Another quarter is over, another batch of zombie cars stubbornly appears in Stellantis' sales chart. Indeed, the numbers are out and they show some vehicles simply refuse to die, making them the mainstream equivalent of a Pagani Zonda. There were no Jeep Patriots or Chrysler 300s in Q1 2022, but one person bought a Dodge Dart while another two purchased its equivalent from the Chrysler, the 200 compact sedan.
How old are these cars? Well, the final Dart produced in Illinois at the Belvidere Assembly Plant dates back to September 2016. The Chrysler 200 is nearly as old, having left the assembly line at the Sterling Heights factory in December 2016. We wouldn't necessarily rush over to buy a car that has been collecting dust for nearly six years, but maybe the juicy discount was worth the risk.
