Hey TFl crew, just a friendly reminder that you need to turn HDR OFF on your iPhones when filming for KZbin. Otherwise you get the washed out look that we see in this video. (Also, the HDR setting tends to turn itself back on, so unfortunately you need to double check that it’s off before you start filming every time. Hopefully Apple fixes that in an update soon.)

The Electric Charger. The car no one asked for. This lines up perfectly with Stelantis' work on the Jeep brand and the cool looking but useless for off roading Rekon, and the slightly less useless 4XE wrangler. Again, this is Stellantis completely not understanding their target consumer. Frunk. Just enough room for a small gas generator... Maybe its the video, but the lines of this car are pretty sterile and bland. The roofline sort of reminds me of the Avenger. Even if it wasn't electric, I'm not sure I could get excited about it. It just doesn't look the part. No, the bee does not belong on any electric car. It's a travesty of marketing. From a fleet mileage perspective, this car makes sense. However, They could have easily made some other small fuel efficient cars (not the hornet or the dart) or other battery powered car and kept at leat the i6 as a powerplant to keep their overall numbers compliant. And don't preach the pending doom of 2035 and all electric cars. It isn't going to happen and everyone with half a brain knows it. And OMG, what an effing pig. nearly 6k pounds? Assuming the large percentage of this is the battery needed to move it as quickly as they want to make it a cool 'muscle' car. What a waste of materials and environment. MSRP? I'm going guess starting north of $65k for a base model.

​@Starry_Dupree a plaid is under 4800lbs and it has 1000hp. All the teslas are lighter. slso no they don't have an issue with weight for the power they have at all. This electric dodge will have a much worse power to Weight. An 11.5 quarter mile is is an entry level quarter mile. That's what a tesla p85D ran in the quarter mile back in 2015........a model 3 performance is faster with 400+hp and under 4000lbs. This electric dodge running 11.5 at 5800 lbs is due to the weight because it has the power to do better but a model 3 beats it with 200 less horsepower, so the weight for the dodge is definitely an issue. To be fair tho, the styling on the dodge is better than a model 3 performance but with a multi gear transmission and noise maker and big breaks beefy suspension and big tires and bigger body dimensions explains why this dodge is so heavy.

[@solocamo3654]

AWD - check No V8 - check No fun sounds - check Ugly as hell - check Hatchback - check Barely more range than older V8s now with extremely long charge times - check Congrats, you've made exactly what anyone who wanted a V8 Muscle car platform didn't want.

[@MrJeffyb69]

GARBAGE!!! NO muscle car is "Electric"! I don't care if it is quicker, a "muscle car" uses a good ole fashioned internal combustion engine, preferably a V8! This is a woke version of a classic and it will fail 😞

[@NOXStellans]

Remember those early cars with a taxidermied horse mounted on the front?

[@Blocme1shameonyoublocme2shameo]

I would think you can’t buy one of these and store it thinking it will be a collectors one day for the future and expect the battery to still be good after 10-20 years even keeping it on a trickle charge . A battery is a battery and after so many years they’re no more good so what’s the worth of it in the future? It’s only worth something in the present while you use it

[@caseytbss]

You don’t Trickle charge a EV🤦‍♂️. Who cares about putting one away for collectors item? Also it will be just fine if you store it charged up and charge it every couple months. I have 20 year old lithium drill batteries that still work.

[@Mr_Bones.]

It’s difficult to make this car a collector’s item in the future when no one wants it in the present. The vast majority of comments are clowning on this car with fake exhaust sounds and fake transmission. Like Tony said, this is a car without dignity made by people with no pride.

[@ScrillaTMU]

Max speed, 133 mph???? Lmaoooooo

[@ssoffshore5111]

As the owner of a gen 2 Viper GTS, this makes me want to curl up in a corner and 🤮! The brand has lost its way completely. The previous gen fatcat was way over weight, but this one at 5800 lbs, WTF!?!? Everything about this next gen misses the mark. Way too heavy, it will eat tires and handle like a boat, requires a giant battery that will also be a PITA to continuously charge (and take forever at that), and thanks to all these inefficiencies, the range is still crap. And fake engine noises through a speaker? 4" wheel gaps? And nothing exciting about a 4500 lb boat with a V6 either! This thing will be a colossal belly flop, 100% DOA, ZERO chance this sells!!!

[@smavtmb2196]

The exterior looks a bit boring. Not exciting to look at. I know its a Charger but wish the 2 doors had a proper fastback roofline instead of looking almost the same the 4 door sedan. 5800lbs WTF?Thats obsurd. They weigh as much as a SUV, and probably corner like one. I don't want a tank. I want a muscle car. One that doesn't just go fast in a straight line. Range is terrible considering people will clearly drive them hard. As it supposedly a muscle car. Cars are getting too heavy. Especially EV'S. Clearly a big reason for the extra weight is due to being electric and all wheel drive. It be nice if buyers have the option to put all the power to rear wheels only when they want. 4.7 sec's 0-60 seems pretty fast its obsurd weight, but only 0.2 sec's faster than a 2024 EcoBoost turbo 4 cylinder Mustang. A stock 2024 Mustang GT 5.0L runs 0-60 in 4.3 seconds.

[@LionheartLivin]

I have literally never seen copium this intense

[@rovert97]

why is there a check engine light if there is no "engine"

[@KillteeLenny]

Bc some have engines lol

[@danny200mph5]

5800lbs is outrageous. The Kia EV6 GT and Hyundai Ioniq 5 N are both 1000lbs lighter than this and have awd. What is Dodge doing to control weight?

[@GTR003121]

@Benzley722 His point still stands, 5800 lbs is batshit

[@DJ-ve5lr]

Very nice looking car!!!!. Buuuuuuuttt....well i just feel bad for these automakers being forced to make these cuz no one will buy them.....including me. Can anyone guess why?

[@sammiches6859]

Dodge can't have always been the "house of muscle" if they had a larger gap in muscle cars than GM. The only "always" contender is Ford, who's yet again, the only one making a muscle car. It sucks, it really does, but Chrysler ran the brand into the ground, and now it's getting passed between various Euro brands like a Thai hooker. Dodge is dead without V8s. Anyone willing to pay ridiculous MOPAR prices are going to want a decent sounding Hemi.

[@blakemarchand6650]

What a bummer. Makes me sad seeing a car like this be full electric really shows me where we’re headed and I don’t like it

[@ShenmueAtheist]

I wonder if these will be even better at taking out bystanders at intersection takeovers than the previous gen.

[@rickd4900]

No running from Police in these 😂

[@thealgorithmisbroken]

Absolutely. Especially with all the added weight of the battery.

[@RobertCarrizal]

where was engine?

[@843MudMafia.]

Next year it a inline6

[@geraldsmith7240]

The End Of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep. If It’s Not Broken, Why Break It? It’s A Sad Day For Whatever They’re Thinking.🐌🐌🐌

[@beachside1]

I say check out the difference cost of insurance for an EV vs ICE. EV is much higher. Theres no replacement for cubic displacement. Ill never give up my 1970 Chevelle

[@christhomas9842]

You’re not mentioning the fact that people won’t be able to add horsepower like you can a gas engine car.

[@johncs154]

Not in the same way but yes they will be able to add power, that is the purpose of the "stages"

[@comicrandomness3289]

​@@johncs154that's how they sell it. You can "add" horsepower. No you can't.

[@johncs154]

@@comicrandomness3289 it’s a modular platform meaning you can upgrade the components.. yes you can make it faster..

[@brudel001]

I mean the overall design is pretty cool BUT it lacks the stance - I mean the gap between the tire and wheel arch is way too big and the fact that it doesn't have wide wheel arches makes it look weak.

[@tonylarosa1415]

Way to go, Dodge 😢 It totally sucks 🫏

[@LedoGarage401]

Stop associating muscle to EV that's not muscle . That's just future electric crap. Muscle will and always be a bad v6 or real bad v8 that rumbles and makes noises and makes you feel things . These aren't it point blank . Stop encouraging muscle car brands to do these things. Don't buy them and they'll stop acting stupid . I wouldn't even be excited to film this crap video. What crap here people

[@timsquire9620]

Everyone knows there's no such thing as Santa Claus.The Easter Bunny or a good e.V. And the Turbo charged V6 will be running spooled all the time. So the life expectancy of that engine will be shit

[@markymark959]

And how much to replace the batteries when they wear out?

[@jimcabezola3051]

Kudos on being the first long-format video on this car that I've ever seen. What a car!

[@shredofmalarchi]

I really love this vehicle. Super cool hatch on the back quietly brings it to the future where sedan trunks are dead! I really want to feel the all wheel torque on launch!

[@mwc6849]

Who cares? EV’s suck

[@johnchaney1713]

EV….sucks. What a joke.

[@jessitaylor4170]

Not interested in EV.

[@moparlifestyle5102]

So they’re gonna just kill the challenger?

[@vasopel]

maybe for some years...

[@Starry_Dupree]

Hopefully they don’t bring it back as a cross over suv hybrid like they did the mustang 😂

[@vasopel]

@@Starry_Dupree let's hope...

[@tomthomas9910]

Challenger looks better than the charger" and had 2 doors, camaro mustang challenger, looked like reminiscent muscle cars but the charger , funky " glad I had a real 68 SE" in the mid 80"s cars were less than 20.000$ built. if I was to spend loot" it would be resto mod charger modern amenities , 572 under the hood 800hp simple to work on " no computer management garbage just raw old school power, and would get more attention that that dyson

[@tomthomas9910]

Back in the day traction control was your right foot

[@mcatlow8]

So if a car that is beloved becomes controversial then someone is doing something wrong.

[@jay.mostacho2414]

If efficiency isn’t the point for the flagship model, keep the freakin V8! The oxymorons and headspins Dodge is making in their talking points has me crosseyed like Steve Buscemi in Mr Deeds…

[@ZondaF355]

This is such a joke. Dont buy this crap people. How can you call yourself a car person and drive a glorified golf cart that makes no noise. A sad day
