Cool & fun electric muscle cars are coming, says Dodge CEO

"Eventually people will see that this technology can make something cool and fun."

According to media reports, Dodge CEO, Tim Kuniskis, stated that going further into the age of EVs, the "spirit of performance" won't be going away.

During an event which showcased all of Dodge's current V8 models, alongside the Charger Daytona SRT Concept and plug-in hybrid Hornet R/T crossover, Kuniskis stated that the capabilities of EVs will steadily turn heads and gain a following.

The Dodge CEO stated that the industry was in a similar position in the 1970s when regulations put a shackle on muscle cars. However, he adds that this time around, manufacturers will deliver fun EVs with plenty of punch for speed lovers. Kuniskis mentions, "I get it: Not everybody is adopting to this technology right away, and not everybody will. It will take many years for everybody to, but people will. Early adopters will, and when they see what we can do with this technology, they will start coming along."

He further added, "Eventually people will see that this technology can make something cool and fun. It’s probably going to sound different, but people tuning cars, making cars faster and competing against each other will not go away. People are going to compete. People are going to compete to have a cooler, faster, funner car and it’s not going to change."
