EV Channels Review

The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona ordering process is detailed, revealing a "First Call" VIP experience for early buyers, including a two-day Radford Racing School visit and welcome kit, contingent on ordering by October 31st. However, the video highlights significant "catches." For 2024, RT models include a Stage 1 upgrade (496 HP) and Scat Packs include a Stage 2 upgrade (670 HP) as standard, but these will be optional paid upgrades in 2025. A major point of contention is the $7,500 federal tax credit, which is only available via lease, not purchase. Furthermore, buyers cannot truly "configure" their desired vehicle; instead, they must choose from 17 pre-configured packages (7 for RT, 10 for Scat Pack), with limited color and interior options for 2024. The "horsepower locator" system is criticized for its complexity and potential for dealer markups due to limited allocations. The reviewer expresses frustration with the ordering system, deeming it a headache that primarily benefits dealers.
