New stickers for Challenger?

(ok, I’ll see myself out….)

 

Same can be said for Jeep,Ram etc.

 

Maybe they'll announce that they've ran out of ideas for black wheels and actually introduce some with silver or aluminum as the primary color.

 

I'm calling it now. The long awaited Muscle Cycle.

 

Something new from Dodge is coming on July 8, but it's still a mystery

So apparently there is something being announced, but there isn't a hint of what this could be. My guess would be the Hornet, but anything is possible.

Hybrid hellcat

 

That's my birthday !

 

Since it is a special day for you, you had better hope your birthday will not be remembered as "ANOTHER" sticker package day.

 

“Everybody knows electrification is coming, we’ll reinvent the muscle car as far as Dodge is concerned,” Matt McAlear, head of Dodge Sales Operations told MC&T. “I’m extremely excited about where the future is going, but right now everybody is enjoying ‘the bachelor party.’ This is the last hurrah.”

I'm assuming with those statements, this is some kind of special addition model. Although, they could surprise us with a concept.

 

I've heard this story for so many years it's not funny. The bar is so low.

 

Well i hope its an all wheel drive Hellcat powered car either Challenger or Charger.

Or if they were real smart they would say Ram is going to be a Dodge again.

I think Charger is a good name for a electric car.

 

You really think all the news about the current landscape with BEVs and electrification and the reveal will be an AWD hellcat? For real?

Its going to be something battery powered or electrified...

 

I'm curious what this announcement is going to be.

 

Well we haven't seen any new prototypes on the road so I'm leaning heavily to a new special edition of a Charger/Challenger.

 

A Charger R/Te PHEV with same power train as Wrangler 4xe.

 

Brampton only got 10 million or something to hold it over until 2024, its a sticker or wheel package. OR its something unrelated to the LX cars and is that rumored Stellantis mash up CUV.

 

8th July is Stellantis' EV Day.

 

I'm predicting it won't be this.

 

It looks like that Chrysler they showed except the Chrysler didn't have the flashy red and black paint.

 

Hornet?

Electrified Charger/Challenger? Electrified Durango?

Mild hybrid Pentastar & Hemi from Ram?

Remember, this is going to be a "teaser" on July 8 with a reveal later. So, we will not know everything.

Don't we have that already? We've been selling eTorque for years.

Last time this happened, we got the Portal which was so exciting, and then began the constant 3 years away stuff started happening again.

Not seeing any prototypes means we're at least 5 yrs away.

Speaking of the Portal, have you seen what is coming from VW and others? They look like the Portal with the intent for autonomous driving. This is what happens when a company sits on its hands for years after having a decent idea.

 

I'll be optimistic and predict it's the crossover, aka "Hornet", and therefore an entirely new model for Dodge. Let's hope so.

 

I predict a hornet with the 2.4

 

The dinos are still surprisingly competitive and dominate their small field.
Put in EV tech and they'll do fine. Everything can be upgraded. I'd have liked that neat Maserati twist on the front suspension but ...

I believe I mentioned it before, but for the Charger, the only real "problem" with the architecture is the "fastback" style that hurts the rear space. The 300 does not have nearly as much of an issue with that because it is a more boxy designed rear. They are suprisingly well sized vehicles for what they are. Small enough to be nimble, big enough to carry 4 quite comfortable.

If they are revealing a redesign at the end of the year, my hope would be for a flatter rear with a hatch style trunk (mixing the style of the 68-70s with the added utility the hatch rear brings), but that is definitely wishful thinking

The Durango is our family hauler, but the (2013) Charger is the adult driver. I have a feeling it will be staying with us a while longer too (in spite of some failing electronics components).

 

EV day suggests an EV. Tim K implied a Charger. I'm going to guess a high-power, real-hybrid Charger. It might be a Charger EV due in 2023 or some such. Is Stell. able to do a serious high-po BEV? I don't know; I was surprised by the Pacifica PHEV. DaimlerChrysler and then Fiat Chrysler were developing and testing BEVs continuously, just not building any given lack of demand and perhaps not-ready-yet. Maybe they're reached the point of actually selling one. Maybe they licensed technology from BYD or Nio; who knows? Nio was, last I heard, in financial trouble. I don't think BYD has linked up to a western or Japanese automaker yet, but I could be wrong. (BYD is the world's most prolific maker of electric buses.)

 

Daimler Chrysler did have the Aspen Hybrid way back when they should have kept offering hybrid versions of their vehicles, like Ford & GM did.

I do not think Tim K mentioned a product in this last interview. He just said a product tease, which means we will get nothing firm to stand on.

Since Tim K has been talking about the end of the V8 and electrification performance since January, it may be that they will "tease" an EV Charger to go up against Tesla Model S Plaid.

They are keeping a good lid on it so far.

Maybe this is coming back?

2009 Chrysler 200C Concept Car and Possible Production Cars

2009 Chrysler 200C Concept Car and Possible Production Cars The electric Chrysler 200C (not to be confused with the C200) has an exciting look which retains much of the 300's feel, while modernizing it and giving it a much more aerodynamic-looking shape; reportedly, it looks like the Chrysler...

I think this announcement will have something to do with an EV.. couple other posts kinda point in that direction

 

Its a Event to showcase Stellantis EV future and Dodge is the brand that will be presenting something..


If they showcase a new full EV Please call it STEALTH!!

 

Don't do that to these wonderful cars....my son's 45k mile 92 stealth rt/tt

 

Finally. The fruition of the ENVI project.

 

Other than the Portal concept, were there any other plans to do a SWB vehicle off the Pacifica? Chrysler or Dodge could really use a mid-size Journey replacement, or two!

 

The Journey replacement in the EU (Fiat Freemont) is the 3-row Compass named Jeep Commander.
