The unveiling of the new-gen Dodge Charger earlier this year has inspired multiple rendering artists to develop all sorts of digital illustrations based on the first-ever electric muscle car (ICE power is available).
Most CGIs revolved around the 2025 Dodge Charger, imagining it with various add-ons, like a widebody kit and other exterior accouterments, fresh wheels, and new colors. Some pixel manipulators have gone as far as portraying it with a V8 under the hood, and that's wishful thinking, as the automaker has made it crystal clear that it won't make another V8-powered muscle car.

This leaves Ford's S650 Mustang as the sole V8-powered survivor in its class, and it looks like the Blue Oval wants to cash in on it as much as possible. After all, several derivatives are in the work, including the extreme GTD and a brand-new Shelby GT500 that's said to debut probably next year (if the rumors are correct). GM dropped the Chevy Camaro, and only this company's high-ranking execs know anything about its successor.

Now, we've ventured far enough from the main topic of this story, which is the brand-new 2025 Dodge Magnum. Don't head over to the auto marque's official website to place an order, as you won't find it there. In fact, you will only find these images on Digimods Design's YouTube channel, as this artist is behind them. Yep, the model is as fake as the new Charger's spirit.

Some design traits at the front and rear, like the lighting signature, grille, and so on, came straight from the 2025 Dodge Charger (Daytona). Others, like the profile, roofline, side windows, and part of the tailgate, were inspired by the real Dodge Magnum, which came to life at the Brampton facility, Canada, between 2004 and 2008, utilizing the same nuts and bolts as the era's Charger, Chrysler 300, and Mercedes E-Class.

You don't need to be a connoisseur to tell that such a model would feature the same powertrain family as the latest-gen Charger. This would include the electric options and the gasoline-fed derivatives that feature a 3.0L twin-turbo straight-six in different states of tune. Thus, its driving dynamics would be almost the same, and it would obviously benefit from a larger cargo area compared to the four-door model that joins the coupe.

Nevertheless, since station wagons, especially mainstream ones, are no longer popular in the Western world, regardless of how powerful they are, you can rest assured that Dodge won't inject a huge sum of money into such a project. A brand-new Dodge Magnum won't happen, not in this body style, anyway, yet at least you can admire it in the numerous unofficial renderings that made their way to the World Wide Web recently. So, do you like this one?
