Dodge’s Next-Gen Electric Muscle Car Revealed: Specs, Price & Release Date Inside

Hot Trendy News

Dodge is rewriting the muscle-car rulebook once again. Fresh statements from the brand and recently leaked dealer documents confirm that the four-door 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona EV—originally penciled in for early 2025—has been pushed to the second half of next year, debuting as a 2026-model alongside the twin-turbo “Sixpack” gas variant. Why the pause? Insiders point to a cocktail of new U.S. tariff uncertainties on imported battery materials and a strategic decision to sync the EV’s arrival with the headline-grabbing Hurricane-powered Sixpack, giving dealers one coordinated launch window instead of two rollout waves. What isn’t changing is the hardware that has Dodge fans refreshing their browsers: • Standard all-wheel drive across every 2025-2026 Charger, whether you choose electrons or octane. • Two initial EV trims—496-hp R/T and 670-hp Scat Pack—each capable of switching to rear-drive “Drift/Donut Mode” for old-school smoky slides. • A Wet/Snow drive mode, mechanical limited-slip diff and front/rear torque-bias logic engineered to tame icy roads, validated during bitter-cold testing in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Key performance numbers (factory-quoted): – Charger Daytona Scat Pack: 670 hp, 627 lb-ft, 0-60 mph target in 3.1 s. – Charger Daytona R/T: 496 hp, 404 lb-ft, 0-60 mph target in 4.7 s. – Estimated range: 317 miles (Scat Pack), 351 miles (R/T) on the 100.5-kWh pack. Dodge has also streamlined the EV lineup, quietly dropping the R/T trim for 2026 gas models and focusing on the high-output Scat Pack to simplify ordering. For buyers who still crave piston thunder, the 550-hp 3.0-liter twin-turbo Hurricane Sixpack—also AWD—will share showroom space late next year. Pricing remains under wraps, but sources peg the 2026 Charger Daytona R/T around $61,000 and the Scat Pack near $75,000 before incentives. Orders for both the two-door 2025 models and the just-announced four-door 2026 variants are live on Dodge.com, with first deliveries slated for Q1 2025 and Q4 2025 respectively. Search interest in “2025 Dodge Charger price,” “Charger Daytona range,” and “electric muscle car AWD” has exploded over the past 24 hours, and dealers report reservation spikes in snow-belt states—proof that an all-weather EV muscle car is resonating well beyond traditional sun-belt drag racers. Bottom line: whether you plan to rip silent quarter-mile passes or carve frozen back roads, the next-gen Dodge Charger is shaping up to be the most versatile muscle car ever built—and the wait just makes the anticipation louder.
