I couldn't possibly care less about an electric charger.
I agree
If these cars had hemis, they wouldn't be able to make them fast enough.
Stellantis will fall on their face.
IMO Dodge will very likely be OUT OF BUSINESS in a year or two.
I guess you did not see Dodge in the 80s and 90s it is amazing that they managed to make it back from those decades of trash. Then the got they got the government bailout out in 2008. I still think it will sell and takes time for innovation.
@@DYIguy INNOVATION? I OWN A 2018 CHARGER R/T 5.7. GOOD CAR w/40000 miles. I still believe DODGE will be HISTORY. SAD.😎
@@cbowser8604 Lets hope not but like they say nothing lasts forever. I really like the current and future charger I think the will more then likely intro some V-8 model since the new design is setup for both EV and ICE.
Dodge is making a mistake by not rolling out the ICE cars first, no one is going to by the EV with the, "Fart-zonic" exhaust.
I think they might open up to a new market too maybe get new buyers too. Lets face facts burning dead dinosaurs cannot last forever and the combustion engine was not even in the first cars ever made. It was only because gas was a waste product of kerosene that it became super cheap and the go to fuel. The first cars ever made were EVs and if you do some research the muffler was invented because they could not get the EV car buyers to switch to gas powered cars back then because they were to noisy and blew out black smoke which no one wanted. Now we have the most powerful cars that are all sub 5 second EVs and people are never happy. I am glad that Dodge is keeping the name plate alive and still looks like a charger. You did not have to live with the crap charges of the 80s and the second gen challenger of the 80s which was a total embarrassment that Dodge made yet they put out this and everyone is mad. I saw the same comments when the charger came out with 4 doors and how no one will buy a 4 door charger!
Electric cars are very uninteresting. It’s got this 0-60, it’s got this dashboard screen, and it has four wheels
And they cannot be fixed at regular mechanic, meaning you are at jeopardy of the dealer.
And you have to stop off and wait around while it charges, where fueling up takes 5 mins.
And they can be shut off remotely. Typical hellcat owner running from cops will have his hellcat shut off before the chase starts
And I do not believe the mining of these batteries is any more ethical or environmentally friendly. I think it’s greenwashing
Sodium/Ion is the way. Lithium has the same geopolitical nightmares and these greedy companies won't recycle.
I agree with you but still like this car. There is a twin turbo six, which will be lighter, faster, more fuel efficient and more agile than the V8. Think modern day Buick GNX.
@@robertnicholls9917 I don’t mind the turbo six at all, the hurricane. I think it will be liked by car community if it’s tuneable, already got the turbos so it’s ready for a tune
The hemi is still in ram 1500 classic, so that’s good
Not much to fix when it is an electric motor and battery powered. I believe it is more software over the air updating will be the future. I know working on your own car is great but most people that buy new cars do not care nor have a clue how to fix the anything so a low to zero maintenance car is what most of the new generation want. I remember when every one was up in arms when everything went fuel injection it was the end of the world when no more carburetors. Then I had to live with all the hate from when automatic transmissions was the only option. Then you had all of the hate when we got airbags and had to have seat belts on at all times. Like anything else people hate change. But innovation is what has gotten us to the great rides of today and I am sure when you look back years later you might feel differently about the EVs. I mean most of everything we use is electric and the battery's will become lighter and smaller and I am sure will have a better range my god look at how far electronics in general have come.
@@DYIguy it will never scale up and be applicable to 100% of Americans in our life time
USA is very big, no company will foot the bill to install chargers in remote areas.
EV technology will not be applicable to semi trucks, the loads are too great, and the duration of charging and location of charging stations will cause serious logistical problems turning 12 hour haul to 24 hour haul, if at all possible.
Certain big cities do not have the capability to accommodate these vehicles like NYC. Less than 5% of new cars sold in NYC are electric
It’s too congested, and not enough space is available to allow multiple people to sit around and charge.
The batteries are economically nonsensical to recycle. They will end up in a landfill.
These EV vehicles are carelessly heavy, much heavier than trucks and SUV’s……meaning they wear out tires 30% faster meaning 30% more tire waste
Tesla’s have been ranked to have a NOX emissions score comparable to an SUV
It’s all just bull 💩
@@Tropicalfrooploops Sounds like when they told us that plastic was recyclable only to find out 90% of it cant be recycled only trashed in a land fill, burned, or dumped in the ocean . With tires they can be recycled into asphalt, but because Rubber to Rubber would basically never wear out like it does on normal asphalt or cement. You guessed it the Big Tire companies blocked that from becoming reality. It seems no matter what we do to make some type of environment improvements there is always some company trying to block it because of the bottom line.
All products improve over time. You can't expect perfection from the beginning
Still think our 71 looks better and prolly last longer. But do admit would look cool having a 2024 and a 71 siting next to each other in the garage
71 charger is nice but last longer? Is your 71 all original did you have to do work on it? I know 73 charger was terrible and 75 was a joke as far as reliability.
Never mind . Sound is on!
sometimes it takes a while for RUclips to fully process videos when they are uploaded. I often need to wait it out.
I'm curious to see how the gas-powered SixPack models will be priced compared to the Electric Daytona models. It'd be cool if they were priced the same. I'm really interested in a 2-Door R/T.
If that occurs, Dodge will fail faster than expected.
The gasoline powered models should be priced well below the EVs
not that it concerns me, but I'm curious if dodge/stallantis worked with Borla on the electronic exhaust since Borla is persuing that tech on other EVs....
It's likely to be a cottage industry
I didn’t realize the hp was split between the 2 drive trains. So if you put it in rear wheel drive you only 390hp?
Great video. Thanks for all this info. It's a very strange/interesting car. I wonder how much the gas version will weigh. Glad the Charger is back to being a two-door. I didn't know there was also going to be a 4-door variant, nor did I know it was a hatchback!
The gasoline versions will likely weigh in similarly to the current model.
I have never been so not excited for a new car. No part of me likes anything about this and I highly doubt I'll be alone in that view. Super heavy, slow for ev, and looks lifted. It's bad, very very bad. Ford can't even sell their evs and are wishing they didn't have them on lots. I hate to say it but I'd take a tesla over this any day. And that's about as exciting as nap time.
No sound
Can't wait to see how we can customize it, just like spinning isn't winning, loud don't make you fast.
I'm on board, but I have my gas cars also. I hope a base model Charger EV comes out with cloth seats, less power and without the exhaust sound. I want to trade my Bolt Ev and daily drive the Charger EV someday!
The Dodge enthusiast is NOT going to support this car.
The EV ENTHUSIAST is going to love this car!
is this john from two and a half men lol
Does anybody really believe that people are going to stand in line for an ev that will be north of 70k, riiiight!
They look like SUVs. Why so high in the air?
Let it drop some weight, then it could be a new Stealth mate.
Yes they got to get with the program?? Lol
Not 20in wheels lol.
i dont like that split in the led lights near the bumper it makes it look ugly compared to the concept that didnt that that
Grrat take!
"until those who aren't all charged up yet get with the program" That's some kool aid you're drinking bub. First and last time I watch Testdriventv.
Oh sweet cheeks, it's not KoolAid it's reality. You're either participating in change or fighting against it. Change happens regardless honey.
your reality and language explains why you are where you are.@@TestDrivenTV
Exactly
This will be the fourth major EV fail in history. It will be different this time they said 😆😆😆
What are the other three?
@@TestDrivenTV post ww1, Jimmie Carter agenda then 0bama green agenda. 0bama got lucky with Tesla who got billions selling carbon credits to survive. Fisker , several battery factories never even opened like Nissan TN $2.3 billion factory . It’s recent history u less your X Y
@TestDrivenTV Rivian, Hummer EV, Ford Lightning, Mach E. Pick any of them. They are all performing poorly in sales. The bubble burst and people are waking up that EVs are not the be all end all. They are fine for some people but the adopters will have you believe they are a one size fits all vehicle for EVERYONE. go live in a super cold climate and drive long distance and you'll see even the EVs with the "best" range fall on their face.
Not sure why everyone is crying about the size and weight. The original Charger was a large vehicle. Have you seen the specs on the 24 performance EV's from Porsche and Audi's. They are similar. And how can you say something is slow when it hasn't touched the track.
Let's have a real conversation when we see some quarter mile times.
The ET is in the 11s. When one talks about weight, it's about how it handles and feels not how fast it is. If you've driven a 6,000 lb car fast as it will go, it really isn't all that fun as something that weighs half as much. And it often tends to ride like a 1 ton pickup.
@@TestDrivenTV again... We are talking different technology vs gasoline engines. Plus the new performance EV vehicles are designed to handle the weight. It's Not an afterthought. Performance EV's are going to be heavy until better battery tech catches up.
The key is having an active suspension which will be available here. The best handling high performance EVs we've tested have air suspensions with variable dampers and spring rates. This allows for the suspension to be taut when need be and more relaxed other times. In the end though weight is subject to the laws of physics and on a road coarse or windy back road is the enemy regardless of how sophisticated the countermeasures are.
Fake exhaust sound….Fake muscle car …..
How many here want a faster Sewing 🧵 machine ?
That will be a nice ride once someone pulls that BS engine out and replaces it with a proper V8. As for the electric model, that’s just hilarious. If you think we’re going all electric in the next 10 years, well, that’s hilarious too
Keep laughing sweetheart
@@TestDrivenTV every time a new EV comes out I laugh. I laugh even harder when I see them stacked up at dealerships because nobody wants them. But you have fun with your battery operated car. To each hisnown
It's coming. Period. Stellantis already announced that by 2035 the majority of everything they offer except for full size heavy duty trucks will be EV along with almost every other automaker on the planet. The factory that builds their V8s will no longer be doing so and won't ever again. Other plants are being converted for EV production. Between that and the regulations that are phasing in over the next decade or so, gasoline powered vehicles won't be able to comply. So laugh all you want, but one of these days it won't be funny for you anymore. ;)
@@TestDrivenTV it’ll always be funny to me. I tow a lot and I need more than a few miles before looking for a nonexistent charging station. My brother bought a Tesla and sounded just like you. That lasted about six months before he unloaded it. EV’s have a long long long way to go before they are mainstream.
@@TestDrivenTV someday for sure. But not in ten years
No V6 or V8?
I’ll Pass!
Inline 6 better than V6. But yeah no V8.
Electric charger would be nice, but at 6000 lbs on only the 400v system is pretty bad. If it weighed 4500lbs like the tesla, that would be nice. They work against them self's. European people will be the EV Charger biggest buyers cause Americans are not going for it.
Not really a fan of the front of this, not menacing enough
Golly, i can't wait to charge my Charger with a charger. 🤮
No manual, no sale!
Nope. Don’t care. Too little too late. They got my $$$ for Hellcats 3 times. They turned out to be part of the decline of car culture. If I want an EV, I’d only consider a Tesla PLAID. That’ll smoke these Dodges, & a used PLAID will be cheaper too. 😊
Electric def won't be the default norm, thats hilarious. Nobody wants them for many reasons. And piss off with the get with the program bs. Thumbs way down on this vid. And they def arnt fast at almost 6000 lbs top speed of 134 😆
All its gonna take is one RUclips channel to like it and the rest will fallow like 🐑.
Garbage
