Kind of looks like they paired the back end of the 1999 concept car with the front end of a modern Dart.

They could have done so much better. Just looks all unproportioned all over.

What’s the rope hanging out of the trunk for?

This is the supposed bottom of the barrel base model, and apparently the proportions look fine in person, whole car looks 10X better

You're entitled to your opinion even if you're wrong.

It looks like every other late model generic looking car IMO.

I'll reserve judgement until I see it in person and you should too. I mean, you know you're going to own one eventually (all you former challenger haters ended up with them, so quit cryin')

Makes me wonder if this is just to silence the 2-door crowd. We've been calling for a 2-door Charger for years. So now they make one that's so ugly, nobody's going to buy it. That way, they can go back to cranking out even uglier 4-doors and continue to tell us there's no market for 2-door cars anymore.

Funny how I see tons of 2-door Hondas, Kias, and BMW's and I live in the armpit of the universe!

I mean.... this Charger isn't terrible... I've seen worse. But, it's BORING. Dare I say Chrysler has not cranked out an exciting car in over 20 years. Even their fancier Challenger models are just lipstick on a pig. The Challenger is also a BORING car. There's no style to it. It looks like someone asked their 6-year-old and *AI to draw a car. I bet the retail on this new Charger ain't gonna be cheap either. So, shelling out $75,000 for a boring car? No thanks. There are options for something much more stylish at that price point.

Typical Dodge; can't get the bumper cover paint to match the adjoining panel.

These pictures are all of prototype and pre production test cars. Of course the paint isn't going to match.
And the "rope" off the decklid is most likely there for a safety thing I would likely say.
I used to be a test driver, driving prototype Hellcats, Dodge Darts, Jeep Renegades, Cherokee's,Durango's Charger's..etc, back in 2013.
All those vehicles had mismatched paint, some had NO paint, different panels, interior pieces and so on. They were all PROTOTYPE mules!
Engineering working all the bugs out, while making adjustments and improvements along the way.

I think it's a step in the right direction, But still needs some work. Definitely better than that 4 door thing they called a "Charger". I think it was a disgrace to the name! From what i read the (ev)performance is supposed to be up to the hellcat level. Have to wait and see, I'm sure they will have different versions/options. What ever happened to making both two and four door cars? If by some chance you need 4 doors it was an option. No options today! Most people today don't care about looks, Just look at all the 4 door suvs that look all the same on the roads.

doesn't matter what they come up with, i can't afford it anyway............

The "bird bath" hood dip is a great place for snow and ice to pack in. Then, when the car warms up and you at driving speeds, it will fly off and hit the guy driving behind them.
Due to "delays", it is supposed to launch in Q4 as a 2024 model. Then switch over to a 2025 model in January with no changes.

Looks like a Camaro...
