1. Hi Roman, thanks for a great review. I am going to try and rent one for my birthday to have a blast. Awesome review as usual

2. Considering the market for Chargers, not having a V8 is suicide. There’s more than peak numbers on paper. V8s have soul.

3. I get the utility, the AWD for the rain, and I still look like I have a life outside of carpooling. Integrity: 1 Boredom: 0

4. Thanks for the cameo Roman! Great job doing a comparison of all three of these before anyone else!

5. Love the new look 2 door!
   Thank you for bringing it back

6. If money wasnt a factor, I'd love to have the Charger Daytona. It's the only electric vehicle that appeals to me.

   If i had enough money to scrape by, the R/T model would be plenty enough for my driving purposes when it come to owning another car. One of the most important things for a new car for me is if can do 0-60 mph in 5.5 secs or less. Also nothing smaller than 6 cylinder and no cvt trans.

7. Hurricane straight 6, not V6. The original Charger was a 2 door, not a 4 door. For me the biggest problem wasn't the fact that it was electric, but the fact that it is all wheel drive. I don't want to go into setting to get rear wheel drive. Until it's rear wheel drive only I'm not interested in getting one.

8. Instant torque? I have dusted many Hellcats in my Model 3 Performance…love the sound of the Hellcat's supercharger whine and all that tire smoke fading into the distance…but fear not, I also have a MB S550 Coupe when a twin turbo V-8 starts calling my name…so it's not an either/or situation…you can have both

9. I can't believe the challenger died for this… 😢

10. I'm glad they are offering actual engines.
    There's nothing interesting about a electric car, specially comming from a company that was known for hemi engines

11. Guest appearance by my boy Matt Maran lol

12. Buy the used EV for $46k if you really want one.

13. the Hemi is coming back in the hellcat version. Dont call it the Hellcat, call it the Charger GTX and build a stripper Charger with the 5.7 Hemi and name it the Charger Road Runner and you will not be able to build enough of them. Muscle cars began in the 60's so bring the 60's back Stellantis.

14. Dont drive this if your BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Go do ghetto shit

15. This model as a whole had bad press from day one even a V8 option won’t save it, a lot of anti-consumer moves where made by MOPAR these past 5 years and it will take them at least double that amount of years to make right, my prediction this charger generation will be scrapped in the next 2-3 years if sales don’t pick up, I can see them bringing the power dollar program back during the summer time to see if that will move some units but still even with those discounts the cars no matter the trim is still overpriced, yeah that crooked Portuguese CEO did a number on them for sure, one of the most anti- consumer CEO I have seen.

16. $80k for a Dodge??!! I am convinced Stelantis is TRYING is put themselves out of business.

17. Electric will never muscle car status. Anyone who believes this nonsense is blind

18. So, spend over $50K for a new Charger then take it out a beat the crap out of it right? Sounds logical.

19. what differences between R/T and Scat Pack engines? is it just software or bigger turbos etc?

    i think the proportions / side profile on the 4-door look better than the 2-door. and more useful.

20. Dodge used to make cheap cars that people actually wanted. Man they've messed up.

21. To be fair the platform was designed from the ground up to be both EV and ICE.

22. Don’t ever put an EV in there again…

23. 10:59 see dodge, he's laughing. You did what you set out to do, you just need to fix the numbers and refine it.

    I'm thinking if you go smaller, that might fix a lot of issues.

24. wow thats really sad. Why release chargers noone wants? not a single v8 option??? a 20 year old CLS is nicer than this…. DO a side by side and see for yourself…

25. Arkansas State Police will have fun with the 4 door R/T

26. Only $2,000 for destination? What a deal!! Should've been $5k

27. The fake sound is just stupid. And all these 3 things wouldn't fit the parking spots at my workplace. I was looking at an electric scat pack2 at the dealer when I was getting an oil change for my Alfa and I just can't see myself driving this anywhere but on a highway. And I hate highways

28. I personally would take the 4 door gas Scat Pack, love the utility of the 4 door with the more powerful gas engine (I don't hate EVs, I just would prefer the gas versions)

29. I am always gonna be a gas or diesel guy BUT! Being a child of the early 90’s I loved power wheels so these electric vehicle to me today are adult power wheels it’s awesome lol!

    One thing that hit me lol..

    will charging stations have bronze, silver and gold electricity quality?

30. Had a 2017 R/T. Loved it. Got to say, not a fan of the new design nor the sound of the engine. Would probably go to the dealer to look at the new one, but end up in the second hand lot buying a previous model v8

31. Good video, but I stopped watching once Roman started his soliloquy about cars that fit his ass and have a soft ride. It feels like every GD video he does has to have some sort of comment about needing bigger, wider seats and more room. Don't need it. Don't want it.

32. 3 wrongs don't make a right

33. Roman, I think a better comparison would be like, "Trying to sell Beyond Meat Burgers to a Carnivore." Feel free to use this in future videos. 😁

34. Обожаю выпуски которые Роман ведёт сам)

35. You cant advertise a strong bias towards evs and expect the same group to think their worth it!

36. Its one of the last american dream classic cars, but way expensive for reality. Lets wait for the sales numbers. Great video TFLCar!

37. I know I'm in the minority, but I feel like these would look awesome in a wagon/shooting brake form. Keep it low but add the wagon roofline. Probably still wouldn't get it because Dodge, but it would certainly look cool!

38. The big American sedan. Hard to believe only Dodge and Cadillac still make them.

39. Huh
    Who knew the old smoothie Roman was still making really nice videos.
    I didn’t really know much about the car, will probably never buy one, but I might rent one on vaca now one day.

40. Kind of a waste of time doing a muscle car(debatable) test on wet snowy roads.

41. This is Dodge's stopgap car until they can actually design a new ICE car. They'll probably stop making it in this form after a couple of years. They will probably depreciate like mad. That's not much of a sales pitch.

42. Yet another reason to hate most car dealerships and auto manufacturers. They market a starting price and then when you add options, you actually want it adds another almost 50% to the total price. Why can’t they just sell one or two models and be upfront?

43. That 6 in stock form has more potential that all the stock gen 3 hemis.
    Already proven

44. Not heavy enough.

45. If it was faster and cheaper than their gas counterparts, people would change their minds. Evs are too big of a compromise to buy new now. Chinese car companies – hold my beer.

46. I like everything except the all wheel drive.
    Useless weight for a muscle car.
