Dodge ‘Never Lift’ plan promises ‘Chief Donut Maker,’ big news every quarter

Dodge has announced sweeping plans to whet the gearhead appetite in a program called, cheekily, “Never Lift.” It promises a new product or enthusiast-related announcement every three months or less for the next two years, plus a road map that’s alternatively titled “24 Months of Muscle.” Kicking it off are several programs, the most significant […] November 09, 2021 at 06:57AM

2022 Dodge Durango Mopar Edition hits the floor at SEMA

The Stellantis SEMA news spout isn’t closed yet, and this time it’s all about Mopar. Today, we present to you the 2022 Dodge Durango Mopar Edition. It’s essentially a regular Durango R/T that’s been worked over from head to toe with Mopar parts. Instead of just being a concept like the other Stellantis reveals for […] November 03, 2021 at 06:58AM

3-row Jeep Wrangler, V8 Kaiser ambulance, and more from Mopar for SEMA

SEMA is back this year, and as is tradition, the American Stellantis brands Jeep, Ram, Dodge and Mopar are bringing some truly amazing concepts to the show. The brands have come up with seven vehicles, four from Jeep, two from Ram and one from Dodge. Some of them show off the current Mopar catalog and […] October 30, 2021 at 06:58AM

2022 Dodge Challenger and Charger get a streak of Halloween spirit

Dodge has done a stunningly good job of keeping the Charger and the Challenger, two of the oldest cars sold new in the United States, looking fresh. Its designers aren’t out of ideas yet: It announced Hemi Orange and SRT Black packages for the 2022 model year. As its name implies, the Hemi Orange package […] October 28, 2021 at 06:58AM

Hellcat heist: 4 hot Mopars stolen from Orlando airport

According to News 6 in Orlando, Fla., the Orlando International Airport was the site of a small Hellcat heist. The local news agency learned that four Hellcat-powered cars – two Chargers, a Challenger and a Grand Cherokee Trackhawk – were stolen from the airport’s two closest parking garages. Three of the cars were apparently taken […] October 16, 2021 at 06:57AM

2022 Dodge Durango adds a few features, removes a bunch of colors

Automotive News‘ forecast for the Dodge Durango is a cliffhanger, reading, “End in 2024?” If the three-row muscle SUV does only have two model years left, next year’s minimal changes that giveth and taketh away make sense. With the Hellcat engine a one-and-done for the lineup, five trims remain: SXT, GT, R/T, Citadel, and SRT […] October 11, 2021 at 06:59AM

Porsche, Dodge top J.D. Power ranks of most appealing car brands

We often say this here at Autoblog — maybe we don’t say it often enough — but there truly aren’t many mediocre-to-terrible cars on the road anymore. Most cars are pretty good, and many-to-most are downright appealing, with fascinating new vehicles coming out all the time. That sense is borne out in the 2021 edition […] September 17, 2021 at 06:58AM

When even Dodge is planning an EV, internal combustion’s days are numbered

This anecdote will date me: During the 1979 oil crisis, I was filling up my VW one day when an old guy on the opposite pump began bitterly cursing about having to pay $1.50 a gallon for gasoline — $5.60 in today’s money. He probably expected to hear a “damn right, mister,” but I nodded […] August 26, 2021 at 06:58AM

Dodge says the Challenger and the Charger will live on through 2024

Dodge earlier this year revealed plans to put an electric spin on the muscle car. It also warned it will need to ditch the V8, but it noted that adopting electrification won’t immediately drive the Challenger and the Charger out of its range. “The new platform comes in 2024. The new car comes in 2024. […] August 20, 2021 at 06:57AM

Dodge PHEV due in 2022 expected to be the Hornet

A relatively new saga involving hornets in the Pacific Northwest begins with the adjective “murder” and gets worse from there. A relatively dated saga involving hornets in the automotive industry begins with the name “Dodge” and is — or could be — much friendlier to plant and animal life. Last year, former Dodge parent company […] August 12, 2021 at 06:58AM

Jeep announces its first EV will make its debut in early 2023

Jeep and Dodge are putting a much bigger focus on electrification now that they’re part of the Stellantis group. Jeep plans to release its first series-produced electric vehicle in 2023, and Dodge said its first plug-in hybrid will land in 2022. Both models appeared on a product roadmap that Stellantis distributed to investors this month. […] August 05, 2021 at 06:57AM

Barris-customized Dodge Challenger with vertical doors is out of this world

George Barris is world-famous for creating the 1966 Batmobile, but his imagination didn’t stop there. He continued customizing cars well into his 80s, and one of his first Dodge Challenger-based builds is for sale on Cars & Bids. Originally a 2008 SRT8 model, this Challenger was given the nickname “Red Demon” by Barris and partner […] July 23, 2021 at 06:59AM

Dodge could enter Peugeot’s Le Mans-bound 9×8 hypercar in IMSA races

Fiat-Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) and PSA Group merged under the Stellantis umbrella in early 2021 to achieve economies of scale, and this benefit could surprisingly extend to racing. Executives are debating whether to give Dodge its own version of Peugeot’s recently-unveiled 9×8 hypercar to race in America, according to a recent report. “While we only heard […] July 22, 2021 at 06:58AM

Dodge, Ram, Jeep — Stellantis — dumped a ton of news: Here’s a roundup

Stellantis hit us with an absolute deluge of information regarding its future electric vehicle plans Thursday, including a roadmap for each of its brands to reach a goal of making electrified vehicles 80% of the company’s total global volume by 2030. We’ll hit all of the highlights here, with an emphasis on those that matter […] July 10, 2021 at 06:58AM

This Dodge Charger pickup is like a modern-day El Camino, and it could be yours

Chevy had the El Camino. Ford, the Ranchero. Dodge had the little Rampage mini truck and also the Magnum wagon, but never anything quite like El Camino. Smyth Performance stepped in to fill that gap a number of years ago with its pickup truck conversion for the Dodge Charger, which we’d like to call a Dodge […] July 08, 2021 at 07:00AM

Something new from Dodge is coming on July 8, but it’s still a mystery

There’s Dodge muscle car news coming soon, but we don’t know what it’ll be yet. Muscle Cars and Trucks recently published a report wherein it interviewed Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis and asked him about what’s coming down the pipeline. “Tune in July 8 … we will have some pretty interesting stuff July 8” is all […] July 01, 2021 at 06:59AM

Far and wide flooding in Detroit region lowers vehicles at Jeep plant

A dispatching yard close the Stellantis Jeep industrial facility in Detroit was overflowed this end of the week after serious climate pounded the district. The vehicles submerged give off an impression of being Jeep Grand Cherokees. We’ve contacted Jeep for additional subtleties and will refresh this post when we hear back. The Detroit Free Press […] June 27, 2021 at 06:58AM

740-hp 1969 Dodge Charger ‘Scraptona’ wins most recent Hot Wheels Legends leg

We just got a glance at three of the vehicles up for thought for last night’s Hot Wheels Legends Tour leg. Furthermore, the triumphant vehicle wasn’t one of them. Luckily, Hot Wheels gave us some photographs two or three subtleties on the victor today. It’s a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona called “Scraptona,” and it’s anything […] June 26, 2021 at 06:59AM

SpeedKore 1968 Dodge Charger ‘Hellacious’ is a mid-motor, ‘F9’ recognition magnum opus

This may be SpeedKore’s coolest Dodge Charger assemble yet, and that is saying something, on the grounds that SpeedKore has built various unnecessarily cool Chargers in the past. Why is it the coolest? Two reasons. One, it’s mid-motor with a Hellcat engine sitting behind the front seats. Furthermore, it’s actually similar to the Charger that […] June 26, 2021 at 06:59AM
