Stellantis and Dongfeng will build two Jeep and two Peugeot models. Jeep’s China sales have cratered by more than 90 percent in recent years. The Wrangler, Gladiator, and Grand Cherokee are the only models sold in China. More details have emerged about the new models that Jeep will build in China through its local partnership with Dongfeng Motor Group. Under the deal, Jeep will develop two electrified models leveraging Dongfeng technology and sell them not only in China, but also export them internationally.

The front wheels of the Viper replica can be turned with a roof-mounted knob. It’s unlikely that an American performance car like the Dodge Viper will ever be built again. Fortunately, thanks to Lego, you can remember this great period of motoring with an 805-piece model of the successful Viper GTS-R race car, and it even includes a somewhat functional V10 engine. The racing version of the Dodge Viper competed for almost a decade in Europe and the US, winning multiple championships and overall victories at the 24 Hours of Nürburgring, Rolex 24 at Daytona, and Spa 24 Hours. It’s an American racing icon, so it makes sense why Lego has decided to launch a Technic model of it for anyone over the age of 10 to enjoy.

The bow tie brand is now trying to address that as they’re evolving  High Country to become “more modern, athletic and contemporary.” The revamp starts with the 2027 Traverse and will continue with the redesigned Silverado 1500.
