Pricing Announced Jan 26th of this year for an original spring 2022 release... Spring technically ended June 21st. Hardly a year ago... 😉If you think what is happening with the JGC 4xe is similar to what's happening with other brands, you need to get out more. This was supposed to be out like a year ago and we're still waiting on deliveries that are a moving target. Jeep has been less than forthcoming with real info, leading dealers to peddle bullshit and sell it as gospel to appease customers. It's a clown show at Jeep.
Ford started to have production delays in February of this year due to chip shortages...
I believe I do get out plenty, pay attention to the markets and economy, and tend to have a very grounded look at what's happening in the world. Delays happen. Why they chose not just to say there were production delays? Who knows. I'm also glad that they didn't just produce a bunch with missing parts and leave them sitting on lots for months Unfinished.
Edit to add... The original announcement seems to be July 2021 for a 2022 model, but no release date is set. Car companies announce cars all the time (or at least used to) and not get them to market for years.
Edit 2 - Auto Show debut was only in September of 2021
