Hell you know how they supported the people who bought their products with pride. I posted this before and will repeat it, Chrysler died when Daimer took it over, and Fiat bought a more dismal line to the market. All Dodge is for Stellantis is just a profit marketing the cars to sell to anyone who wants speed but won't support them after a sale. You remember what it was like, I sure do and it is sad to think that people today expect more from a company that is just there to sell a car with no need to respect the people who used to believe in the company.

But I think this is the most shameful and ridiculous moment in Mopar history...I believe that not even the late 70s during the crisis and the release of the K-Cars, Mopar enthusiasts were so upset like right now. Seen this EV trash called a Charger, carrying all Mopar names from the past, seen what Ford is doing with the Mustang and GM with the new Corvette, as a Mopar guy, I feel this is humiliating. I would prefer that they kept the old platform unchanged. I live in Brazil, and seeing Fiats, Citroëns and Peugeots with Mopar decals, is just a shame.

This car is the Equivalent to that isle in autozone with all the fake carbon fiber Accents' neon underglow, and chrome skull shifter knobs. 🤢🤮 the second they said it was a EV i didnt like it. But adding fake engine noise, Embarrassing.

yeah, Tony, it's a total shock that at this time in history, when money is God like never before, where dividend payments are a priority over innovation, where we elevate flawed people into positions of power based on their perceived ability to make money, not to make the lives of the average Joe better, that Stellantis is trying to make a buck off of something that probably cost almost nothing to develop. Total effing shocker.

Like you I am an original old MOPAR guy! Now I’m a little more old school since I’m retired and a 77 year old marine Vietnam era veteran, retired from the automotive profession. As a kid I loved cars and hot rods so much that my parents bought my first tool box full of tools back in the mid 50s because that’s what I wanted to be, a mechanic! My dad always had Plymouth’s in that era & for a long time Plymouth’s had flathead 6 cylinder motors , so that is what I cut my teeth on built and raced them! Electric cars have been around for a long time! They like most everything else are categorized in the great group of invented things as there is nothing new under the sun! There is no real extraordinary reason we should be forcing this type of transportation down people’s throats at this time in history especially the fact that they throw in everyone’s face that an electric car will save the planet! Bullshit! The first red flag is you have to buy one of these Dodge , & the rest of the major automobile manufacturers have found out that go Woke & go broke was not just a flash in the pan! Which Harley Davison found out this past year! Hopefully we will get back on track with the new trump administration taking charge in a few days! The out going administration has been the worst disaster to this country since the Second World War and damned near threw us into world war three! Some say we are actually in world war three right now! ? I totally agree with you! All these people that have followed the mandates of the Biden administration have gone down a loosing path of destruction actually meant to weaken , destabilize & destroy this great country! I’m not saying that there should not be any electric cars! But no matter what is invented as long as it’s safe! Should be “ available “ ! But not mandated for the public to purchase it! Most definitely do not try to market an electric car as something it’s not! Give it its own name! The dodge charger is Iconic! Marketing people today are imbeciles! Creative they are not! Uncle Tony 👍🇺🇸🦡🇺🇸…. Mad Mike S.

The reason for the auto industry insanity is because of the driving forces guiding the decision making and direction of these companies. American consumer desires is probably 4th on the list behind investors (trying to spike stock prices by following hype trends), government regulators (trying to squeeze the industry towards efficiency), dealer repair monopoly (restricting owner and independent shop ability to repair and modify) and another big one nobody talks about; chinese market consumer tastes / requirements. That is a huge driver behind the push to crossovers and EVs is the demand for them in China which at this point is becoming the worlds largest auto market

When they first debuted the EV charger they were bragging that if you wanted to go to the track you could just call them up and have the upgrades turned on for the weekend. that's when I knew it was a ripoff. sometimes I wish they would just shut down dodge and quite running it's name into the ground.

I weep for the new "motor heads" (or voltage heads?) who will never know the thrill of going to a Dodge dealer or Plymouth dealer and walking the lot and see Chargers, Challengers, Super Bee's, Roadrunners, GTX's Duster's and Darts with 440's 383's 340's 413's 426's and Hemi's. 4 BBL Dual 4 BBL or six Packs. And convincing the salesman to let you drive a Hemi car with a 4 speed. Good times. In 1971 I had an A12 69 1/2 Super Bee in High School. I paid for it working at Woolwoths after school.

If it’s software.. it’s a right to own issue. Say you buy the lower trim model and hack YOUR vehicle to put out the top spec of the hardware. Where would that not be considered legal? 😂

I feel ya Tony... I'm only 25 but I've been a lifelong Mopar fan, so I'm curious being that you're part of the older generation of Mopar fans, but is this what the 80's felt like as a Mopar guy? Nothing particularly exciting being released, the cars you liked being killed prior, and just an overall poor brand image seems like how the 80's get described to me by older Mopar fans. And that's how I feel about the brand currently. I want them to start building actual good cars again, something that's exciting, good looking and makes all the right sounds. I'm so tired of watching my favorite brand get destroyed by incompetent European idiots that don't have a clue how the North American market works and don't have a clue what it wants, and the fact that they've killed everything good that the brand had to offer makes me so mad, because now that I'm at an age where I'm making decent money and can afford one of the cool cars they had to offer, they're no longer in production and it's replacement is whatever the hell this thing is... Yeah... hard pass! You're right Tony, this is an embarrassment. I'm not part of the old school Mopar clan, just because I wasn't there, but I'm doing my best to keep it alive. Currently I'm in the process of 392 hemi swapping my 2012 Ram 1500, and I'm building a chassis and redoing the suspension on my 79 Volare Duster drag car that's powered by a built small block and backed by a 904. And because that's the Mopar I know, I too am embarrassed by this. My GM and Blue Oval friends have already been teasing me about it haha. Dodge really needs to get it together, but hopefully now that that dirt lump Tavares is gone we can get back to our regularly scheduled Mopar program haha.

I saw the video of them debuting the EV Charger and just shook my head at the ridiculous sound it made. They called it some kind of tuned “exhaust”, and I was like wtf, EV’s don’t have exhaust. A friend of mine said they should’ve made it sound like George Jetsons car! I agreed it would have been better……

Not wasting money on one of those. It’s like going hunting with a cap gun. Looks like a gun and sounds like a gun but useless. And you paid how much for the cap gun.
