Fiat’s Chrysler has just punted on the previously announced 2011 Jeep Wrangler diesel which in our opinion makes them complete idiots, announcing that no diesel will be in their future production plans in the near term after all.

]]> Comment on 2010 Chrysler Diesel Minivan….not for USA by zvrk6 http://dieseldig.com/2009/09/11/2010-chrysler-diesel-minivannot-for-usa/comment-page-1/#comment-12 zvrk6 Sun, 06 Dec 2009 03:16:00 +0000 http://dieseldig.com/2009/09/11/2010-chrysler-diesel-minivannot-for-usa/#comment-12 I don't understand how marketing geniuses at Honda, Toyota or Chrysler do not see priority in developing diesel minivan or hybrid minivan for the US market? As Mitchell pointed out these customers are more sensitive to fuel economy and protecting the environment. As a minivan owner, I echo that. If we weren't we would own large SUVs. Diesel engines are also very appropriate for long continuous travel (like vacation trips) that vans are often used by families. Could it be that this market segment is no longer that big because your last true innovation (rear sliding door) was introduced 24 years ago? Toyota and Honda are big on talking technical innovation but small on execution when it comes to minivans. Toyota talked hybrid and Honda diesel but results are still lacking. They are playing around with seats, sliding doors and adding more overpriced accessories. Their market strategy is to get more money for electronics and gimmicks, not achieve market differentiation with technological accomplishments. So, how are you going to attract me to your show room? What happened with creating compelling value proposition? Maybe you are, like Chrysler too busy laying off engineers and R&D folks, therefore unable to adapt diesel technology to US standards.

So what the are North-American Distributors waiting for? Is is it that an expensive investment? This Chrysler model is being manufactured here in Canada with tax payers money (to save thousands or jobs), we should have the right to buy this model ....Most US and Canadian car manufacturers and distributors have been rescued by government or public funds, why in the world wouldn't Canadian or US Governments force them to market models that reduce CO2 emissions...after all it's not only about MPG but also our health and environment!!! It is our roll and duty as voters and consumers to put pressure on our representatives and suppliers about how we want to spend our money and the type of heakthy environment we wish for our children...Please pass this message on and on and on...

Ford now has a premium diesel engine that they have 100% control over (good/bad). Perhaps the company can now spend less time in the courtroom and shop and more time dominating the heavy duty pickup market!!! :-) Hurray Ford!
