Good. they needed to cut the dead wood quickly, enough time has passed to make it clear that some of the brand leadership strategies were an approximation of "I'll sit back and collect a paycheck until I retire in 10 years".

Jeep sounds like a weird choice considering how badly they're underperforming outside NA, but Dodge effectively shat the bed with their product line despite gobs of funding, so I'm not overly surprised they're taking a back seat. The partnership with Leapmotor should (IMO) result in some fresh BEV product coming to the US and it would make sense that those SUVs sit under the Stellantis SUV brand, and leveraging that relationship rather than trying to ground-up yet another BEV platform would save badly needed cash.

Stellantis are one of the furthest behind in electrification strategy with the least notable hybrid tech, mostly only selling in niches they already effectively have a large ownership of (serious off-roaders with the Wrangler, Minivans, etc). This move couldn't come fast enough, but I still think some of those other brands need to not just be second string players, but cut completely - or at least mothballed until the 4 starters are established. I'm talking mostly about Chrysler, but probably also Lancia Opel and DS as well.
