I think Donut Mode is only avaialble on the police variant.
They probably integrate it with the krispy kreme app so it engages whenever there's a fresh batch announced.

Sixpack? Bee on the fender? Please make it stop!!!

Didn't expect anything good. It could have had potential as a Next Gen ride if it had at least a 392 in it but hell no...none of that for us.

I know it’s not what we all want. But I’ll order the 6 cylinder charger as my next daily

but, but it's "delivering Hellcat levels of sound intensity " :rolleyes:
Same could be said about a dial up modem handshake or a foghorn.

They've lost their way. It's not about the intensity of the sound, but the /quality/ of the sound...
A quiet V8 is still a V8. Sure, more rumble, or a louder V8 is great too, but first and foremost it's the sound of the /V8/.
Make any other less-pleasant (or unpleasant) sound /louder/ and you're doing no one any favors...

The coupe might just be the best looking EV I’ve seen, but that’s a low bar.

They spelled "Fartzonic" wrong...................

Matt McAlear, Dodge's sales and marketing head, is said to have revealed that the car will incorporate the Charger Daytona SRT concept's Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust, a sound generator meant to react to rpm to imitate the varied sound of a gas-powered exhaust. According to McAlear, the automobile will be as loud as the Hellcat versions of the Challenger and Charger, reaching up to 126 decibels.
Our Tundra had piped in exhaust noise. I took it back and told them to turn it off no matter if it meant cutting wires. Fortunately they were able to turn it off.

This is what's going to happen to these cars. The sound is really fake and annoying as hell.

Maybe around there, where there are lots of repair facilities.

Here they use Rams.

Not sure if they will continue with the 6 cylinder?

Well, pretty clear 'we' are the target audience they are trying to reach/convince/convert with that vid.
Nice try guys, but no cigar !!

Someone wake me up when they get their collective heads out of their butts and shoehorn a next gen Hellcat engine into it !

The look/style of the car is ok by me, I mean we've been asking for a true-retro designed Charger for quite some time.

I wonder who will be the first to V8/blower swap one! :)

Can’t believe they think that talking like a bad ass, fake noise, and the little lightning bolts are going to get us all excited about the future of Dodge.
