There is no Wikipedia article to the production version yet but I’m glad that this thing can have more than 4 Cylinders unlike many other brand new performance cars in this type of vehicle and the fact that this isn’t a crossover is a good thing too
I’m also surprised that they’re leading with the EV instead of the I6 models.
I know there’s a push to seem all Green Energy and economical but for a Dodge Charger I’d definitely have expected the ICE model to debut first to try soften the pushback from the V8 fans.
I’m interested to see where it eventually goes though, I believe Dodge has clarified that it won’t get a V8 in the future but someone is going to put one in at some point and maybe they’ll reconsider.
It makes sense to share parts with their other models and the Hurricane is already used a good amount in their other models but I did expect a variant of the Pentastar V6 in a base model considering the 7th Gen had one.
I guess the Hurricane can just be pushed more than the Pentastar while still remaining more economical.
I do think it’s going to come with a “Drift Mode” or something like Hyundai has put into the Ioniq 5 N to make it more RWD biased.
They might do a RWD economy version for the EVs as they haven’t got good range but Dodge said they aren’t too concerned about that.
According to rumours they’re planning an EV “Banshee” after they release the ICE models which is going to have “gears” like the aforementioned Ioniq 5 and the Porsche Taycan/Audi E-tron GT have.
I think a full manual is out of the picture though as the world moves towards Automatics in general just for ease of use and liveability.
For that, if the new 2025 Charger will be added, I will go for the 550HP 3.0 Hurricane I6. That way, it should also have 6.4 HEMI & 6.2 SC HEMI engine swaps available.
