Euphoria on the Dodge Challenger forum

Topic of the day. Maybe we won't be going the way of Pontiac and Olds and become orphans. Dodge may be safe for a bit but it's still too soon to know if all the Dodge dealerships will survive. There is nothing anyone wants on the lots after killing the Hemi. The Jeep line has become horribly expensive with many $60,000+ cars sitting on lots. Who can afford that? The new Hornet is a disaster with far too many in the shop, and no Challenger or Charger V8 cars on the horizon. The EV push was as stupid as it gets. We are officially back to the 1980's 'nothing here' lineup at Dodge.

2023 was the last model year for both the Challenger and Charger Hemi engines..The models will possibly come back as some reconstructed things with EV or 6 cylinder engines.

The new guy was a big proponent of the Hellcat so maybe Dodge can be saved.

Not if Stellantis has anything to say about it, as they've already invested billions of $$$ towards their EV based technology, including the 2025 and up EV Dodge Charger...
