While Dodge and Chevy have recently ended production of their iconic muscle cars, Ford is driving the two-door V8 dream forward with the release of the high-performance Mustang GTD.

This beast boasts a supercharged 5.2L V8 engine targeting over 800 horsepower and boasts a Carbon Series package, making a bold statement just as Ferrari secured victory at Le Mans.

Despite the American muscle car market seeing some contraction, it’s not all doom and gloom. Let’s take a closer look at what Ford, Dodge, and Chevy each have to offer gearheads.

Eager car fans yearn for the return of a Chevrolet Camaro, but artist Hycade isn’t waiting for official pronouncements. This digital designer, known for his passion for gasoline-powered vehicles, has revamped the current Camaro with his vision of a modern muscle car.

Hycade’s conceptual Camaro boasts a restyled front and rear, an imposing widebody kit, along with lowered height and muscular wheels. The design hints at a powerful V8 engine with prominent front air vents and dual exhaust pipes.

While this is just a concept, a gasoline-powered seventh-generation Camaro might be all that remains. However, hycade’s design targets a different market than the upcoming electric Dodge Charger Daytona.

This virtual Camaro appears to challenge the Ford Mustang GT and Dark Horse, as well as the soon-to-be-released Dodge Charger Sixpack H.O.
