Maybe Ford will make an EV in a Mustang body because this Dodge is legit IMO

Looks cool but I'm not a fan of the obnoxious electric engine noise.

I'm sure they will sell at least 10 of them by 2029.

Here's another video - this is of the presentation:



I've never really been a Dodge fan, but I can at least appreciate the styling that looks a bit different and isn't a crossover. I think they're actually making it a 2 door sports car because it's not going to sell as well as a popular crossover or pickup so they won't be crippled by a slow ramp. I am really stereotyping here, but I view a lot of Dodge buyers as those who will "never buy an EV." That said, I never thought I'd buy an F150 either.

I still think Chrysler, Stellantis, whatever is really limping in to the EV world and will be crushed by others like Ford, Kia, Hyundai, and VW who are really leaning forward into it.

The EV we know as the Mach-E should have been named something else. A Mustang is not an SUV and now the name that makes sense for the true electric Mustang is taken.

I hope Ford is up to the challenge of a true electric sports car. Stellantis seems to be taking it seriously.

Vanishing Point. 1971 Challenger. Maybe they will redo the movie with an EV. Oh wait, cops would catch up to him at his first charging stop.

EV preorder arbitrage has become a cottage industry.

I mean not just EVs. Flipping 4XEs basically funded my Lightning. Thank god for Leasehackr. It was like $9-$11k profit per Jeep when the going was good.
