Concept car[edit] Concept carFront viewRear viewThe concept car version called the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT was unveiled on August 17, 2022 during the third day of the Dodge Speed Week event in Pontiac, Michigan.[8] Dodge announced that it will be produced in 2024.[9][10] It has a new powertrain called the Banshee,[11] which Dodge says acts as the new pinnacle of performance in the Brotherhood of Muscle, eclipsing the Hemi, Hellcat and Redeye engines.[12]
Said to preview the brand's electrified future, it features a Fratzonic Chambered exhaust system that can reach 126 dB, making it as loud as a Hellcat-powered Dodge.[13] The system pushes its sound through an amplifier and tuning chamber located at the rear of the vehicle.[13]
Dodge showed a red Charger Daytona SRT concept at SEMA in November 2022, including a Bugatti-like speed key for increasing power up to 670 hp (679 PS; 500 kW).[14][15]
The concept car appeared alongside the DeLorean Alpha5 in the Fast X movie.[16]
Production version[edit] Production versionRear viewInteriorOn March 5, 2024, the Dodge Charger was previewed in 2-door and 4-door forms, with the 2-door slated to go on sale in 2024 and the 4-door in 2025. [17] The Charger Daytona will be ailable in two versions, R/T and Scat Pack with 496 and 670 hp (503 and 679 PS; 370 and 500 kW), respectively, from two electric motors. Both come standard with all-wheel drive and a 100.5 kilowatt-hour battery.
On August 7, 2024, Stellantis announced the price of the car to be $59,595 for the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T, and $73,190 for the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack and both models would qualify for a $7,500 federal tax credit if leased.[18]
The first batch of Charger Daytona models arrived at dealerships in January 2025.[19]
Dodge Charger Sixpack engine bayIn August 2023, it was reported that the production version of the Charger will be ailable with a gasoline inline-six Hurricane engine, while the range topping Daytona will be fully electric powered.[20]
The Charger Sixpack will be powered by the 3.0-liter twin-turbo gasoline inline-six Hurricane engine. The engine offered for the Charger R/T at 420 hp (426 PS; 313 kW) and for the Charger Scat Pack at 550 hp (558 PS; 410 kW).[21]
In the Charger Sixpack range, the Charger Scat Pack is to be released first, in late 2025, with the Charger R/T to release in the first half of 2026.[22] The two-door Scat Pack is to begin deliveries in December 2025.[23]
In October 2025 Dodge announced the Hustle Stuff Drag Pack, a drag car with a 5.7-liter supercharged Hemi V8. Only 50 units are to be produced.[24][25]
