"If a production Charger was made, it would, like the concept, keep the LX’s independent multilink rear suspension. Challenger would probably be V8 only — but also noted that this may depend on whether the Challenger would be made as a mass-market vehicle, á la Charger, or as a 10,000 cars/year specialty model. If the former, a V6 would help it to compete with the cheaper Mustang; if the latter, only V8s would make sense.

Some things would have to change to make it economically feasible and real-world driveable; the aerodynamics have apparently not been tested, and the shape would probably change a bit. The wheelbase alteration would add considerably to the cost of production, and the width probably would hurt as well. Certainly, the Hemi would have a standard air filter, catalytic converters, and muffler, and probably the six-speed stick would be sadly unavailable."

I really hope this is just speculation.
