Suuurree they are. Hasn't chromium getting more expensive over the past couple years? I'm guessing this sudden concern about the environment and the health of the workers will save them quite a bit of money in the long term.
Still, credit where credit is due, at least this cost cutting measure that actually has positive benefits for once.
Here in Detroit, Stellantis just asked for their factory to be allowed to pollute more, despite neighbors pushing back at how much they already pollute.
Bingo, and California moving to outright ban chrome plating shops. It's all about money, always was.
This is just like Apple and Samsung removing the charger from the cellphone box and claiming it's for the environment when in reality it's because now they can charge you $30+ more to buy one separately that comes in a second box.
Stellantis consistently builds some of the worst cars in the world and have been ignoring electrification for too long. They have a dim future once the Charger/Challenger are gone and this is just a cheap trick to attempt to revise their image.
