Stellantis has informed suppliers that the production timelines for its extended-range Jeep and Ram electric vehicles have been pushed back once again, adding to a growing pattern of EV schedule revisions across the industry. The delays signal continued recalibration of the automaker's electrification strategy as it grapples with softer-than-expected consumer demand for electric trucks and SUVs, alongside persistent cost pressures. For suppliers already investing in new tooling and capacity for these models, the repeated postponements raise questions about the financial viability of their commitments. The moves come as major automakers broadly reassess their EV roadmaps in response to shifting market conditions and intensifying competition from Chinese manufacturers.
