Update from Stellantis Company vehicle operations

Fast Eddie · 2025-10-03T14:53:14-0400

Dear Colleague,
We have an important update regarding vehicle availability for 2026 Model Year (MY) ordering.
Due to retail market demand, the Jeep Cherokee, previously listed as “Late Availability,” has been removed from the 2026MY ordering lineup at this time and will not be available to order.
If you are an existing participant and were planning to order the Jeep Cherokee as a replacement vehicle, waiting is no longer permitted. You are required to proceed with selecting an alternate vehicle from the current offerings, purchasing your current vehicle, or turning it in without replacement.
If your alternate choice is one of the remaining “Late Availability” models, you may continue to wait for it to open for ordering.

That's actually good news for people not leasing cars from Stellantis!

Adventurer55 · 2025-10-03T16:03:06-0400

So, if I'm reading this right, it's just not available as a company car choice?

Is this a sign that Cherokee is not coming out any time soon?

Ohhhh -- so it's just being removed from Fleet?

The memo is very confusing. Until you focus on "Company Vehicle". So I'm guessing, since no one is on here criticizing another cancelation, that this only applies to employee selections.
Sounds like there is too much demand for the Cherokee for them to allocate any for their employees.
Unless I'm totally wrong...lol

This is correct; the demand is coming in well thus it is being restricted from us to order through the Company Car Program. Sebastien Jacquet; Chief Quality Officer; posted on Linked a picture of the trucks at or near the plant.....fingers crossed but it seems initial orders are high.

movaldes · 2025-10-04T14:50:54-0400

That's great news. Honestly.
But I'm hoping there is a new Dodge somewhere in there, too.

rvk5150 · 2025-10-05T07:13:59-0400

Because of our track record lately I will not comment but....some programs are potentially in the works.

movaldes · 2025-10-05T08:52:28-0400

There was a report in an investment site which mentioned STLA committing to a $10B investment in the NA market which includes a new Dodge and possibly a Chrysler.
I'll wait...

Adventurer55 · 2025-10-05T08:04:09-0400

That's a good statement. And one of the reasons the company lacks credibility and stability. Everytime there's a merger or a new boss, the slate gets cleaned. If one is old enough, they remind me of an Etch-a-Sketch.

Bloomberg just mentioned that, and noted rebuilding Jeep as well as adding a V8 Dodge (probably just the Charger?) and so on.

10 billion invested in USA , but we all know the charger is built in Canada and Cherokee is built in Mexico. So maybe compass for to a USA plant ?

joewho · 2025-10-06T16:46:01-0400

Ok I know but what I was referring to is the article mentioned V8 charger ( Canada) & Cherokee ( Mexico ) why not actually mention American plants & products

Dave Z · 2025-10-07T14:09:30-0400

Also, once Durango ends, they can move Charger and Cherokee into Jefferson North.

$10 billion is about right to develop one vehicle and adapt the plant for it.
