That sound is soulless, period. Not sure what else to say??? Maybe sounds better in person? I find myself fighting off laughter when I hear it reving.

The demise of an American brand unless they pull something out of their hat.

And that car was actually a Dodge prototype. I figured the Fratzonic exhaust sound was a throw back when I first heard it.

I had a subscription to Chrysler power and there was a story about the movie and money that was in the prototype.

I've been noodling this over for a week to let things sink in...

I just watched the Raiti's Rides video posted earlier. That was a good look at the car. I DO NOT like the wheels but that's easy to fix and those probably won't be production anyway. I do like the stagger, rear tires are huge. A nice subtle titanium or anthracite wheel with a deep dish or concave and some red calipers would go a long way I think.

Interior is interesting. No real "buttons" per say but just touch items. Would be cool if they have haptic feed back. The tech will likely be pretty amazing in the instrumentation, but that's a double edged sword since people are already too distracted when driving as it is.

As of today "most" electric cars look like complete ass in my opinion. Boring vanilla throw away appliances. I saw one Tesla recently that the owner had customized that actually looked "OK". He'd lowered it, it was blacked out, color was black, and had a stagger wheel setup with deep dish black wheels. Other than that I've never seen one I liked and don't get me started on the awful Ford MachE. So the bar is set pretty low at present for style and Dodge has a real opportunity there if they do it right. I just wonder how many people are cross shopping Tesla and Dodge.

I dig that it's AWD and we all know it'll likely have a ton of horse power, although I'll say it now, you'll get some low amount to start and each tier is a higher cost monthly subscription.

Fake exhaust sound has got to go. That's just lame.

I find it so odd quite a few people making comments on the socials that "we don't have a choice" when it comes to EV. Of course we do. Are people that brain washed to think there isn't a choice? You buy it, or you don't. To get the whiz bang model it's probably gonna be $100K but there'll probably be some gubment grant or tax incentive that knocks that down, which is BS IMO.

The real problem is this crap being turned in to a political issue. They're cars for crying out loud. Green energy aside, the US can't save the world's environment on its own. Last I checked there's not some glass dome over the US. We're also not ready for all EV and won't be in at least the next 20 years. There's not enough infrastructure, standards aren't set, and too much electricity is still produced from fossil fuels. It's concerning to me those issues aren't being discussed.
