Dodge reveals first electric muscle car...Dodge Charger Daytona SRT coming in 2024

The streets of The Windy City will be filled with the roar of V8 engines when NASCAR comes to town this summer, but things are already loud at the Chicago Auto Show.

Dodge brought its Charger Daytona SRT Banshee electric concept to the event and is showing off its unique "exhaust" system.

The production version of the battery-powered coupe is set to replace all of Dodge's V8-powered sports cars next year, but it is equipped with a couple of features to keep the classic muscle car experience alive.

Along with a multi-speed transmission that's not actually necessary for an electric car, but provides the physical impact of powerful gear changes under acceleration, the car also has something Dodge calls the Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust.

That instant torque off the line leaves almost everyone in the dust when the stop light turns green.

Sounds energy wasteful. They gradually phase out such capability.

My goodness, they really think we are idiots.

Unfortunately, a good portion of the public are, otherwise we would not have a mentally handicapped crook as chief along with a backup who are not a whole lot better.

Will they simulate the smell of the exhaust next? How absurd is this going to get?

Yep, ballast resistor, set of points, condenser, and a screwdriver in the glove box of my 64 Polara.

When we were kids, we used to put playing cards in our bike’s spokes to simulate engine sound. This is the modern version of that.

Back in the seventies, I watched a demonstration of a military laser firing. The briefer noted that many decision makers were disappointed that the laser produced no sound on firing. He laughed when I suggested that it would be simple to incorporate an artillery simulator to produce sound effects.

Or since it’s electric maybe the sound of a swirling ufo.

Real Men never buy or drive an EV

They're for the zombies who have msnbc and cnn wired into their brains. EV's are inferior to ICE powered cars and cost substantially more too.

Yep. I use to take cards from my parents bridge deck to get the sound. They didn’t know until bridge night.
