that, to fall in love again, with lowrider,' the design exec said. Understanding the future of Chrysler might be understanding its past and executive's tastes. At the end of 2023 the last Hemi-powered Chrysler 300C rolled off the assembly line. Earlier in 2023 an electric Chrysler 300 successor had reportedly already been shown to dealers. The EV was said to be based on the STLA Large electric platform, which underpins not only the Jeep Wagoneer S, but also the Dodge Charger Daytona. The one vehicle with a special place in Gille's heart? 'Without question, the 2006 300C SRT8. Just a beautiful blend of muscle and elegance,' the exec said. But Chrysler's calling card, according to Gilles, has always been about value for money. 'It is the value for money, the prestige for money, the presence for money. That's what I want to be about going forward.' And while that value proposition is great, it's unclear beyond a refreshed Pacifica and maybe an electric Pacifica, what exactly Chrysler has on offer to bake that value for money into. Maybe that's part of the experiment? Got tips? Send 'em to tips@

Tesla Stock Downgraded On ‘Double-Edged Sword' Of Musk's Politics
Tesla earned a new analyst downgrade in the wake of last week's stunning showdown between the formerly close allies in Tesla CEO Elon Musk and President Donald Trump, as the stock continues to face pressure from Musk's activities outside of his executive duties. In a Monday note to clients, Baird analysts led by Ben Kallo cut their rating for Tesla stock from buy to neutral, cutting his share price target for the automaker 14% from $370 to $320, still above Tesla's $297 ticker Monday. Kallo partially attributed his waning optimism on Tesla to last week's spar between Musk, the richest person on Earth and the top GOP donor in the 2024 election cycle, and Trump, who said Musk 'lost his mind' after the centibillionaire went after Trump, most explosively suggesting the president was in some way connected to the late Jeffrey Epstein's criminal activities. Musk's 'relationship with President Trump has been a positive, but now adds uncertainty and fuels questions regarding brand damage' for Tesla, explained Kallo. Also driving the downgrade was skepticism on Tesla's looming robotaxi launch meeting expectations. The Baird group noted it forecasts just 6,000 of the driverless cabs will be on the road by the second half of next year, a fraction of the 'hundreds of thousands' Musk recently predicted, though Kallo expressed optimism about Tesla's 'outsized opportunity' in robotaxis and robotics. Musk's 'ties to the government are a double-edged sword' for Tesla, according to Kallo, who noted Tesla stock's big runup following Trump's victory 'despite deteriorating fundamentals' in its core electric vehicle business. To that end, Tesla stock is up 17% since Election Day, trouncing the S&P 500 yardstick's 5% return. That outperformance came even as Tesla's underlying financial and vehicle sales were exceptionally weak. Tesla's first-quarter vehicle deliveries grew at their worst annual pace on record, while its revenue came in at its lowest level since Q2 2022 and its net profit was its weakest since Q4 2020. Analysts pointed to the polarizing nature of Musk's right-wing political activity, headlined by his $288 million in donations to Trump and affiliated U.S. election efforts, as a key catalyst for this slump, as sales across western Europe and Democratic strongholds including California cratered in early 2025. Last week, Goldman Sachs analysts predicted Tesla's vehicle deliveries this quarter would fall at a record 18% pace compared to the same period last year. Wedbush analyst Dan Ives, one of the most outspoken voices covering Tesla and often among the most bullish, maintained Monday his Wall Street-leading $500 price target for Tesla. Ives wrote to clients he still anticipates the Trump administration will 'fast track' key regulatory hurdles for Tesla in its robotaxi push 'despite the Musk beef.' Musk 'needs Trump for many reasons, including a green light on a federal framework' for autonomous driving, explained Ives. More than $20 billion. That's how much poorer Musk is since last Wednesday, just before his clash with Trump reached a fever pitch. Musk is still worth a world-leading $394 billion, according to Forbes' calculations.
