Dodge has something scary in the works.
It will reveal the last V8-powered muscle car it will ever build at a special event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway on March 20.
The automaker is discontinuing the current Challenger coupe and Charger sedan at the end of 2023 and replacing them with the all-electric Charger Daytona SRT.

The wraps were originally supposed to come off of it last fall, but the engine being developed for it kept blowing up during testing.
