"    Photo by Chris Cantle  The last brand realignment at Chrysler was a confusing. SRT emerged as a standalone brand with a single car, the new Viper, in addition to its assortment of hi-po specials for Jeep, Chrysler, and Dodge. Meanwhile, a lot of volume-product overlap remained at Dodge and Chrysler. But evolution is good, and the forces inside Fiat Chrysler Automobiles have detailed new changes as part of the organization&amp;#039;s five-year plan. The big news is this: Dodge becomes a performance brand, and SRT is part of it, supplying the mightiest version of every Dodge vehicle. Here&amp;#039;s what the future holds:    Photo by Chris Cantle  First up, the Viper returns to the Dodge brand. Expect a refresh, but not a new engine\u2014it&amp;#039;ll retain its signature V10. We&amp;#039;re also getting a Dart SRT fitted with a high-output turbo and all-wheel drive. The Challenger and Charger SRT models are finally getting those Hellcat engines we&amp;#039;ve been promised, and they&amp;#039;re sticking to the current rear-drive setup. New stuff arrives in the form of a D-segment crossover, likely called the Journey and possibly derived from the Jeep Cherokee, utilizing the aforementioned AWD turbo powertrain and Fiat-sourced underpinnings. An as-yet unnamed B-segment sedan and hatch joins the lineup, too. No SRT version of the latter is indicated, but we can&amp;#039;t imagine a scenario in which an ultra-hot hatch doesn&amp;#039;t eventually make the team. The shift to a performance orientation means some Dodge nameplates have to die, so the bell tolls for the redundant Avenger sedan and Grand Caravan minivan in 2016. If you want a midsize sedan or a minivan after that, visit your Chrysler dealer for a 200 or a Town &amp;amp;amp; Country. Lastly, Dodge&amp;#039;s announcement acknowledges that the current Dart isn&amp;#039;t a perfect fit for this revised brand approach. Expect a 2016 mid-cycle refresh that focuses more on performance, with a stouter drivetrain and improved handling.
