Why did they get rid of it in the first place? I drove one of the i6 turbos and it was seriously underwhelming in terms of power.

cool it

>>28525657 (OP)
Eurotardation ownership coupled with moronic "leadership" that got high on their own farts.
Not that I expect much from the new crew either who were basically told by the board of director "holy shit! we're dyin here! just reset it!" but will still prob introduce some gay as fuck hybrid bullshit and be surprised.
They had a money printing machine with the Chally versions and they decided to sacrifice it on the altar of "muh euro7 we gutta save teh planet!!"

Based. Long live pushrod V8s

>>28525657 (OP)
It was the previous stupid CEO that decided to obey with Biden policies, climate change politics. The previous CEO thought that V8 engine was bad and outdated, too much fuel consuming engine causing too much emissions, Thankfully that idiot cEO has been replaced with smarter CEO. Though we can only hope that the HEMI tick issues has been fixed.

>>28525668
>>28525675
ahh that explains it. Did not realize the CEO got canned.

>HEMI tick
what is that?

>>28525680
>what is that?
Chrysler doing a chrysler and making the most reliable engine layout known to man (high displacmeent pushrod v8) prone to eating its own valvetrain

>>28525657 (OP)
>Why did they get rid of it in the first place?
so they could bring it back

>>28525680
>what is that
Avoid excessive idling and you’ll never know.

>>28525680
The "Hemi tick" in some Hemi engines is often caused by oil starvation at the lifters, particularly during idle or low RPM situations. This occurs because the lifters rely on splash lubrication from the camshaft, and at low engine speeds, there isn't enough oil being splashed to adequately lubricate the lifters, leading to potential wear and a ticking noise.

br/o/s
Were so back aren't we

What the FUCK is a hemi tick and what do they eat?

to make up the differences of corporate average emissions footprint the 1.2 3-cylinder Puretech™ engine will be replaced by a much more efficient 0.8 litre 2-cylinder unit which is planned to debut in the newest full-size Peugeot executive sedan in 2027.

>>28525707
So basically the e-torque(48 volt mild hybrid system) helps newer Hemi engines to last longer because it prevents engine from idling too long.

>>28525713
Oil, apparently.

>>28525657 (OP)
No shit, the prior CEO and lesdership did not understand why Americans like V8 and tried to make all stellantis brands EU compliant. Carlos Tevares litterally said that Alfa Romeo was the crown jewel of stellantis

>>28525707
>>28525686
Thank you for explaining

>>28525800
>Carlos Tevares litterally said that Alfa Romeo was the crown jewel of stellantis

That statement alone tells you everything you need to know about the competency of their former CEO.
top kek

>>28525800
>Carlos Tevares litterally said that Alfa Romeo was the crown jewel of stellantis
To further show how out of touch he was, it was immediately apparent that Ram and Jeep, and to a lesser extent Dodge, were going to be the tail wagging the Stellantis dog. They should just bow to the inevitable and rename it Chrysler Corp. already.

>>28525707
seems like you could fix this by just having it idle at 950rpm and running 10w30 like every other v8 for the past 80 fuckin years

>>28525834
I always hear how you should replace the stock oil pump with the high volume aftermarket to fix it.

>>28525834
Gotta remember CAFE screwed everything, including the Hemi. Especially after 2012.

>>28525680
>what is that?
something widely misunderstood and vastly overblown
>t. police auction charger owner w/ 5k idle hours and no tick

>>28525821
>immediately apparent that Ram and Jeep, and to a lesser extent Dodge, were going to be the tail wagging the Stellantis dog
100%. RAM sells 400k trucks a year, Jeep sells 600k a year. Alfa sells less than 10k cars. What a fucking joke. Eurocucks are so retarded and delusional.

>>28525837
>hv/hp oil pump
this is fucking retarded just run a differen't weight oil and or a higher rpm, I have heard bench racers saying this shit for years and it's never the way to fix oil pressure issues.

>>28525842
>erm you can't do that unless you pay le fine!!
>OK
it was pretty funny that for the past 2 decades Dodge/Ram made a shitload of hemi's anyway and just paid the fine. CAFE is defunct now (removed fines was included in the Big Beautiful Bill that just passed) so th future is looking bright for hemi's again.

>>28525657 (OP)
**** yeah! American muscle, baby!

>>28526624
Post your EV xister!

>>28526624
Why would they bother. The 5.0 coyote is DOHC and makes less power and gets the same MPG as the 6.4L Apache.

>>28526761
because it produces more hp and better efficiency and every other manufacturer is doing it and has for 25 years

>and gets the same MPG as the 6.4L Apache.
no

>>28526776
>5.0 coyote
>480 HP 18 mpg

Yes. Cope, Sneed etc.

>>28526776
Only difference is Chally takes premium. These are proper government numbers too

>>28526851

Sneed.

But leftypol trannies told me gasoline and diesel engines were dead and EVs were the future.

>>28528294
They're correct*

*only if the government forces it to happen completely artificially

>>28528294
The current lithium ion gen of EVs were propped up by a large scale tech race between the US and China, that Europe joined in late and went overboard like they always do. US realized that it was a waste of money as EVs just became a race to the bottom, while China is desperatly trying to sell as many rotting EVs as possible to third worlders, while Europe still believes it can win the tech race if they just stay retarded for longer.

>>28525657 (OP)
>Why did they get rid of it in the first place?
To use FOMO as a marketing strategy because the burgers are stupid enough to keep falling for it every time.

>>28528448
You're a dumbfuck. They crashed Challenger/Charger sales by 95% making it EV only.

holy shit is this real? I thought as a shitbox driver I was always losing at least a little money on gas compared to newer after driving my moms chevy 12 for a bit but I'm pretty sure my civic gets better mpg than every one of these cars.

>>28528636
a better comparison would be directly driving the 75 mph highway loop some car mags do
its possible that there's data on that but I dont care
pushrods are shit and you are shit for defending them in modern vehicles

Oddly enough, the Civic will be involved 4x fewer felonies.

Not true, mexicans love civics.

Since the majority of Civic owners will self deport in the coming months, just to be safe, Dealerships should run a drug sniffing dog around a used car at the point of sale.

sign tappers won

New Coke was the strategy used when what Coca Cola needed was a distraction from the taste change of sugar to corn syrup. New Coke sucks oh my god you have to bring back the real coke! They were always going to. And the "real coke" they "brought back" was corn syrup, and laboratory chemicals replacing some of the natural ingrediants.

Dodge "cancelling" and then "bringing back" a v8 is the same shit. Suckers are gonna be paying premium for it too.

>>28525657 (OP)
Of course. They literally have no other options. As a reminder, the brand that sold so many Chargers and Challengers that they have become a staple of American roads currently offers one (1) car. An electric "muscle car" that costs $60,000, is considerably slower than the entry level performance Teslas, and has an "exhaust" note that sounds like C3PO farting. That is the only car they sell. No wild fire-breathing 999hp Challenger Baal Edition, just a worse Tesla.
I believe I read an article showing that sales for the Daytona were so piss poor that MY2023 Chargers and Challengers outsold it in Q1 2024. Might have the years wrong I don't know, but the point is that they went all in on EVs and got a predictable results.

ain't those just slightly modified wedge heads ?

>>28531928
Are you asking why Hemi is a Chrysler brand name like Kleenex is to nose tissues, when every engine maker and their mother have been advancing the combustion chamber design well past 1960s hemisphericals since...you know...the 1960s?

Yeah.

>>28531928
>ain't those just slightly modified wedge heads ?
While they may not be actual hemispherical chambers they're closer to that than Wedges. It's a crescent shape similar to that of the Boss 429 "Blue Crescent" heads. Also note the valve position is towards the intake and towards the exhaust while a wedge has them side-by-side

>>28531928
wedge head chamber

>>28531935
seems to have been a boomerisim to mention "true hemi" lol, oblate spheroidal does not meme so well.
>>28531949

If you goal is the fastest "holy shit I never trained to be an astronaut" acceleration possible, then yes gasoline is dead.
Speed queens will find their nirvana on all-electric powertrains.
If you "just like the sound of combustion" or "just like to row my own gears", you are not a speed enthusiast, and that's OK.

only black people drive the chally and will rob you for it
