High-performance vehicles are always fun to drive. They’re fast, powerful, and they’re simply full of feature. Ever since I started driving, I’ve been in love with muscle cars. Their design, power, and speed are things that every driver would want to have for their rides. Unfortunately, muscle cars fail when it comes to one department and that’s fuel efficiency. In fact most models chug fuel at such a high rate that their popularity drastically declined at the start of the 1970s. Then again, it seems like that Dodge wants to change muscle cars by offering their new concept car called the Dodge ZEO.
Basically, the Dodge ZEO’s name stands for Zero Emissions Operation. As its name implies, it really doesn’t emit anything, because it’s a muscle car and electric car rolled into one. Basically, the Dodge ZEO is an electric car that performs like your good, old muscle car. Powered by a 200 kilowatt electric motor, it’s strong enough to power the vehicle from 0-60 mph in less than 6 seconds. Aside from that, its motor is built to provide it by as much as 268 horsepower as well. Compared to other electric cars that simply lack in power, the Dodge ZEO has a 64 kilowatt-hour lithium battery pack that can give it a 250-mile driving range. All you need to do to keep it in working in optimum condition is to keep it charged fully.
When I first saw the Dodge ZEO, I could not help but marvel at how the guys from Dodge can give it so much power and speed without even relying on gasoline. In short, the vehicle is just one fantastic vehicle that everyone should take a look at. When it comes to exteriors, the Dodge ZEO boasts of a 23-inch steel alloy wheels that are indestructible by rust and corrosion. Its windshield meanwhile, arches up from the long and well-designed hood. In short, you would like every thing about the design of this eco-friendly muscle car from Dodge.
The door of the Dodge ZEO is built to look like scissors. Because of that, there is unlimited access to the interior. Meanwhile, it will take quite a while before the Dodge ZEO will be launched by Dodge. Nevertheless, I really think that this vehicle will change how muscle cars should be in the future.
