    I think this car might be around 4200-4400 pounds. The 2 door will be lighter because it won't have the extra doors with power windows and door mechanisms. Also the inline 6 is lighter than the hemi. Now the all wheel drive may make it about even with the hemi motor. All and all i think this thing will be fast with the AWD and a downpipe and a tune would make it about 600-650 hp plus better gas mileage. Yeah the sound won't be as good but I'm still excited about it. Wish the ICE version came out first. Great video bro!!

    This is a really solid video. You used what information you were able to find to the best of your ability. I don't know how accurate loosely equating the weight all the extra components of the EV to that of the ICE will actually turn out to be, but it's a fair decision.
    Similar to what you mentioned, I believe the HO is definitely taking the GT in digs at the very least. Personally, I still just can't believe how huge this vehicle is. I drive my current car, let's just say, a bit recklessly. I definitely couldn't be driving this battleship of a car the same way.

    I really believe the 2 door charger with H.O. will come in around 4500-4600 pounds. All wheel drive will most likely give it an edge over the S650. New Mustang isn’t exactly light neither. Let’s not talk about the sound. 😂

    Can you calculate power to weight with 2 different cars with different ways of applying power to the ground?..the new charger is awd…the gt is rear wheel drive (spin city)..does this calculation apply to any scenario when both these cars meet at a light or track?…because as of right now the closest thing we got to the New hurricane is the BMW g80’s and those absolutely smoke gt’s and 392’s

    Not sure why people are so concerned about weight. Heavier vehicles are safer and more stable than lighter. Also the str6has more power than the bmw M str86 the M comes with 503 hp while the hurricane is 550 and will be all wheel drive! BMWs base 6 beats mustangs and many other cars 😂 the 6 won’t be an issue! These cars will provide better performance than the 8s with incredible tenability and the hurricane is modeled after the bmw 6

      Because of the space that the batteries take up; they had to design the car around the battery pack and electric motors etc.... There's really no way to make it smaller. Since the EV model and ICE versions share the same platform then unfortunately; both versions are going to be big and heavy. I still want the two-door scat version though.

    Finally getting an American midsize 2 door coupe again is awesome, it will be in a class of one. Only a very small % of potential buyers would care about the speed limiter & whether or not it can out-drag a smaller Mustang GT pony car. Hopefully the coupe version sells well so Ford & GM would consider bringing back midsize coupe models as competitors, like a new 4 seat Thunderbird & Monte Carlo.😊

    @anonymous3738 6 місяців тому

    With a 2-door and 4-door variant, the new Charger could easily lose to the Ford Mustang GT/Dark Horse and Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing, respectively. Because those cars have a V8 and come standard (and exclusively) with RWD. Plus, while I prefer automatic transmissions in every vehicle like most Americans do, the Mustang and CT5 are available in manual as well for those who prefer to control the gears themselves, which is now a very uncommon feature in any American car. However, those are mid-size cars and the Charger is full-size (including the new ones). So if Dodge would just listen to their furious fans’ criticism and include the same powertrain options as its predecessors, then they could keep up the competition. All the negative comments and reviews about the new Charger ever since its official reveal are only increasing to this day so it could act as a petition to prove to Dodge that they’re making a huge mistake.

    If this I-6 coupe is heavier that a 392 Chally, it will be about the most ridiculous failure of engineering and development ever. Actually going marginally the wrong way on the single biggest criticism. I may never give up my Chally and love Dodge, but this boat even fails at looking aggressive forward of the A post, stance, wheels. Looks like a big whale with an allWD GT ride hieght. I love Dodge and my Chally, but this car is a dud on styling alone even if it was coming right now with the HEMI's. Great vid!
