Stellantis The latest automotive news and reviews, without the fluff. Our free daily newsletter delivers the most important stories straight to your inbox every weekday. Stellantis' American brands are actively working to reintroduce the Hemi V8, with the Dodge Durango at the forefront. Initially, when the company revealed plans to bring back the SRT Hellcat variant, it stated that sales would not be permitted in 17 states adhering to California Air Resources Board (CARB) emissions standards. However, that restriction has now been lifted in 10 states, leaving just seven where sales are still not allowed. “In October, the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat received approval for orders in 10 more CARB states, which include Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Virginia,” a Stellantis statement indicates. “It remains unavailable for sale in 7 states, down from 17 in August 2025. We are continuing to address policy changes and expect to be approved for orders in all 50 states by the end of this year. We plan to start orders for the Durango R/T 392 in the first quarter of 2026.” The company seems optimistic about making the super SUV available nationwide soon. This development is surprising compared to the situation last summer, prompting us to inquire with Dodge about what changed. Were there any mechanical modifications? Did political dynamics shift? The phrase “work through policy changes” suggests some movement, but despite multiple inquiries, they have not provided a definitive answer. Currently, only California, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Vermont, and Washington remain as the states where the 710-horsepower Durango Hellcat cannot be purchased. It’s possible that by January, the situation may evolve. However, it’s important to point out that non-Hellcat Durangos featuring the 5.7-liter V8 are available nationwide, as well as the 6.4-liter R/T model. Dodge mentioned back in August that the 360-hp Hemi would be the standard engine for future Durango production, with the V6 limited to fleet sales. Nonetheless, the brand's vehicle search tool continues to list numerous V6-powered GT vehicles on dealership lots, for those who might find 295 hp sufficient. Have a news tip?

      Outbreak Festival, in collaboration with All Points East, has announced that the iconic Californian band Deftones will headline the London leg in 2026. They are set to perform at Victoria Park on Sunday, August 23rd next summer. Following the energetic performance of Turnstile, who headlined Outbreak London’s first event earlier this year, Deftones will take the stage alongside a remarkable lineup that includes IDLES, Amyl and The Sniffers, JPEGMAFIA, Basement, Deafheaven, and more. This announcement comes after a busy summer for Deftones, during which they showcased a major outdoor concert at London’s Crystal Palace Park and released their highly praised album, ‘private music’. In the original Manchester edition of Outbreak, attendees will enjoy performances from headliners Alexisonfire, who will play their 2006 cult classic album ‘Crisis’ in its entirety, along with sets from Basement, Suicidal Tendencies, Pup, High Vis, and others. Tickets for All Points East / Outbreak Fest London will be available for general sale this Friday, November 14th, while tickets for Outbreak Festival Manchester (June 26th, 27th, and 28th) are currently available.

Less than five months after his successful headline performance on the Other Stage at Glastonbury, London rap artist Loyle Carner brought the essence of his fourth studio album ‘Hopefully!’ to the renowned O2 Academy Brixton for a sold-out four-night run, featuring support from talents like Rejjie Snow, Navy Blue, Léa Sen, and Brian Nasty. Carner’s debut album ‘Yesterday’s Gone’ was released in 2017, and his ascent to fame has been both remarkable and steady since then. His latest album primarily addresses themes of family, showcasing his vulnerability and humility on tracks like ‘About Time’ and ‘Feel at Home’—where he candidly discusses the challenges of managing fatherhood alongside fame and a busy touring schedule. True to his musical style, the overarching themes remain those of love, hope, and gratitude. He opens the homecoming performance with ‘all i need’—one of the lead singles from the new album that expresses a desire for peace amid life's challenges. As he and the band take the stage, they are greeted with loud, ecstatic cheers that resonate throughout the hour and a half that follows. The excitement momentarily subsides during the transitions between songs, during which Carner expresses his gratitude to the audience, his band, and the venue staff in his signature heartfelt way. After starting the set with several tracks from ‘Hopefully!’, the crowd's audible joy at the familiar saxophone riff from his 2017 hit ‘Ain’t Nothing Changed’ proved that interest in his earlier work remains strong, despite the influx of new fans he has gained with each album release. This was further confirmed during his performance of ‘Damselfly’, where the entire audience joyfully sang along to Tom Misch’s catchy hook. At one point, a woman fainted in the crowd. Upon noticing, Carner took a moment to pause the show to check on her and thanked the audience for their composure. Once the situation was under control, he encouraged everyone to take a few deep breaths and expressed appreciation for the venue’s security team for their swift response. “This place gets a bad reputation, but it’s a beautiful, special place, man!” he said to the audience, referring to the venue's negative publicity following the tragic events at a sold-out Asake concert in December 2022 where two fans lost their lives due to an unauthorized entry attempt. Carner dedicated ‘Homerton’ to the NHS and then welcomed American rapper and professional skateboarder Navy Blue for a soulful performance of ‘Purpose’. The crowd cheerfully filled in for Jorja Smith on the ethereal chorus of ‘Loose Ends’—one of five tracks from Carner’s second album ‘Not Waving, But Drowning’ included in the set. Similar to his earlier Glastonbury show, Carner's careful arrangement of the performance created a relaxed, contemplative, and immersive experience of jazz-infused hip-hop over the hour and a half. However, it was regrettable to see some of his earlier upbeat tracks, like ‘No CD’ and ‘The Isle of Arran’, not included. The band also enhanced the performance by delivering some exceptionally cool solos, particularly from Portuguese guitarist Raquel Martins, who recently released her debut album ‘LONDON, WHEN ARE U GONNA FEEL LIKE HOME?’ in May, and who also supported Carner during his warm-up shows at KOKO in Camden last month.
