Have you ever felt like the Hellcat 6.2-liter V8 has too little weight to carry around in the Dodge Charger and Challenger, or even in the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk? No problem, the Mopar people have you covered with the scale destroyers that are the 2021 Ram 1500 TRX and the Dodge Durango Hellcat. 6 photos
When it comes to a drag race between the super-truck and the uber-SUV, the only question that needs to be asked is why not? . After all, these slabs of America pack in excess of 1,400 hp combined.
Then again, we re here to deliver some answers, as a Durango Hellcat and a T-Rex recently got together for a spicy night of competitive sprinting. Speaking of which, please remember to steer clear of such street fights and head over to the drag strip when you feel like racing.

The two generations of the Land Rover Defender we ve received to date are separated by almost four decades, so it was only natural for the design to evolve. And while we have yet to come across an aficionado who doesn t believe the newcomer s styling is a fitting tribute to the early 1980s original, there will always be enthusiasts who prefer to stay off the beaten path, visually speaking. And the rendering we have here delivers just such a solution, portraying a remastered incarnation of the old Landie. 6 photos
We re dealing with a package that oozes ruggedness, and the fact that it builds on the image of the Defender 90 short wheelbase model, which was initially labeled as the Ninety, helps with the eye candy.

One of the greatest assets of a classic muscle car is that it doesn t need much to redefine its visual identity, so you can make it appealing to a very specific audience with minimal mods, at least on a visual level. Case in point with the virtual build portrayed in the rendering we have here. 8 photos
We re feasting our eyes on a 3D incarnation of a 1971 Plymouth Barracuda, part of the third-generation Barracuda, which is one of the most coveted machines of its age. That s because the generation change meant the nameplate left the basic Valiant underpinnings behind, sharing a platform with the then-new Dodge Challenger and adopting extrovert styling.

With the current Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro in the final part of their life cycles, both their makers and aftermarket developers have had plenty of time to refine the formula. And the real-world results involve plenty of modded examples that can easily put on a show, as is the case with the duo delivering the race that brought us here. 5 photos
The Golden Bowtie and the Blue Oval toys both come with the ten-speed automatic gearbox their makers co-developed (each company produces its own version), so, as far as the transmission is concerned, there s a level playing field.
It was 2018 when Mercedes-Benz introduced the first all-new generation of the G-Class since the 1979 original. The newcomer received a monumental boost in terms of road manners, albeit while maintaining its rugged nature. We can think of another SUV from the stratospheric league that entered production that year, namely the Lamborghini Urus. And it seems like someone has decided to mix the two, albeit only in the virtual world, at least for the time being.
