In his time as the head of Dodge, he spearheaded the launch of the Hellcat models and previewed its first-ever all-electric muscle car, the Charger Daytona.

Kuniskis copped to the fact that “...it’s all light duty dragging us down,” admitting that the company has been experiencing severe production delays in getting the next Ram LD to market.
