EV Channels Review
The reviewer expresses significant dissatisfaction with the overall EV ownership experience, despite a personal fondness for the 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack itself. Key criticisms revolve around the prohibitive cost of EVs, including higher upfront prices, insurance premiums, and registration fees, which are exacerbated by state-specific taxes. The charging infrastructure is deemed unreliable and insufficient, leading to long wait times and inconsistent charging speeds affected by weather. Range anxiety is also a concern, particularly in cold weather. The reviewer highlights the inconvenience and time cost associated with charging compared to refueling a gasoline car. While acknowledging the instant power and performance of EVs, the reviewer concludes that the current EV market, burdened by these issues and lacking in support, is not a viable or cost-effective option for most consumers. The reviewer suggests that a range-extender version of the Charger would significantly mitigate these problems.
