Dodge is the return of it. After a short batch towards electricity under Carlos Tavares, former CEO of Stellantis, the American auto manufacturer turns the gears again. Dodge has expanded the range of EV’s ambitions and is now looking to return to its roots using gas-made performance cars-which could include a long-range V-8 muscle car.
New report from Bloomberg Add fuel to the fire. According to Stellantis, CEO of Stellantis, a significant expansion of its manufacturing investments in the United States later this week, doubles the company’s original commitment of $ 5 billion by a total of $ 10 billion over the next few years.
This new financing will support Chrysler, dodgeJeep Brands specifically. The money will go to reopening the plants that were closed in Illinois and Michigan, employing hundreds of workers, in particular-developing the new V-8 muscle car. Hell yes.
While nothing was confirmed by Stelantis, BloombergThe report report indicates that the investment “can lead to the new Muscle Dodge V-8.”
This is not the first time that rumors of the Dodge V-8 revived. August in August, when asked if V-8 could theoretically fit under the new charger, CEO Matt Makaleer replied, “Do not be surprised if it is appropriate“
Since then, Dodge has canceled high performance Banshee Ev chargerWhich was expected to produce more than 900 hp and lead the future of the electrical brand. Instead, the company converts the concentration to the upcoming Sixpack and Sedan charger variables, which simplifies the EV assortment into a few basic models.
There is no official confirmation of a new V-8 muscle car-but writing is located all over the wall.
