Does anyone else think the new body style on the Dodge Charger is boring? I don't know why they would do this type of style change. To me it looks very bland. The current generation of Charger/Challengers look way more aggressive. I don't own one, and wouldn't buy one (too expensive and common a vehicle), but I can appreciate the asthetic of the widebody Chargers and Challengers. They look downright mean. I love the slammed semi-futuristic muscle car look. The new body style looks like a regular commuter car. What happened? Maybe it's because they plan on doing updated body styles with widebody and spoilers etc... but debuting this type of car seems like a downgrade to me (on looks).(I'll post the current Challenger in next post for comparison)
For reference, I just think this looks way cooler. And it's actually a better car when you consider the weight that EVs are pushing, and the fact that the new ones only come with a V6 turbo setup or EV.EV might be faster in a straight line but there's the issue of needing to find charging stations and excessive weight from the batteries
the charger hasn't looked good since the 60s.
>>27832007it's a new twin turbo I6 actuallyhowever it has new model problems like every chrysler does and these wont be worth buying until at least the 2nd year in
>>27832019>it's a new twin turbo I6 actuallyOk, thanks for the correction. It's still a downgrade from the V8 Hemis imo. How about a twin turbo 6.4L V8 =D>>27832017I disagree. I like the widebody stance and newer wider tires. The current Challengers seem like a good blend of throwback to older muscle cars with a modern asthetic. The new generation simply look like commuter car EVs
the rear of the new charger is much closer to the original
>>27832126
>>27832126that is not what the original car looks like at all ai jeet
>>27832128>the thick hidden pillars and pugnosed trunkgross
>>27832007It's hard to beat this design. Damn these cars look hot af.
>>27832133Yep, I agree. I don't own one, but I can respect the look and engines that Dodge puts into the Hellcat widebody models. When I was down South (USA) they were everywhere. The downsides are: too common, too likely to be stolen, very high price ($80k+), high priced insurance, financing has high interest rates; but, the car itself is very aggressive looking.
I found out recently every single good idea Dodge has had in the past 20 years was completely Mercedes doing.RIP numuscle 1999-2024Have fun with your turbod to shit low displacement engines and EV dogshit.
>>27832128>the black plastic to attempt to make it look less obeseSad
>>27832128Just for niggers to be the main demographic in 10 years
>>27832004> I can appreciate the asthetic of the widebody Chargers and ChallengersThey are objectively a horrible design. They just slapped on some basic overfenders and called it a day. They absoutely ruin the shapes of these cars bodies and do not go with their design whatsoever. I mean it looks the same as that liberty walk widebody kit that had been designed way before dodge decided to do a factory widebody, and liberty wlak isnt known for tasteful looking bodykits. There were much better ways to make a widebody kit, like picrel, but dodge decided to cut corners. Im amazed people seem to like this half-assed job of a bodhkit. Well, not surprising given that the target audience is primarily colored
>>27832004Boring is good, I can already see these cars aging gracefully instead of being A N G E R Y till the end of time
Just be thankful that its still has an engine and not some cuck EV bullshit
>>27832126>>27832128The problems is the size of these things. Close doesn't cut it when the car weighs so much more. The '69 charger weighed 3900lbs (not a featherweight) but the nuDaytona weighs 5800.
>>27832004because it's a re-badged Opel with a Jeep engine
>>27832004Definition of neutered design.
>>27833639That looks awful.
>>27833639Dude imho picrel is a lot worse than the factory wide body.I totally dig a tasteful narrow body, like the OG SRT8, with chrome wheels and all, but this thing you posted looks like a diabetic in terminal stage.>>27833810Check out the new BMW M3. We’re getting on an era where a 4200 lbs Hellcat is light for a coupé.
>>27832004They actually look pretty good. Less tryhard boyracer than most everything else out there.
It's like they just traced a picture of an A5 but then tacked some muscle car bits onto it to make it less obvious
>>27832133no one in this thread needs to see this hideous faggot.
>>27833943two-door sedans have similar silhouettes? thank u for your genius insightretard
>>27833969Keep seething Motard. Won't stop Stellantis from going under.There's similar silhouettes and then there's a literal copy
