No electric car can sound the way a V8 Mustang GT sounds period!

The new Dodge concept has some simulated sounds I believe, but honestly adding fake gear changes and gas engine sounds to an electric is a bit lame.

I am 100% in agreement with you Alex, look what BMW did with the latest generation of 7 Series cars, gas, electric, hybrid the same body different propulsion drives under the skin. That is the right way to do it, Mercedes Benz messed up[ and I agree the EQ line up looks blah at best and that is being kind.

The best part of EV's is the instant torque they have no lag in building up power.

If Trump gets in Office he'll slow down this madness of banning gas powered cars.

The new Supra is built in Germany by BMW on the Z4 platform and the FIAT 124 was built in Japan by Mazda based on the MX-5 Miata platform..

I always liked the Hemi V8's by Chrysler and not glad they are going to V8 heaven, but you have to admit these are some strong output numbers form teh straight 6 that will replace them in the offerings.

From that car and driver article.


"The twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six produces 420 horsepower and 469 pound-feet of torque in its base format, while the high-output version of the engine is rated at 540 horsepower and 521 pound-feet of torque."
