Came here from the Hyundai RN24 video and I find it funny how different the comments on that video are from the comments on this one. I personally don't care if the car is electric, as long as it's a good car and fun to drive. However, I absolutely hate the fact that they put all the effort into making fake noises using speakers, instead of unleashing the whine of the electric motor, almost as if they're afraid of their own community. Imagine what kind of sound we could've gotten if engineers put in the same effort for sound design in EVs as was put into the Lexus LFA.
NOPE! It's TOTALLY different thing and what all the EV makers have missed so far (although BMW is adding a type of sound). From a safety aspect alone it's a great idea, but it gives feedback to the driver which has been missing from EV's. This will change everything and soon they will all be doing it.
I don't know if you have been paying attention. Mopar Jesus is back and Ram and Dodge are going to be adding V-8s throughout the line ups . Stellantis will be profitable soon.
they buy things off of copart and fix them up for cheaper or they just buy used but not from a dealership because even though it's a risk you'll find better deals on craigslist or facebook marketplace than at a dealership these days
With the plethora of modern Hemi's offered till at least 2023; going back to the original 426 would be a big downgrade. As it stands; almost any 2008-23 Challenger/Charger with an Eight bigger than the 5.7L, would demolish probably any box stock muscle cars from 1969-70, in at least top speed.
The big elephant in the room is this car is slower than its main competitors by a lot while being substantially more expensive, specifically the Model 3 Performance.
@@chrisvogel4981 outperforms? Maybe in a straight line. On a track (for example nordschleife) a 2000hp Rimac is still significantly slower than a 500hp GT3RS. I‘m not even here to discuss EV vs ICE though. I recently drove my father‘s Taycan and it‘s the most amazing and smooth thing for daily driving. But I‘d never in a million years consider taking it out of the garage on a sunny sunday just for the pleasure of it. There‘s literally zero emotion and zero reason to drive it for anything other than getting from a to b. This charger unfortunately is aimed at a target group that likes cars, not as a means of transport but simply because they like cars. That‘s why almost nobody will buy it. They don‘t look for the sterile and smooth driving experience and let‘s face it, the immediate torque is not more than a party trick that you show your friends who have never been in an EV but don‘t actually do yourself because there is zero reason to do so after you‘ve experienced it 3 times.

It's brilliant. An electric hatchback muscle car. It will get better. Normally, I would say the exhaust soundtrack is dumb, but I think it's fitting in this car.
@@DailyBasiccfantastic sounding* don't go acting like all Charger owners have cars that sound like they do off the lot because I've heard some nice sounds from modern Chargers all depends on the exhaust you throw on it
That exhaust speaker noise is the most embarrassing thing I’ve ever seen and heard. Stellantis heading straight to bankruptcy with all their latest releases…
@@TakuroSpirit77 Does Hyundai make muscle cars? Weird comment. People been piping in sounds in the cabin for years on a lot of ICE cars and it's been a constant complaint for years now. You been living under a rock or something? Also..fun fact, up until now, you didn't have to pipe sounds into the cabin of the Dodge cars because they naturally sounded great and didn't need it. Again, weird take.
It's kind of like the 'soy bacon' of muscle cars. You buy one just because you like the flavor and don't give a crap about what other people think. But it ain't bacon.
Just remember, Dodge are lying through their teeth when they said you can do a hemi swap. The engine does not fit, you'd have to rebuild almost the whole front just so it would fit.
The hemi fits in the hurricane version which does in fact have a who different front end, the hurricane engine is also swappable back and forth with the hemi in the wagoneers where they share the same mounts
@Goblemeistervideos so what exactly is wrong with the fake noises? A muscle car is about fun, no? If the noise it makes is fun, why whine about it coming from speakers not an engine? Also, I assume this is one of those cars you need to hear with your own ears to figure out whether or not the sound is good. I'm all for proper sports/muscle cars, but this could be a fun gimmick to use when you want to hear some engine rumbling.
It's a bit different imo. Jaguar was dying and a strong rebranding could be one way to save it; providing the new vehicles would be more appealing (or no rebrand at all, just make the existing line up more appealing i.e. more reliable, which was never Jag's strongest suit). Stellantis is *actively* killing the brands it bears for no absolute reason at all. People were still perfectly happy with the cars FCA and PSA were making, but for some reason they wanted a more massive merger under a truly shtty management that is Stellantis.
I saw the design and instantly wanted more. It was good that Tom said it is an electric car because I managed to stop watching this video in first 5 seconds. Thank you Tom Ford for not wasting my morning
It's looks horrible to me. That front end doesn't make any sense. It looks like it should have 4 doors but doesn't, cause that's coming later, but using the same body... This is a disaster for Dodge... Sucks that I have one, wish I didn't.
Don`t know what Dodge were thinking but their fake sound mechanism for the exhaust turns out to be more amusing to me rather than it`s cool, I mean why fake something if it doesn`t naturally have it, make it as it is!
they're using it as a marketing scheme because many people hate electric cars for the lack of engine sounds and they think the answer is piped in audio of a hemi which is downright disgusting because it doesn't change the fact that the car has no soul without the real thing under the hood
its all meant to take more money from people ....even in France , the New Renault electric shitty cars are around 30K , heavier & not so practical . I keep my old Renault with 133 HP from 2009 ! Its sound is not replacable by any Electric silent engines + its complications
@BlueHopi144 I used to have a Clio 182 that was fantastic. I do like the look of the new Renault 5 but don't get why its got 500bhp, or that its electric.
I found out there will be an ICE version with the twin-turbocharged 3.0L inline-6 Hurricane engine in 2025. Dodge is doing the same strategy as Maserati did with the new-gen GranTurismo by launching the EV version first, then followed by the ICE version some time later.
And, just like Maserati, everyone will buy the ICE version while the EV version exists to appease politicians. Still, I prefer that to a high-maintenance hybrid with a significantly more complicated powertrain.
To be honest, making an electric and a combustion version of a sports car is kinda a smart marketing strategy. The woke mask-wearers will like it, and same with us car guys.
I mean, atleast one positive is this gen finally looks the closest to the og Charger, since it's FINALLY a coupe again!... And that's where all the comparison suddenly stops to a screeching hault. 😏
The new Charger has proven to be very divisive, and from other journalists, they claim that the drive modes seem to be calibrated out of whack, where the car feels faster in auto rather than track or sport. Which is strange to say the least. But Tom, if you are reading this, I wanted to give a shout out to your review of the Challenger back in 2009, in the Fifth Gear days, and how enthusiastic you were about the car. I was youngin at the time, but I found that review so entertaining, any who, I guess the future is now!
Part of the thrill and adrenaline of racing is sound. When u hear someone row through all 6 gears in big block v8 and u realize they are doing 160+ that is where sound plays a huge factor…
@@chrisalexandersb1748 I actually think it's amazing how this makes a Challenger look outdated and even clumsy, a car wish was a masterful draw by itself. The Tesla on the other hand? Looks like it was designed by an 8bit AI. I honestly can't even imagine a more uncreative effort.
The fact that everything is just electronic is the part that makes me want to stay far away. I don't want a computer on wheels, I want a reliable machine.
They should've put all the 700hp through the rear wheels. It would at least feel a little bit muscle carish then. This is just any other fast ev with a different body
I love how he says it doesnt really drive like a dodge because its, floppy, vague, just fast in a straight line, and falls apart at the limit. Sounds like every DOdge product from the last 70 years
I believe if they can make it and not fail. The version that will establish itself as a true EM (electric muscle) will be the 2nd or 3rd gen. This gen seems to be trying to find its identity. Frankly, there are just far better ev's on the market for the price point this one is currently sitting at.
There will be an ICE version next year, but not the V8. We'll get a twin-turbo inline-6 instead. The old Charger don't have two-door version because of the Challenger.
Who’s the customer for this? Absolutly know one. This has to be the best example yet of the Marketing department leading the decision making process when in reality they haven’t got a clue
An absolutely pathetic shitbox with an identity crisis, that can just be designed like this if the company making it has head problems too. Sales will be an absolute disaster.
Ok so what I REALLY think will make people happy is a Plymouth Superbird EV with a towel rack spoiler and stripped down for way higher performance. That's a wild man's EV
@@indonesiansasquatch4926 Yes they are small. They look buried under the wings of the car. And if the wheels are still 22", it means that the car is too tall, so it's a muscle 4wd EV car with well hidden SUV features. And fake sound.

I love how he says it doesnt really drive like a dodge because its, floppy, vague, just fast in a straight line, and falls apart at the limit. Sounds like every DOdge product from the last 70 years
Lame.
They nailed the looks.
It honestly even sounds good, at least in the video it does.
It will get better guys ,Tim Kuniskis is back..
I believe if they can make it and not fail. The version that will establish itself as a true EM (electric muscle) will be the 2nd or 3rd gen. This gen seems to be trying to find its identity. Frankly, there are just far better ev's on the market for the price point this one is currently sitting at.
ITS BLOODY BRILLIANT
I like how he describes it as " not fully rebellious ". That's very fitting.
if only it came with a prober v8 engine it would be a cool car such a shame they didnt make a 2 door version of the old charger
There will be an ICE version next year, but not the V8. We'll get a twin-turbo inline-6 instead.
The old Charger don't have two-door version because of the Challenger.
@@FAT8893 🤮
Annddd this is how Dodge goes broke and into receivership!
It looks like a GTA rendition of a Dodge charger
The speaker exhaust is hilarious 😂😂
Need a v8
Good luck with the resale on that!
It's really hard to watch this video while vomiting furiously.
Who’s the customer for this? Absolutly know one. This has to be the best example yet of the Marketing department leading the decision making process when in reality they haven’t got a clue
Stop forcing those electric cars on us!
0:50 "or can you?" Gave me vsauce vibes
My Washing Machine makes better sound than this
Honestly, the car isnt that bad its just the hype. Same with the G80 and G82 M3 and M4. We hated them at first, now we love em
It’s awful
I wonder how their new Hellcat and Red-eye would turn out.
An absolutely pathetic shitbox with an identity crisis, that can just be designed like this if the company making it has head problems too. Sales will be an absolute disaster.
They should put all battery at front, 2 motor rear with 4 speed manual transmission mode. What they do now is another Tesla copy.
@@GF-mf7ml no, they don´t need all that transmission bullshit with an EV. They should build a real ICE muscle car or a real EV.
Ok so what I REALLY think will make people happy is a Plymouth Superbird EV with a towel rack spoiler and stripped down for way higher performance. That's a wild man's EV
How you tell stories is amazing!
god it’s so ugly, why are the wheels so small
I agree with you it's so ugly and the wheels looks so small 😂😂😂
They're attempting to "de-hood" their image I think. Not everything needs pimp my ride 22s
the wheels are "small"? you must be american. Also, putting massive 22"s look like you're about to do a drive-by, they dont fit muscle cars.
@@indonesiansasquatch4926 Yes they are small. They look buried under the wings of the car.
And if the wheels are still 22", it means that the car is too tall, so it's a muscle 4wd EV car with well hidden SUV features. And fake sound.
Don't know what you're looking at but the exterior appearance is the one thing they got right.
Bumble Bee just found his new disguise, ''Autobots, roll out !!''
The used market will be $15K - clip it and ship it.
"car people" are not the main buyers of cars, and listening to what you say, this is perfectly pitched at real car buyers.
