    Abarth in Brazil Starts With SUV Debut

    Didnt have to, I own an abarth, I expected more power, not less from "the new one" that weighs 500lbs more. Weak.

    Swinger coming back?

    Ralph has just been calling it the Dodge Banshee so that's probably what it'll end up being called. I wouldn't be surprised if they made Charger its own sub brand at this point. A sedan, a retro coupe a lifted CUV etc. Swinger would be better used on a d-segment sized car or a suv between...

    Abarth in Brazil Starts With SUV Debut

    Better than the EV 500 abarth that has less power (less everything) than the gas version , all they did was slap an abarth badge on the 500e :poop:

    Chrysler Group Heads To “The Golden State” For The 2022 LA Auto Show!

    Its the same grey car they showed in Detroit, they painted it red for SEMA and added 4 drag radial and wheels (many reports it was freshly painted) and then just swapped out the wheels for LA. Nothing else is different the lights are just off at LA auto show.

    Chrysler Group Heads To “The Golden State” For The 2022 LA Auto Show!

    Odd, I've never seen the 9 sec Teslas need a flat bed to get home. We must hang out at different tracks

    Chrysler Group Heads To “The Golden State” For The 2022 LA Auto Show!

    You mean keep building tire spinning V8's that get eaten alive by AWD EV's? Somehow I dont think most people will mind driving to the track, running 8's without lifting a finger and then driving home, because that's where they are going.

    I am hearing they are rethinking the end of the V8 for Charger/Challenger

    I think they are going to use the banshee as the halo car and they're treating it like they use to treat the viper, in 800 volt stage 2 (or 3) trim it'll be an 8 second rocket ship. They could have made a hellcat tire fryer version, but it would be fodder for any performance AWD EV and I highly...

    I am hearing they are rethinking the end of the V8 for Charger/Challenger

    True but I firmly believe that anyone who wants/wanted a charger or challenger already has or had one. The final edition cars were all just sticker package bs anyways

    Swinger coming back?

    I know about the "special" edition car but its recently been trademarked and no other "special" edition name was.

    I am hearing they are rethinking the end of the V8 for Charger/Challenger

    Steve Magnante, who works pretty close to Chrysler from time to time says the hemi isn't going away and that MT was correct. Perhaps the Banshee line will be EV but the next gen Charger / Challenger will be traditional.

    I am hearing they are rethinking the end of the V8 for Charger/Challenger

    I understand the top model being EV AWD to sack the Tesla plaid, but to eliminate the V8 in all other trims is just dumb. And sure, the TT6's make a bit more power than the 5.7 and 6.4 but they also have a million more sensors and other breakage points that can have a serious hamper on...

    Carlos Keynote speech at Paris Autoshow

    Order, price and sales projections. At $29,900 even I am interested in it. That thing is going to be a massive hit and they know it. Its a dealer lot stuffer, high seller, like Dodges use to be. $5000+ cash on the hood included. Carlos see's it as another Nissan Rogue

    Carlos Keynote speech at Paris Autoshow

    Never happen, they have to pay the bills and be robbed to keep the Euro stuff afloat. Did you see the news today how Alfa is "a success and fine for the next 10 years". 100% thanks to this I am awaiting Dodge versions of the Giulia and Stelvio as I type!

    Stop lying - Warren Truck shutdown is not chip related

    A 12 yr old could have made the cherokee decision. I was talking about these gems

    Stop lying - Warren Truck shutdown is not chip related

    Was he the one that put CVT's in everything while also plummeting their quality from Honda level to somewhere around Mitsubishi? Was he also the one that gave a dealership license to anyone that asked for one? Nissan is still in serious trouble from decisions made back then and they still may...

    Stop lying - Warren Truck shutdown is not chip related

    The French know nothing about the US auto industry, they tried to sell Renaults here that fell apart before 25,000 miles and put square headlights in Jeeps. If they are making the high up decisions then we are in trouble. Killing the V8 charger/challenger would be so typical of them

    Stop lying - Warren Truck shutdown is not chip related

    Wagoneer shift just got cut too..lol T IS coming back, will be made public late November and he will win. How? With 4 words "I already did it" economy, illegal immigration, jobs, posperity, housing - campaign will be run on out of control inflation. Biden will not run again, too old and did...

    Dodge is lying - there is a path forward for the V8

    V8's (IMO) had a better future when they were smaller and cars/suvs/trucks were lighter. My 4.7L 4th gen 4runner gets the same fuel mileage as the 4.0L only 5th gens because they are 500lbs heavier. And its old! Imagine that engine with modern updates, an 8-speed transmission, 4x4 disconnect...

    BREAKING: Windsor Will Begin Building A New Electrified Vehicle In 2024:

    Huh? GT500's runs mid to low 10's, Mach E runs high 12's. GT 500 would slaughter it even worse on a road course. The charger banshee will most likely run very high 8's and will be north of 100K, potentially even north of 120K. Dont shoot the messenger, once the Italians caught onto what the...

    BREAKING: Windsor Will Begin Building A New Electrified Vehicle In 2024:

    Steve Magnante keeps hinting that the hemi isn't dead and will still be around by 2030 (in the fun cars, not just trucks) and beyond. He does work pretty close to Chrysler so I guess we will see.
