      At least this one will be hard to steal :/
      I sold my scatpack for nearly what I paid for it back during Covid after putting 50k miles on it and that MF literally got stolen from the dealer 2 days later. Cops were at my house asking questions and I had to show them security cam footage of me pulling in my driveway the night it was stolen (2 hours away in another state so the footage proved I couldn't have been there when it got snatched)

      it's the lies of Liberalism that an EV is "green' or "eco friendly" but is really a lie. There is nothing "green" or "eco friendly" in an EV, solar power or wind power when you look at the materials used to make it or the process of making it and or the toxicity of the materials to recycle them and or the short life before they need replacing.

      This thing offends musclecar enthusiasts because it’s pretending to be something it isn’t; it’s inauthentic. Performance EV enthusiasts are offended by this thing because it’s trying very hard to be an ICE musclecar (which is not the experience persons seeking performance EV’s are looking for at all), so also inauthentic.)
      The noise maker seems to turn off both camps- muscle cars need to make real noise, and EV’s shouldn’t be making any noise except for electrical hums if you’re really leaning on one. By building a car that has to be BOTH EV, or ICE, they’ve built a horribly compromised version of both. It’s WAY too heavy simply because it has to do both, and isn’t really a good EV simply from space utilization (that front trunk is laughably tiny) all the way thru efficiency(another important metric EV customers look at). It needed to be built as either a ground-up ICE vehicle, or a ground-up EV, leveraging the advantages of either platform. Who is this car for??? Head scratcher for sure.
      I’ll eat my words if Dodge pulls a Tesla Model Y and starts selling a butt-load of Charger Daytonas, but I really think Hell would freeze over first..

      ​@@CodyDavis91 trust me that won't happen in our lifetime. Do you understand how much work it would take to upgrade the grid to handle so many electric vehicles? Imagine a place like LA that already has rolling blackouts, our current system doesn't have the capability to support so many cars. Also trucks won't go electric because they wouldn't have enough range to drive from one charging station to the next. Anyone that lives in a remote area is still going to use gas. Anyone that tows anything is still going to use gas. There's plenty of people that won't want to switch over also.

      Me either, but someone is going to buy it. But they might take a loss like ford did with the f150 lightning. This EV is barely faster than a charger or challenger with the seats removed, is too slow to compete with the model 3, and the styling isn't that revolutionary that they can sell it on how it looks and refreshed interior in my opinion. So, I don't see a market for it unfortunately. Why spend that much money on an EV just for the sake of brand loyalty and gimmicks. And I own a previous gen Scat pack. I think the six pack will sell if they can keep them under 50 Grand. But these EV's might sell like hot cakes, who knows lol....

      Ford and GM have much more diverse lineups than stellantis… ford has hybrids, PHEVs, and EVs, GM has 3-cylinders and EVs, and I think both ford and GM move more (eco friendly-ish) product than stellantis. Stellantis has no EVs but the fiat 500e, which is a niche car. Their PHEVs are unproven and uncompetitive vs the rest of the market. What small cars does stellantis have?

      That kills me man, totally agree... glorified golf cart... and this one looks really quirky and buggy from my perspective. Sad but $80K is ALOT of Damn money!! You can get a late model mustang GT low mileage for less than half!! What are they thinking? Are they trying to destroy Dodge purposely? I make well over six figures and I would NEVER pay that much for a car! The car I drive now is the most expensive car I've ever owned in almost 40 years of driving at around 44K after taxes tag and title and it took me a few months of kicking tires before I pulled the trigger. Who can afford it? I honestly don't get it? That's one of the reasons I decided not to get another full sized truck, the prices are ridiculous! Found a 21' SS 1LE with 3500mi on it, basically New and paid HALF of the price of this car. WOW, I hate to see dodge mess themselves up with this one. I'll bet the value of the used Hellcat goes up.

    Aside from the fake sound and the straps for the hood release and seats, I would definitely own this.

    Id definitely buy this, but i would buy the Hurricane powered one. Not that i hate electric, i just dont believe its feasible yet. Especially if you're not a homeowner.
    Hurricane has plenty of power for a normal person. 550hp is enough for me.

    they should have given it a new name, start a new line up. Calling this a charger is so disrespectful and an insult to the legacy

      Yea just like Ford using the Mustang name on a Crossover, and Chevrolet using the Silverado name on what should have been called the AValanche

    I’ve seen the test mule driving around and my opinion is unchanged with this. I prefer the previous gen interior, exterior, and powertrains

    Well as someone from a country who doesn't get plenty of v8s. I think they have done a great job by adhering to the regulations and giving it a sound that sounds better than all that silent evs

    60k for a base base model is crazyyyyyy, thats not including whatever delivery fees & markups, by then the base rt will be easily over70k maybe 80k with an optioned out rt, which probably oushes the scatpack close to if not over 6 figures. no one buyin this pos except tech bros & influencers💀 they completely killed their usual buyerbase
