Why the HECK is there no manual option for chargers?

>>17133054
Because

why would they waste their time with a manual

>>17133069
because it's a charger

Chassis was designed for an automatic, and the manual transmission would need a significantly larger trans tunnel.

>>17133075
thats a pretty dumb reason

>>17133054
Because fat lazy burgers who live on wal mart tier food wouldn't buy it that
Way.

They literally cannot handle three peddles with their diabetes orthotics shoes.

>>17133078
you seem to forget what a charger was, just so you know it wasn't always a sedan and offered a manual before for many years

>>17133088
you seem to forget that even back then most were automatic

its a waste of money for all the r&d involved

these days manual has no place

I wish they were. Would've been so much more fun. :(

>>17133101
That is a cuck attitude and why we are getting btfo by china etc


MAGA. Embrace many transmissions. Fuck EPA standards that give us CVTs

>>17133109
:eyeroll

you such a cringelord

>>17133084
Have euros really drunk themselves this retarded and lazy?

>>17133054
BECAUSE ITS A SEDAN U STUPID

WHO PUTS MANUALS IN SEDANS ANYMORE?! LOL THAT"S DUMB.

>>17133054
It's slower than a 7-seater family sedan anyway :)

>>17133054
Artifact of the Daimler Chrysler era and Dodge being a bit lazy.

>>17133108
If I could get that model in a hellcat, I'd buy it right now.

>>17133217
Me too. The LX looked so much better than the newest gen.

>>17133118


But I live in the northeast USA

>>17133054
>Why the HECK is there no manual option for chargers?
Because faggots who are no good at manual run terrible times and blame it on the car saying it's the car makers fault for selling >Underpowered cars when in reality some people don't understand that running it redline for 5 seconds is slower because it runs out of gearing before the next shift.

you better not be talking shit about the god emperor

>>17133054
The car's main demographic is persons of darker complexion if you're picking up what I'm putting down

>>17133077
Automatic transmissions are physically larger than manuals retard.

>>17133114
so are you

>>17133054
Because the floor plan wasn't designed for a Manual.

>>17133054
Because it wouldn't sell since Americans are allergic to manuals.

>>17133077
You fucktard it shares a platform with the challenger with an available stick

>>17133349
>>17133600
My apologies, I was thinking of the floor pan not the transmission tunnel.

>>17133054
What I've heard is that the automatic transmission is part of the crash structure of the cabin, and the amount of time and money to certify the car with a manual option is not worth the tiny amount of the market that would buy one

Only Americans buy this pile of shit and Americans can't drive manual. So why should they sell it with this option?

>>17133054
Because niggers don't know how to drive them? And middle aged dad's have bad knees

>>17133274

Worthless self hating Europhile.

>>17133274
I rest my case.

Yours? Looks great.

A Hellcat is one of my dream attainable cars pretty soon. My dream spec would be Octane Red. Probably looking at a Charger, because I need the ability to haul people.

>>17133084
Fun fact the one dude I know who has a new charger actually DOES have diabetes. But, hes also one of the most ripped and in shape dudes I know. And hypee as fuck too.

>>17133084
This tbqh. Sharts can't shift, and the ones majority that can are poorfags who drive $3k Civic hatches from the 90s.

>>17138646
You black or middle aged?

>>17138646
I gotta be honest, I hate the new wheels.

>>17134434
This! This is the reason, the safety concerns with a manual outweigh the R&D needed to develop the tech for a low volume design

>>17133054
because every charger is a fucking joke and catching up and trying to out do a challenger at all moments

>>17133054
Because boomers and bros can't into stick shift and don't want a proper enthusiasts' car, they want a hotwheels car that they can brag about to everyone at the factory and on thanksgiving dinner to little billy.

>>17133054
who cares? its just unreliable Fiat garbage anyway

>>17133536
That's the thing though, the EPA fuel economy """""estimates""""" think CVTs get better fuel economy than a manual can. That's supposedly the reason why the Subaru Legacy and Outback are available with a manual in Canada but not here, despite all of them being built in the Indiana plant.

>>17138710
You are aware that English isn't the first language for the majority of Europe aren't you? How good is your German, Polish or Estonian?

>>17133054
Because it's a barge not a fun car.

>>17143895
>boomers can't drive stick
LOL wat.

Boomers were raised on stick.

>>17143895
Okay, bros I can agree with, but boomers had nothing but manuals for decades. Automatics only become standard in the US around the late 80s.

>>17144861
Why would he need to know those worthless irrelevant languages?

>>17143895
>boomers can't into stick
fucking LOL you're an idiot

boomers can all drive stick, they just got over it because they're not 16 anymore

manual transmission is a meme

>>17143921
So where's the evidence otherwise

>>17133054
black people cant drive manual...

>>17143921
yeah DAE le ((((EPA)))) jews ecksdee

CVT does get better fuel economy you idiot

>doesn't have to shift
>can keep engine in peak efficiency RPM literally forever

>>17146052
That's true in theory, but in practice, people hate CVTs that drive the way they're supposed to, so they're all programmed to "shift" like a conventional automatic, negating all benefits of having a CVT in the first place. Go test drive several different CVT cars, I promise they will all behave the wrong way.

>>17133075
>because it's a charger
It stopped being a charger the moment they decided to make it a sedan. Why stop now?

>>17133088
it was a fancy coronet technically a sedan

Stop posting nigger threads on /o/.
