Dodge

How good does a bike have to look in order to make up for the fact it's functionally compromised? From futuristic customs to retro throwbacks, these five motorcycles make hefty practical sacrifices at the altar of vanity.

New cars bought in the last few years have twice as many quality problems as they had in 2010. Some well-known brands are averaging more than five issues per car – and the stats show things will probably get a lot worse before they get better.

The 2023 Dodge Hornet looked to be an okay entry into a popular vehicle segment. The Hornet is relatively compact and, on paper, has good numbers. But most of my colleagues have not been kind to the Hornet. However, I think they’re wrong.

The new Charger Daytona SRT Concept shows that Dodge's electrified muscle car lineup will be even sharper and more tunable than its ICE line. The new Charger concept has 400- and 800-V architecture options with no fewer than nine tuning stages.

There’s a lot to be said for a well-done minivan. These are the most versatile vehicles on the market. A well-done minivan is spacious, comfortable, maneuverable, and extremely useful. The 2022 Pacifica meets all of those criteria.

The Specialty Equipment Market Association show (SEMA) happens every year, and usually features some seriously customized vehicles. Mopar’s offerings this year include a nose-thumb at Tesla, a customized plug-in Jeep, and a scary apex predator truck.

We’ve driven our share of muscular off-road machines. From the Ford Raptor to the uber-lush G Wagen and the Ram TRX, it’s all been fun. So what's next? How does a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon with a 6.4-liter monster under its hood sound?

Dodge seems intent on shoving hp into everything possible. The company’s potent 6.2-liter supercharged V8 and its Hellcat moniker are becoming synonymous with “ludicrous muscle.” Now you can take the whole family along on your drag strip sprints.

For anyone who hasn’t been paying attention, Dodge has become a performance brand. As the last remaining throwback muscle car maker, the company keeps the American dream alive with its lineup of V8s – such as the Challenger Hellcat Redeye.

By most accounts, the era of big sedans from Detroit is ending. Dodge didn’t get that memo, however, and has continued pouring excellence into the big Charger. This year, the GT model gets all-wheel drive and an 8-horsepower performance boost.

The fuel efficiency of pickup trucks has improved significantly over the past decade. We drove the 2020 Ram 1500 in both of its higher-efficiency powertrain options – the eTorque mild hybrid and the EcoDiesel turbodiesel – to see how they stack up.

Ram has put a lot of work into its new-generation heavy-duty pickup trucks. About a year ago, Ram introduced the all-new 2019 Ram HD lineup in Detroit. We've recently been putting the 2020 Ram 2500 Limited trim through its paces.
