Video Summary
- The car has launch control. - The car has fratzonic exhaust. - It has up to 670 horsepower and 627-pound feet of torque. - The power comes from two electric motors and a 93.9-kilowatt hour battery. - Both from the outside and inside, the fratzonic exhaust is interesting. - The custom drive modes change the interior and exterior sound. - The driver modes are accessible from the steering wheel. - High-performance Brembo brakes are included. - As annoying as the exhaust can be, it does need to be revvable on the road. - In Track and Drag drive modes, there is too much drone in the interior. - Drove in a pre-production car, and can give engineers feedback. - The R/T has a 308-mile range, while the Scat Pack has 241 miles of range. - It can fast charge in about 20 minutes under optimal conditions. - There are 6 piston Brembos in the front and 4 in the rear. - The "R-wing" is a literal pass-through for aerodynamics. - A six-pack comes out the latest. - Rear passengers might not fit in the 2-door version if they are tall. - It has unreal ambient lighting with 64 different colors. - Real carbon fiber covers a lot of the interior. - Some drive modes robbed power, giving slower launches. - Launch control is tricky to use effectively. - In sport mode, there was better control over wheel spin on a drag strip. - Drifting the car is not enjoyable due to heavy traction control. - With all the good things about this car, looks, drive modes, interior and tech, it was given a "good attempt" score. - As good a job that Dodge could have done with the exterior sounds - The base RT starts at $59,595 USD, but fully loaded it would have a sticker in the hundreds of thousands of dollars. - The styling of the car is both futuristic and a throw-back. - It has a new customer base that is an “interesting concept.” - It's not as enjoyable as a manual, gas powered car - The Scat Pack is the top of the line, better than RT version - It is not as fast as expected, given its performance stats. - There is also a dash-cam mode for track and every-day use - Some adjustments needed to make a true muscle car.
