Dodge Charger Daytona EV gains NACS, but at a higher price

Dodge is taking orders for the 2027 Charger Daytona Scat Pack AWD, packing up to 670 hp with a 0–60 of about 3.3 seconds. The big change is a standard North American Charging System (NACS) port, plus a J1772‑to‑NACS adapter, touted to open access to thousands of chargers (the claim of 29,000+ chargers is debated by readers). The car retains its performance features and adds drive modes like Drift/Donut, Launch Control, and a PowerShot boost, plus interior tech upgrades. Pricing climbs from the 2026 model to $72,495 for the base Scat Pack ($72,995 with four doors) and $77,490 for the Scat Pack Plus ($77,990 four‑door), with a claimed range up to 267 miles. Orders are open and deliveries are expected in Q3 2026. Some commenters dispute the charger access figure, noting adapters can already reach most networks.

Dodge Charger Daytona EV: The Future of Muscle Cars with a V8 Roar

Dodge has introduced its first electric Charger muscle car, designed to maintain the brand's traditional look, drive, and sound. The new Charger offers a choice between a battery-electric version and an upcoming inline-six gasoline engine, but no V8 option. The electric Charger Daytona features a modern design inspired by the classic 1968 model, with a spacious interior and advanced infotainment system. It comes in two variants: the R/T and the Scat Pack, both offering impressive performance but differing in power and range. While the Charger excels on the road, it faces challenges on the track due to its weight. The vehicle also features a synthetic exhaust sound system to mimic traditional engine noise.
