- Stellantis’s Belvidere factory has been mothballed since February 2023 after the carmaker temporarily discontinued production of the Jeep Cherokee crossover. John Elkann additionally committed to build the next-generation Dodge Durango in Detroit as promised, after sacking the CEO who broke that pledge.
Signaling support for Donald Trump’s “Made in America” agenda, embattled carmaker Stellantis has had a change of heart and will now move forward with billion-dollar investments to secure the future of two endangered U.S. factories.
