Dodge ‘Speed Week’ Heading for Woodward: Muscle Car Celebration, Worldwide Product Debuts Will Reveal Brand’s Performance Future

Dodge is pouring on the horsepower as the brand charges forward on its new performance path, launching a multi-day Dodge Speed Week event, August 12-20, 2022, on famed Woodward Avenue that will pack enough news to fill an entire calendar year into one week and charting the future of the Dodge brand.

“There’s no better place to unveil a new performance direction for the Dodge brand than right on Woodward Avenue in metro Detroit, with tens of thousands of our closest fans and friends,” said Tim Kuniskis, Dodge brand Chief Executive Officer – Stellantis. “We introduced our two-year Never Lift road map last year at Roadkill Nights, and this year the event will serve as the prelude to going wide open throttle on Never Lift. All I can say is the future of our brand will be on display during Dodge Speed Week, and we’re throwing open our garage doors so our fans can get a peek for themselves. It’s going to be an electric summer for Dodge.”

Dodge Speed Week will be highlighted by a three-peat of worldwide Dodge brand product unveils, scheduled to take place in front of media and invited guests on three separate nights, August 15-17, 2022. Dodge will also make its return to Dream Cruise weekend proper for the first time since 2019, staging a full brand display on Woodward Avenue.

I am very disappointed in Dodge. I have owned 4 Challengers over the years and loved them all and I was hoping to order my last one in 2023. So much for that idea. I can accept the fact that you’re going to build electric cars. Honestly I don’t really care. I can also accept the fact that your going to build a shitload and send them to dealers. But they are are going to markup the shit out of these cars leaving guys like me not able to afford one. This is BS. This is no way to treat a loyal customer. I will never buy another Dodge product again. I hope you’re stuck with every last one of them
