Time to wait for electric muscle cars, yeeeh

Like most displaced and typically surplus Yankees, Dodge must use electricity to continue his adventures. In a kind of last stand, the brand that gave us the Viper name in the past will launch the last “last call” series for its famous models. The Charger and Challenger muscle cars have taken the lead in 2023, and it’s the Dodge Durango SUV’s turn to say goodbye to the inline V8. The 2024 Durango SRT 392 AlcHEMI is the first in the “Last Call” series that marks the final year of production of the V-8 HEMI engine, with production limited to 1,000 examples.

Nice sporty look

Visually, this Durango Last Call is distinguished by dual honeycomb exterior lines with yellow accents, satin black 20 x 10-inch wheels, SRT yellow Brembo brakes, 392 fender decals with yellow We get the same approach inside with yellow and silver stitching, SRT “392” logo embroidered on the seat backs, leather and suede steering wheel and SRT logo with white LED. The series will be available in 250 copies of each color: Diamond Black, Destroyer Grey, Vapor Gray and Knuckle White.

All HEMI V8-powered Dodge Durango models are eligible for the “last call” series, including the 710-horsepower Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat powered by the 6.2-liter HEMI Hellcat V8 engine. Like the Challenger and Charger “Last Call” models, prospective buyers will want to use Dodge’s “Horsepower Locator” to find dealerships starting in late February. Production of the Durango SRT 392 AlcHEMI will begin in April, and cars will begin arriving in select locations beginning in May. The total cost is announced at $91,390.

Summing up

For most of us, the Dodge is a very bad and angry V8 placed in aggressive, muscular and fixed cars. We’ll have to find a new catalyst based on the battery, because the hot V8 stops working, like here in the Durango “Last Call”.
