MOPAR Back for SEMA 2024

[wayoflife]

After ditching SEMA last year, I had my doubts whether Stellantis/MOPAR would ever come back again but it looks like they will for 2024 and I'm glad for it. Here are a few pics of what they will be bringing to the show.

First up, this is what they will be showing off for Jeep, the Gladiator Rubicon High Top Concept and it "will showcase the newest custom piece from the design team at Mopar and Jeep Performance Parts. The Mopar ILLUMINAT3 off-road lighting accessory is a pivoting lightbar concept with patented innovative features allowing the outer lights to hinge and rotate around the roof, illuminating all areas around the vehicle."




For RAM, they will have a couple of trucks on display including this 2500 Power Wagon Concept

This is a MOPARized 1500 RHO that they'll be bringing too.

Of course, EV is what Stellantis is really what they're all about these days and they'll also be showing off what they call, the “Power-Couple” which is a "themed display features a matching metallic blue and dual white striped Ram REV alongside a modified version of the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Banshee concept." And I have to say, while I'm no fan of EVs, this Charger is just gorgeous!!


In the line of EVs, they will also have this 1967 Plymouth GTX Electromod Concept on display.

And, while the EV thing is all the rage at Stellantis, I am happy to see that they will still be making and offering some crate engines or at least for now.

This is the all new 1,000-horsepower, 950-lb.-ft. of torque Hellephant A30 426 Supercharged Crate HEMI® engine that they will be showing off.


And, this is the Drag Pak 354 Supercharged Crate HEMI® engine they will have at the show too.

Put that 426 in the Plymouth. Oof

The rams are cool. That Jeep lightbar is god awful. Just shows they pay attention to exactly nothing that Jeep owners want or use.

these concepts have to make Mark Allen cry at night:

Some decals and seat covers don’t make it a concept.

That’s sad they destroyed the Plymouth, but looks good otherwise.

 

[Disciple Off Road]

They need a new design team….who actually thought that light bar thing was a good idea? Haha and, that poor Plymouth….missed opportunity for sure.

 

[HighwayTrout]

I’d pay to stand in line just for the opportunity to kick the basterds square in the dick who thought that was a good idea for that Plymouth.

 

[DirtHeadDavis]

That Jeep lightbar is terrible, the 2500's orange accents throw me off but is otherwise cool, the RHO is cool but essentially stock with a side decal, the Charger does at least look good, the Plymouth looks gorgeous but is gay, and the crate motors are a good sign too - at least for now.

Overall happy they're back but can't say we didn't expect them to not be underwhelming.

 

[Ddays]

**Yawn**

 

[cosmokenney]

I wonder if one of those crate motors will fit in my 2 door JL when the Pentastar valvetrain eats itself?

 

[jeeeep]

with sales at all-time lows, not surprised they've returned to SEMA; this is the best DEI designers can come up with???

I hope there's a crate motor in the Charger but it's likely EV gayed up, forcing you to buy the crate motor, and to whoever came up with the idea to destroy that Plymouth

When they start the Charger at SEMA, will it go "meow, hisss, hissss... I say hisssssssssss"

Looked up why they chose the Stellantis name....
"stellantis" is the genitive, singular form, male and neutral, of "stellans" - or, also, the present active participe of "stello", in that case still meaning "of (he/that who) brights with stars"

Exactly what they've done to the Jeep brand, neutered it.

I don’t know, looks those lightbars will interfere with my new extendable visor roof! Definitely a nope from me.

Honestly though, none of this interests me. Hopefully they’ll bring more vehicles to the show that showcase more valuable features and changes that are cutting edge.

Light bar is gay, I’ve always liked Power Wagons but that’s nothing special, TRX is meh, and def unfortunate for the the Plymouth

 

[thrash66]

The decals on the power wagon remind me of the vehicles in Jurassic World.

I’m excited to see the video coverage of everything

 

[TrailHunter]

Looks like Pat (he/her) from accounting is running the Design Team this year.

 

[Bullwinckle]

Like everyone I'm not a fan of the light bars. The RHO I like but maybe its just the Mopar blue accents. lol

I'm part of the Jeep focus group and get surveyed on a regular basis about their new ideas. That goofy light bar was never mentioned

I don’t know. I think they do. But are off by a decade. Remember when light bars were on every single damn jeep?

Honestly the light bar is like the rest of em. Gayer than monkeypox and ugly as sin. But again. They all are. Being that this one swivels and is a bit more useful is kinda neat.
