Eight years of Happiness to Dodge and now Sadness…….Stellantis ruins it!!!!

[CPRHDSRT]

Ya true but this feels a bit like a bad dream that we won't wake up from. I get the pressures (EPA CAFE) but an AWD hybrid with a V8 at the core was the only real shot in my mind. That's just me though. If they produce anything thing like that .... ya good luck with that.

Thought I was watching a Funeral procession when the reveal inched along thru out the crowd. Had they drug the Hellcat Ice car behind it that would have sealed the deal.

Nice try

I have to say that I don't see the commitment from Dodge for this EV shit. Just some rebodied challenger with a goofy exhaust. No facts, no figures and zero stats. All talk and nothing concrete.
ICE cars are never going to go away. Oil is a renewable energy resource. (laugh at this one).
Give it a couple more years.

It's a concept. Don't count your chickens yet.

Yeah, you can be sure many of the exterior & interior styling ques will not make it to the production version due to $$$$.

Fake trans shifts, exhaust noise + (strike 3 for me) panoramic roof is enough for a hard pass from me.
Ladle on it's an E machine + all new everything from the ground up from the likes of the Fiat/Alpha boys and it has as much chance of finding a home in my garage as the bidet getting a dinner invite !

It's all fake. Take another look at that car. It's fake.

Oh yeh per Tim K 14K orders for the Hornet😳. Guess the Camaro gang got excited😁

I'm sure it's just a cobbled up shell at this point, all show & no go. Probably trying to see what kind of buzz (har) it generates to determine if it's worth actually building. I'm sure they were hoping to stoke the 'hive buzz' but it's more like a lone, wayward gnat that's too small to even bother swatting ...................

Sure that you didn't order the all electric model?

They need cars to sell in 14 months. Something more than the Hornet.

Isn't this the same car?

The basic chassis, but not the (highly complex) drive train, interior bits, electronics etc.

Nothing new about this technology. Prius has been around how many years?

After spending time reading comments in videos and articles, sounds like a lot of people are pretty hyped for the EV charger.

I came so close 3-4 years ago to buying one. I had a done deal and the salesman was so stupid he killed the deal. I test drive a blue color one and really like it. Leave come back the next day and drive it again and another one a different color. I tell the sales guy I am Going to get lunch amd will be back shortly. Come back and the blue car I liked is gone. Ask the sales guy where is the car? He replies it’s in the back lot and I say why and he says had to put it back. I say go get it and he says why……I say have a good day. He did me a favor those things are junk.
