Chrysler, once a titan of the automotive industry, has dwindled to a mere shadow of its former self. Its current US lineup is a stark testament to this decline, with only two models on offer for 2024: the Pacifica and Pacifica Plug in Hybrid minivans. These aging vehicles, introduced in 2016, continue to be the sole representatives of the brand, despite their outdated design and limited appeal. Adding to the bleak picture, the Chrysler 300, a once iconic sedan, has been discontinued.

While the company has been busy updating other vehicles, the RAV4, which has been a sales success since its debut in 1994, remains unchanged.

However, in the digital car content creation, anything is possible. The Q Cars YouTube channel…
Image source: Getty Images When considering dividend stocks on the FTSE 250, it might seem logical to invest in the one with the highest yield. However, the yield alone means very little. Buying a stock with a 10% yield doesn’t guarantee it’ll pay out 10% on the investment. It might only pay 5% — or nothing at all. This is because yields fluctuate constantly but payments occur only a few times a year. The table below shows the current top 10 yielders on the index.

While BMW may seem indifferent to fan feedback on its recent designs, the truth is more nuanced. The oversized kidney grilles haven’t been universally adopted, and the XM’s divisive styling hasn’t influenced other models. Despite subjective opinions, the 8 Series stands out as a modern design gem. Its sleek lines and elegant proportions make it a standout among BMW’s current offerings. Rumors suggest the 8 Series may be discontinued next year, potentially replaced by an electric successor. This new model could share the CLAR platform with the current 8 Series and bridge the gap between the i5 and i7. While…
