Depends on which state. We should also budget to include their Rascal.

Would love a vert Hellcat to go with my Charger Hellcat, but no way is a Hellcat worth the $90-100k new costs. Forget about adding the $50k+ or whatever to have the vert conversion done on top. LOL GTFO

I disagree, strongly, with this notion that EVs have ruined everything because of their acceleration. MAN, hell NO!!!
Straight line speed is just one element. Sound is very important to a LOT of people. I wouldn't take a Tesla Plaid unless you paid me to get one. I'd pay for a high revving, fast car that looks great and makes great noise, even if it couldn't compete with a Plaid in a drag race.

A Dodge EV with a battery pack capacity that can produce Hellcat+ hp is going to be a porker. Realistically, 600-700lbs more than a Hellcat. |

I mean, it's hard to predict how much it will weigh since it's going to be a bespoke platform, so it should do better than i4, but I do think given the price bracket you are likely correct it will be heavier than those. Still, if a Hellcat is 5500-5600 lbs, is that going to have a negative impact? It was already a pig and now the weight is at the very bottom of the car.

I would say 90% of real world owners modify, buy, or want to make their car fast in a STRAIGHT line. Let's not pretend it's all about taking corners when almost everyone who buys performance cars never take their car to the track. Some do, most don't. The thrill of driving something fast everyday means a lot to a car purchase. Autoglory just posted a video today of a model x plaid absolutely walking a stock mclaren 720S. That SUV weighs 5,400lbs. And a 720S weighs 3200lbs? And the model x still beat it easily. EV is the future whether we all agree or not. Might as well embrace this movement. |

This is hilarious.
It took 6 people in the plaid vs 720S with just the driver for the 720S to barely win. |
