Later this month, the S650 Mustang will make its debut at the Detroit Auto Show. Save the date: the S650 Mustang debuts on September 14, 2022 So, while we’re overly ecstatic about prototypes of the seventh-generation Mustang proving that the V8 firepower is here to stay alongside the EcoBoost turbo-four, we can’t imagine a scenario where the Blue Oval would leave its Detroit rival to carve the electric muscle path alone. If Dodge’s bet proves a winning one-and it most likely will-the brand will not only be forever remembered as a pioneer, but also build a loyal battery-powered muscle audience. Now, before anybody mentions the name of the Mustang Mach-E (here it is drag racing the Dodge Durango Hellcat) that’s been in production since 2020, allow us to point out this is a brilliant battery-powered crossover that doesn’t moonlight as a muscle car no matter what its badges tell you. But can it afford to let its Mopar rivals get a head start in the e-muscle department? And, with the upcoming 2024 S650-generation Mustang, Ford is doing just that. Sure, in the muscle car world, the public’s favorite trick is to see carmakers keeping the V8 alive for as long as possible. Picture this: it’s April 2024 and, on the 60th anniversary of the Mustang, Dodge hits the world with the first electric muscle car… as announced (the year, not the month) when recently introducing the Charger Daytona SRT Banshee concept.
