The current 410V4 and 210V2 aren't bad designs, but they are just evolutions of the existing platform. My 210 is now at or past V2 spec with various upgrades (but without actually buying a V2) and my 410 could be V4 spec if I could be bothered. So existing owners aren't buying the latest version. Meanwhile with all sorts of exciting and genuinely new cars from other companies out there Durango isn't attracting many drivers from other cars.
What does this mean for the brand?
They need to get people interested in their cars again. Either something radical and different (which a 410 based 2wd isn't really but its a step) or just get some people winning major races with their cars - which has worked for Associated for years!
