I remember at sone point after Pontiac died, there were threads here about how they could have been revived using old names on cars based on models by their sister companies. And then when Scion died we did the same. Dodge seems to be going in the cirrect direction, but let's come up with a new line up of Dodge vehicles using existing FCA platforms to revive old model names and sit alongside the Challenger and Charger. Bonus points for a new Chrysler lineup too.

Reminder that a Volvo 2l 4banga can make northwards of 400 HP with H-rods and some minor mods, and weighs about fucking nothing.

Realtalk though, nobody in the billing department gives a flying fuck about supercars /o/ likes to autism about. They make up a tiny shred of the market. The Civic, the VW Beetle, those are the cars that build huge revenue.

So if you wanna save Dodge, I dunno. It's just a fucking brand, not a car manufacturer. It's a label, a sticker, nothing more. It belongs to Fiat Chrysler. Fiat Chrysler is doing pretty okay because they have enough shitboxes to keep up revenue. So I don't see the issue.

Create the 4th gen Hemi: All aluminium block, apply direct injection, try and put Multi air on it. Displacement of 5.7 (truck and base-spec), 6.4 (classic Mopar 392 for Scat Packs) and 7.0 (426 Hemi, fuck yeah) for upper trim units. Invest in turbo technology. Next generation Hellcats will be twinturbo to counter the upcoming twinturbo Ford GT500.

Charger:
>upcoming Alfa sedan chassis (think E-class sized, again, but lighter
>offer inline 4, and Hemi engines. Ditch the in-between V6
>offer a wagon and a manual for next to no research cost

Challenger

Demon

Viper
>move the V10 to the Hemi architecture
>offer the ACR with turbo's and a sequential manual. Double the MSRP.
>create a Corvette-eating base spec model
>>
>>15190372
Wait, they're already moving the Caravan to Chrysler with the Pacifica.

Chrysler should have a 200C, 300c, and add a 400C to counter Lincoln's Continental. Think underengined luxury.

Isn't a single turbo more than enough for the 4?

Challenger is selling too well. Can't risk losing the market by killing brand identity. It's the same reason we'll never have a Charger Coupe.

Probably sequential. Smaller turbo hands over to the bigger as revs rise. Used to reduce spool time but still make bigger top end power

I think FCA has some sort of contract with Mazda that would exclude a high hp engine. Dodge would be better off with a 2 door Giulia, calling it the Copperhead and offering a convertible. A Dodge Miata would still be pretty good, call it the Demon or something and offer the Fiata's 1.4 turbo.
>>
>>15192987
>compete with the Miata
Hell naw. FCA can use the Miata chassis, might as well use it.
>>
>>15192987
>BoF and unibody
No. It'd increase development costs.

>Convertible challenger
Why isn't this a thing yet?

>Drag versions
Modern retro aerocars would be ugly ad fuck.
>>
>>15193088
A 5.7/6.4 Hemi won't fit in the Giulia chassis.

A Hemi sure as fuck won't fit in the transverse 4C chassis. Just modernise the Viper and use a carbonfibre tub. Updating the Viper V10 with the Hemi archicture seemsblike a good idea, especially with two turbo's. It'd need something like a sequential gearbox at that point.
>>
>>15193885
Any turbo 5 banger will do.
>>
>>15188304
and on what FCA platform would this fucker ride? The only one I can think of that would do justice to it (and even then that's questionable) is the Dart platform.
>>
>>15196386
Giulia fits the bill, except it'd need AWD.
>>
>>15188410
>Dodge Omni GLHS 2
Dodge has honestly considered it.
>>
>>15196392
The Dart platform has already been equipped with a V6 and AWD in other models though. Like the Chrysler 200 and Jeep Cherokee.
>>
>>15196408
It won't go just RWD though.
>>
>>15196412
I'm sure you could rig a Haldex system to do that though. the original Stealth was a transverse setup, and using the Giulia would mean a longitudinal setup. And a lot more weight.
>>

the QV Giulia has AWD

>>
>>15196426
You can't rig a transverse, front engine AWD system just to be RWD.

The original Stealth weighed about 3800lbs in turbo AWD trim. A RWD twinturbo Giulia QV fourdoor weighs 1530kg or about 3400lbs. Even when you add an AWD system, you'd make up for that by going to a two door.
>>
>>15193885
940's have dat M90 gearbox. Fucking things can take a good beating. Get a turbo model. They also did some in-house modding with the turbo+ package.
>>
>>15196308
>BoF and unibody
>No. It'd increase development costs.

I was thinking that the military could use some variety and have a Cummins Durango that is BoF.
>>15196246
>Implying that FCA will help Dodge out at all
>>
Every dodge is now a FWD turbo 4 or twin turbo v6. with the option to add AWD in the form of an electric motor driving the rear.
>>
>>15190403
Are you retarded? The Grand Caravan has always has a Chrysler-tier trim, what do you think the Town & Country is? The Pacifica is some new almost-a-crossover bullshit.

This is a good idea, but it's more likely to be transverse FWD with AWD as a performance option. So long as it's real AWD like the VR4 and not shitty Haldex it could be a respectable Grand Tourer.

Nope. It's the direct replacement for both the Grand Caravan and the Town And Country. And it's a minivan, not a crossover.
