2017 ‘Dodge Barracuda Price and Specs

To start with the design of the 2017 Dodge Barracuda, we immediately see some familiar exterior elements. We see the highly recognizable elements that were taken from the legendary 1971 model and we see that they have been given a modernistic twist on them, making this a highly interesting choice to go with. The front fascia adds a retro vibe to it but has been made to be slightly bigger compared to before. It is also slightly taller than the Plymouth original and does come with a whole ne set of new LED shaped headlights. But the overall length of the car has been shorten and this modern version has taken a few inches off the top.

But this has been done in order to improve the specs of the car and the performance, so with a shorter body comes a lighter body as the lightweight materials and carbon additions truly make a difference. The estimation is that this new version has been made a total of 300 ponds lighter and it makes for much better performance rates of the car and driving ability. All in all, the vehicle is much more impressive aesthetically speaking. The shell of the care is a lot bigger and much more masculine and with the added twin exhaust pipes to the back it turns on the aggressiveness even more.

Interior

The interior of the 2017 Dodge Barracuda has an equally impressive combination of traditional and modern elements as the outside of the car has. The classic parts and the new ones give us a very vogue-like cabin. The upholstery is pretty handsome looking with the stylish black fabric that goes with the metal accents is a great choice for the car and brings out the best in the latest Barracuda model.

There are a few exciting pieces of news related to the engine options for the 2017 Dodge Barracuda model. The base one will certainly be the 6.0L V8 engine which can produce 425 hp and also is going to come with a 5 speed manual transmission. But we also manage to get a much more powerful option in the 6.2L V8 engine which is capable of going beyond 700 hp. Further engine possibilities that have been rumored are also the 3.6 l V6 liter Pentastar, 2.4L Tigershark and a 6.2 L Hellcat, but we are still waiting for these to be confirmed. But the thing that has been confirmed is the base option ahs an EPA rating of 15 mpg in the city and 19 mpg on the highway with a top speed of around 167 mph.
