But later, Ralph Gilles, SRT Boss denies Barracuda revival rumors, as reported by Autoevolution, on Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Alhtough he admits the Barracuda is a "romantic" and a "very storied" name, Gilles stresses that such a vehicle would be significantly different and smaller from the existing vehicles in the SRT lineup - Dodge Challenger, Charger and Chrysler 300. Bringing it back would require a new platform, which wouldn't make much financial sense..*** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | AUTOEVOLUTION | LEFT LANE]
