Are Dodge still in the UK?

[Ari]

I noticed Dodge had fallen off of Car Magazine's "GBU" car lists section some while ago. Then I noticed that Top Gear magazine have dropped them too.

Dodge UK seems to list plenty of UK dealers so I wondered what the deal was with them?

I don't know if Dodge is/isn't trading in the UK, but in 2011 they registered 0 cars in the UK.

You only have to look at some of their model range to work out why...

From their website, it doesn't look as if they are currently selling any new cars. Maybe they are just waiting for the new Fiat group models to come out such as the Alfa Romeo Giulietta based Dodge Dart.

Looks rather interesting imo;

Caliber and Nitro were killed off in the UK in mid-2010. http://www.autoblog.com/2010/05/19/dodge-stops-sel...

Journey was deleted later in 2010, effectively removing Dodge as a new car manufacturer in the UK market. http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/industry/dodge-a...

Last year they pulled out of Europe, some of it lives on under other brands (like the Fiat Freemont, which is Journey-based).

The dealers listed on their website will be for the same group, so selling Chrysler and Jeep these days.

There isn't a "new cars" section on the website either.

The Dart I'd actually be interested in I think.

Makes a pretty good Rally Cross car as well.

What???

Beauty in the eye of the beholder and that, but this looks like a mildly updated Neon to me.

The Neon wasn't that bad a looker, it was just a typical US car of it''s time in being a bit plasticky and agricultural. Design wise it was good. Whereas the Giulietta is a rather bloated Blob that actually looks best from the back. I'm sorry but I prefer sharper styling.
