Get Ready for the Electrified Future of Dodge

For decades, the Dodge Charger has been synonymous with raw power, tire-smoking burnouts, and that unmistakable muscle-car growl. Now, Dodge is rewriting the script. Enter the Dodge Charger Daytona EV—a car that takes everything we love about classic American muscle and injects it with cutting-edge electric performance. This isn’t just another EV. It’s the world’s first all-electric muscle car, and it’s built to thrill. Let’s break down what makes it a true game-changer. Head to Preston Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Wilmington to shop more of our EVs.

Powertrain and Performance

The 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona is built on Stellantis’s STLA Large EV platform and equipped with a robust 100.5 kWh lithium-ion battery. This power source drives a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive system available in two configurations:

Dodge Charger Daytona R/T Trim: Produces 456 horsepower, which can be increased to 496 horsepower with the Direct Connection Stage 1 upgrade.

Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack Trim: Generates 590 horsepower, with output rising to 670 horsepower when enhanced with the Stage 2 upgrade.

Both trims deliver exceptional torque, up to 627 lb.-ft.,providing immediate acceleration that rivals the performance of traditional V8 muscle cars.

The Sound of Muscle Reimagined

What’s a muscle car without that iconic roar? Dodge thought of that, too. The Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust pumps out a simulated growl through external speakers—loud, throaty, and undeniably Charger. Want to fly under the radar? Flip on Stealth Mode and enjoy a quiet, EV-like glide.

Range Meets Rage

Speed is great, but range matters too:

  • Dodge Charger Daytona R/T: Up to 317 miles per charge.
  • Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack: Around 260 miles per charge.

And with DC fast-charging, you can jump from 20–80% in under 30 minutes. Perfect for road trips, or quick pit stops before your next quarter-mile run.

Aerodynamics & Design

Dodge didn’t just electrify the engine; they reimagined the shape. The Dodge Charger Daytona’s R-Wing front aero pass-through creates extra downforce while keeping that menacing muscle stance. It’s functional, futuristic, and unapologetically bold.

The Future Is Bright (and Fast)

The Dodge Charger Daytona EV is here to prove a point: electric doesn’t mean boring. It means faster, smarter, and still loud enough to wake the neighbors. For muscle fans, it’s the best of both worlds—a new chapter in American performance history that keeps the Charger spirit alive, louder (and quieter) than ever.
