    Here is a comparison of the dimensions of the Challenger and the new EV Charger.

    The Charger is longer, wider and higher, with a larger wheelbase. I suspect that it will also be much heavier with its batteries.


    Charger Challenger
    Length 206.6 in., 197.7 in.
    Width 79.8 in., 75.7 in.
    Height 58.9 in., 55.7 in.
    Wheelbase 121 in., 116 in.

    Powertrains EV, I6 V6, V8

    I don't think that the new Charger looks anything like the 1968 version.

    I'm not nor will I ever be interested in an EV. I am however interested in the gas version of the new Charger. The body style looks nice and the interior is very nice I think the 550 horse and over 500 fp torque along with the full time 4 wheel drive will be great. They are also saying they will have the exhaust set up to sound like the V8 challenger and Charger of today. I'll just have to wait and see how it actually turns out but I will look them over and test drive it. NOT THE EV !

    If they can get battery range up to 400 miles or so and charging times down to 10 min or so maybe.

    I bought a chevy bolt (for the tax rebate). It dropped 38% in value in 1 year which is saying alot because i bought it for msrp.

    Drove it on a 4.5hr trip which took 6hrs with charging...

    Needless to say traded it in on challenger lol

    The 1968 Charger is the best Charger over all other Chargers in styling.

    I like the looks of the new Charger. I'm curious about the weights with the internal combustion engine. I fully expect the electric version to be much heavier.

    it's note the dress that's ugly. It's YOU.

    -me to the car beneath the sheetmetal, not the appearance of the sheetmetal.
