You'll be forgiven for not having heard about the TV show
Defiance - it actually hasn't aired its first episode yet. The new science fiction show about an alien war against Earth in the near future seems like a perfect fit for the SyFy channel, and, apparently one that
Dodge saw as a slick marketing opportunity for its
Charger sedan.
Here in
Chicago, Dodge has given a large corner of its show stand to the
Defiance Charger, a car that won't be skipped by any
Mad Max fans in attendance at this year's show. The Charger boasts one hell of a gnarly patina under a confusingly welded cage of tube steel, as well as window bars, a grille guard in front, and big, knobby truck tires.

Look for the Charger to make its star turn in Defiance when the series premieres on SyFy on April 15 at 9:00 PM EST. Also,
there's said to be a Defiance video game in the works, too, so you may get a chance to steer the burly Dodge for yourself. Find a trailer for the show,
below, as well.
