2024 DODGE CHARGER DAYTONA IN-DEPTH TOUR! PLUS 4-DOOR AND GAS RETURNS!

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona marks a significant shift, embracing an all-electric powertrain while retaining its iconic muscle car appeal. The reviewer highlights the impressive design, which closely mirrors the concept, and praises the practical additions like the large hatch and frunk, offering more utility than typical sports coupes. Performance is a key focus, with the R/T delivering 496 hp (with Stage 1 upgrade) and the Scat Pack boasting 670 hp, making it faster than previous Hellcat models. The introduction of AWD as standard across these trims enhances all-weather capability, while features like drift and donut modes promise engaging driving dynamics. The interior impresses with a large 16-inch digital gauge cluster and a 12.3-inch infotainment system, though some elements are pre-production. Dodge prioritizes performance and style over maximum range, with the R/T estimated at 317 miles and the Scat Pack around 260-270 miles. The reviewer notes the availability of a 4-door version and a 2025 internal combustion engine (ICE) variant with a 3.0L twin-turbo inline-six, offering up to 550 hp. Overall, the Charger Daytona is presented as a compelling, versatile evolution of the Charger nameplate, successfully blending electric performance with classic design and practicality.
