The new Charger, led by the world\u2019s quickest and most powerful muscle car in the 670-horspower Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack, is also Green Car Journal\u2019s 2025 Performance Green Car of the Year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Dodge Charger Daytona lives up to the brand\u2019s storied muscle car legacy with its striking design and brute power at the ready,\u201d said Ron Cogan, editor and publisher of Green Car Journal and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.GreenCarJournal.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GreenCarJournal.com<\/a>. \u201cWhat\u2019s magical is that it delivers its impressive performance through the inherent efficiency of zero-emission electric drive as it addresses the need to reduce carbon emissions and promote environmental achievement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack, packing 627 lb.-ft. of torque, reaches 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds while running the quarter-mile in an estimated 11.5 seconds, with the Charger Daytona R\/T model producing 496 horsepower and 404 lb.-ft. of torque. The Charger Daytona features an all-electric, 400-volt dual motor system delivering muscle car performance through standard all-wheel drive, a mechanical limited slip differential and the world\u2019s first patent-pending Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust system, which shatters preconceptions of a typical battery-electric vehicle with a signature rumble and tactile sound wave output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe all-new Dodge Charger Daytona is a game changer not just because it\u2019s an electric vehicle, but because it\u2019s a better muscle car,\u201d said Matt McAlear, Dodge brand chief executive officer \u2013 Stellantis. \u201cFor the Dodge brand, electrification is simply a means to drive performance for our enthusiasts. The new Charger Daytona delivers more horsepower than the outgoing models, wrapped in iconic exterior and interior design, and with a sound that is unlike anything you\u2019ve ever heard from a battery-electric vehicle. The all-new Dodge Charger represents the Dodge brand\u2019s muscle car of the future and the brand\u2019s first multi-energy muscle car lineup, with electric and gasoline options for customers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As the first all-electric vehicles from the Dodge brand, the Charger Daytona Scat Pack and Charger Daytona R\/T also qualify for a full $7,500 federal tax credit when leased.
