New Dodge Charger
The new Charger was unveiled today and represents an interesting play.............

The Charger now representing both coupe and sedan, the old coupe was named Challenger. The V8 and V6 engines are gone, replaced by the new Jeep inline 6 or an all-electric powertrain. It also seems that the ancient Mercedes platform has been retired for a new but bigger and heavier Stellantis platform.
Personally, I'm not a fan of the sedan, it looks too big and slab sided. The chiseled lines and flat surfacing suits the coupe better.
The above contrasts to Ford where they have kept an existing platform and engine lineup, giving the people what they want................a V8! And GM? Well, they threw in the towel. I doubt we will see these new Dodge models, but at least they have kept the nameplates alive. I think a Charger Coupe with the inline 6 would be a very nice piece of kit................it's been a while since an inline 6 Chrysler/Dodge has roamed the highways.
