“The electrified 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack delivers Charger Hellcat Redeye levels of performance and announces its presence through the world’s first Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust, while Hurricane engine-powered Dodge Charger SIXPACK models will give the Brotherhood of Muscle a gas option that produces better horsepower and torque numbers than the outgoing 5.7- and 6.4-liter HEMI engines,” said Tim Kuniskis, Dodge brand chief executive officer – Stellantis. “The next generation of Dodge muscle has arrived.”

The numbers on the new EV are impressive. The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack, with its 670 horsepower, will cover the quarter-mile in 11.5 seconds (estimated) and is still unsurpassed in quarter-mile elapsed time (ET) of any muscle car.

The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack and 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T will be the first all-electric vehicles from the Dodge brand. The vehicles will be built on the STLA Large Frame at the Windsor, Ontario, Assembly plant.
