With its all-electric drivetrain delivering lightning-quick acceleration and unrivaled efficiency, the 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV is a muscle car for the future. We look at just some of the ways the Next-Gen Charger is redefining muscle.
Basics About the 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV
Everything about the Daytona EV is geared toward maximizing performance and handling while still paying homage to its roots. Its sharp lines, wide stance, hood scoops, and illuminated Fratzog badges are reminiscent of muscle machines of the 1960s.
However, the Charger’s chassis is now more rigid than before and constructed from lightweight materials to reduce weight and maximize control. Dodge simplifies the front fascia on this year’s Charger but adds its unique R-Wing aero pass-through to minimize drag and reduce lift by 30% when traveling at speed.
Unique Features
All-Wheel Drive
With its 400-volt dual-motor propulsion system, the new Charger EV is the only all-wheel drive muscle on the market. Its electrified drivetrain also helps it outperform the competition in terms of power. Opt for the R/T trim to enjoy 496 horsepower and 404 pound-feet of torque. However, upgrade to the mighty Scat Pack to unleash 670 ponies and 627 pound-feet of torque, enabling you to cover a quarter mile in just 11.5 seconds.
PowerShot Feature
Experience the true exhilaration of driving a charger by engaging the PowerShot feature. Press the steering-wheel-mounted PowerShot button and release a 10-second boost of 40 extra horsepower.
Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust
How do you get an electric vehicle to sound like a supercharged V8? You invent the world’s first Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust. Dodge’s ingenious exhaust system takes driver inputs, such as acceleration, torque, and drive mode, and uses them to replicate the purrs, roars, and guttural growls of a performance car. Whether your foot’s on the gas or you’re idling at the lights, the electric Charger will sound exactly as a muscle car should.
Hatchback Design
Practical is not typically a word used to describe a muscle car, but practical is exactly what the Daytona EV is. Its spacious 103 cubic foot passenger area allows all five passengers to stretch out, especially those at the front, who enjoy 42.6 inches of legroom.
Thanks to its hatchback design, this piece of muscle also boasts a 22.8 cubic foot trunk. Fold down the rear seatbacks and you expand the area’s volume to a class-leading 38.5 cubic feet, 133% larger than in previous Charger models.
From its aerodynamic design and practical trunk to its supercharged power and efficient drivetrain, the new Charger Daytona EV is redefining muscle cars. If you’re ready to find out more, contact us or visit Bill Snethkamp Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Highland Park, MI today.
