Dodge Direct Connection and Jay Leno’s Garage to Offer Premium Car Care Products
New initiative will deliver more than 20 premium car detailing and car wash supplies
Iconic television host and comedian Jay Leno and Dodge Brand CEO Tim Kuniskis teamed up today to announce a new line of co-branded car care products from Direct Connection, the Dodge brand’s performance products line, and Jay Leno’s Garage.
The new initiative will feature more than 20 premium car detailing and car wash products under the Direct Connection/Jay Leno’s Garage banner, including Direct Connection quick detailer, Direct Connection interior detailer, Direct Connection all-purpose cleaner and many more products. A branded Direct Connection detailing bucket will also be sold with a starter kit selection of car care items.
Leno and Kuniskis announced the new partnership at Vinsetta Garage in Berkley, Michigan, during the annual Woodward Cruise event, which draws tens of thousands of enthusiasts each year to cruise along metro Detroit’s historic Woodward Avenue. The duo will drive Woodward in new 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 “Last Call” special-edition vehicles following the press conference announcement and make a stop at the official Dodge brand Woodward Cruise display to personally hand out free samples of the product line.
“When it comes to really caring about and maintaining the most amazing vehicles in the world, there’s really no one better to team up with than Jay Leno,” said Tim Kuniskis, Dodge brand chief executive officer – Stellantis. “Jay’s a member of the Brotherhood of Muscle, and we couldn’t be more excited to join together our Direct Connection brand with Jay Leno’s Garage in order to introduce a premium new line of co-branded car care products for enthusiasts.”
Jay Leno’s Garage was also announced earlier this spring as the trusted source for premium car care products delivered with the new, 1,025-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170. Leno was also part of the Las Vegas reveal of the Challenger SRT Demon 170 back in March and was surprised by Kuniskis and the Dodge brand with the presentation of his own personal Demon 170 during today’s press conference. The presentation represented the first customer delivery of the Challenger SRT Demon 170, the fastest, quickest, most powerful factory muscle car in the world.
