As well as many other car brands @ the repo lot, Even Mercedes, Toyotas, Hondas, Mazdas, pick ups, SUV's I could go on & on, I'm very familiar with the business........

Dodge/Stellantis had plenty of opportunity to keep making them, but they can't. They don't meet fleet average economy and emissions numbers and can't even sell a decent portion of their vehicles in 15 states as of a few weeks ago. Chevy can sell me Camaro ZL1 or an Escalade V because they sell the Bolt and Lyriq. Ford can sell me a Bronco Raptor or an F150 Raptor R or Navigator because they sell the Mach-E and Escape Hybrid. Dodge/Stellantis just... doesn't really have anything to boost their corporate numbers, hell, they've been paying Tesla BILLIONS of dollars over the past decade because they've been lagging behind on emissions and needed to buy their credits

@@Black-Villain The answer to that shouldn't be to kill a product your customers love, it's to balance the equation with the electric stuff. this is their own fault for poor planning and not looking forward. they kept milking their cash cows and didn't invest in new powertrains or chassis for a long time. this charger is built on a 30-year-old chassis, this vehicle is essentially the same thing that came out in 2011 with design changes and power additions (hellcat). the 5 engines stellantis has, hellcat 6.2L, 6.4L, 5.7L, 3.6L, and the 2L (a real small number considering some competitors offer that on single vehicles) are used in all their products no matter the size, with just slight tuning changes. They're doing an almost clean slate renewal of their products because of how old all of them are.

Amén.

I would argue that the mining of fossil fuels and the resulting damage to the land, sea, and air is the greatest mistake humankind has ever committed.

@@simrantoor85 I completely get what you're saying, but honestly i think it's too late for Stellantis to even consider doing that. EPA and CARB rules are tightening on passenger cars within the next 5 years, and they aren't even launching any EV products in North America within the next 16ish months as far as I know. If they were willing to pull from the Euro branch of Stellantis, or had EV stuff ready to go or already on sale, things might be different. But as it is, I don't think they could justify the engineering cost for a new-gen ICE Charger/Challenger when they're quite a ways off of having a significant percentage EV/Electrified fleet to help their averages and therefore are going to accrue more fines or pay more emissions credits until they get to that point.

Trust me they aren’t getting rid of them because of the evs. It’s another issue

@@ttamcc.4674 What then?

I'd argue it's less fair that future generations will have to deal with the ecological damage caused by their parents who mined and burned fossil fuels, raising the average temperature of the planet and poisoning the food and water supply with microplastics.

@@mrgurulittle7000 Government.

@@dustdevl3404 Ohh… Fcking liberals!!🤬

Yeah, good times

Disagree.

Seems like Toyota is the only company willing to say no to going all EV.

EVs are not going anywhere, but you better not drive a v6 talking crap about EVs.

Dodge is 💀

@@spcnearywhat does that even mean?

@@2dthoughts it means most of the people talking about how much they hate EVs drive the v6 version of a car that came with a v8 or a 4cyl turbo econobox.

More EV fire death traps 🔥

New Hornet SUV. New Stealth SUV. New I6 Hurricane Charger and Challenger coming out. Few cars in the pipeline.

But the Mustang has a great advantage...it's still being manufactured...

Yeah...and get a really long extension cord...

Now, there's a claim with a huge caveat at the beginning, "If true..." rendering it virtually nothing but pure speculation...

Love ‘‘em too

German cars can be very quiet...especially when broken down

I know one state agency is rumored to be moving to the Durango. I can’t imagine how gutless a Durango v6 is going to be when loaded down with police gear.

@@jeffs2809 I can't imagine that's going to be a great idea either, Durango production is most likely ending within the next year or two at most

Only people from the hood buying or stealing these cars nowadays. The srt8 era was dope when nobody cared about dodge except the real enthusiasts. 2014 when the hellcat came out it started going downhill to me.

@@joshlamar1990The Hellcat is when it started going up hill and getting real power, only difference is the people buying them from the hood are the only ones posting them on social media

@@firedemon2166 not in my opinion I hate the hellcats the srt8s was just simple and beautiful forget power.

@@firedemon2166 they are pretty popular here in Oregon and Washington.

@@joshlamar1990 Power is a big thing, even back in the day the most wanted cars were the most powerful, if you only want simplicity just get a base model and let everybody else get the fast ones

All, the Brampton facility is being retooled IIRC. No doubt there will probs be a next-gen version of the Charger/Challenger, but who knows if it'll be full EV or Hurricane I6 or some kinda hybrid

Both, Hemi production is ending and they're retooling that factory for other products AFAIK

Barracuda was a model in the Plymouth line of automobiles. Do you think Stellanits is going to reuse the name for Dodge? Certainly an interesting twist on product management...

Until the government outlaws internal combustion engine vehicles all together!!!

This year, anyway, most dealers in my area are asking msrp or more for used (1-3 year old) charger & challenger 392’s. Some of the last call versions are getting $20k markups.

I love the Super Bee, but I’d take a Tesla Plaid. 5 seats, 8.8 second, 161 mph quarter mile if given the choice.

@@davidholmer6099 I could care less how fast they are. Nothing else about it makes sense.

It’s about time cars been on the market too long dodge been getting over on this old ass car.

@@joshlamar1990That would indicate it needed to be updated, not killed!

Did not need Tommy to showcase this vehicle for me to want 1. lol These special machines, the V8's, the sound they produce, it is all American. This crap about going V6 and slapping turbos on is a joke.

No! I said keep the hood pins, ditch the stupid cable ties. The pins are rad -Tommy

The model is going away, not the people who drive them, unfortunately.

Then get a Challenger. Some of us needed the practicality of a 4 door, and still wanted to scoot when we weren't driving the wife and kids around. My '12 SRT was garaged in one of the most expensive neighborhoods in the country...go figure.

@@donwilber1628 I never said chargers aren’t in fancy neighborhoods. There’s just a lot of them on trash neighborhoods. I’m glad you’re happy with yours. Have a great day.

@@Bostonharborwater Well, that's just word games then, equating them with trashy things. Traded mine in last year for an $80k Bimmer, and still miss a few of the toys that my new car doesn't have...vented seats, chilled cup holders, automatic cruise control to name a few.

@@donwilber1628 great. 👍🏼

Electric and twin turbo v6 , whatever in the jeep wagoner will be in the next upcoming models

Agreed. Tim Kuniski has killed Dodge and now will kill Ram.

The French has no love for America cars. They will destroy everything that makes mopar cars America with euro crap

If it isn't broke don't fix it !

Facts I’m so tired of seeing these cars.

But that's just the Mopar community, what about the car? The Challenger and Chargers are iconic, the Challenger was my second fav car 😔, I love Mopar but I don't love the Mopar community, but if you're a true car guy you would understand how legendary the Challenger and Charger are and you would miss the cars, Ik I do

Kia and Hyundai still around

Funny enough the Malibu seems to be a forgotten car no one talks about them that much

@@taylorward2983 I won’t miss it the car has been on the market for over a decade I was in high school in 09 when the srt8s started coming out dodge could have did a totally new car but they didn’t now these cars have a bad rap you have to basically babysit the car so it won’t get stolen.

Very

Yeah, because everybody needs a station wagon.

@@michaelbuteau4183 Based on the sales numbers, apparently they do.

Don't think they have much choice any more, their fleet average doesn't meet emissions/economy standards. They've had plenty of opportunity over the past decade to invest in electrification of their commodity models to improve their averages but they really haven't (minus Pacifica Hybrid and Wrangler 4XE). As of a few weeks ago, they can't even sell a decent portion of their vehicles in 15 states because of emissions reasons, and over the past decade they've paid Tesla multiple Billions of dollars for emissions credits... they've had plenty of time to do something about it, but they haven't really for some reason

Dodge is dead. People don't want a EV muscle car in enough numbers to keep the brand alive. Imagine if Harley Davidson did the same thing, the brand would die off pretty quickly.

The real sad thing is there's no need to kill them there still selling strong..I hope the ev falls flat on its face lol

@@bigsmith7349exactly I hope Stellantis goes bankrupt!
