The Dodge Charger Daytona is a battery electric performance car from Dodge. It sits in the muscle car segment. Body style is a two door coupe with a focus on straight line speed and high output variants.
Battery capacity varies by trim. Range estimates typically fall between 400 and 510 km depending on wheel size and power level. The platform supports DC fast charging. High power chargers recover a large portion of range in under 30 minutes. AC home charging remains standard for overnight use.
Pricing places the Charger Daytona in the upper performance EV bracket. It targets drivers moving from traditional V8 muscle cars to electric power. Within Dodge’s lineup, it sits alongside future electrified models under the Dodge brand strategy. Alternatives include the Ford performance EV offerings and Tesla performance sedans. Compared with Tesla vehicles, the Charger Daytona prioritizes muscle car design and sound simulation rather than efficiency metrics.
