Back in 1900, the Dodge Brothers Motor Company was founded. Then, in 1914, they sold their first vehicle. It was only the beginning of the company’s legacy. For 125 years now, Dodge has been building a reputation for style, power and performance. They’ve made cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans and full-size vans. Whether vehicle buyers are looking for workhorses, family vehicles, muscle cars or something sporty, Dodge has something that will meet their needs and exceed their expectations
The Charger first came into play in 1966. Its amazing power, unique design and distinct features ultimately propelled it to fame. It was made from 1966 through 1978. After halting production for a time, Dodge brought it back from 1982 to 1987 and again in 2006 through today. For the 2025 model year, the Charger Daytona is available in an electric version from Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram San Marcos and other Dodge dealerships. What are its strong suits? Read on to learn more.
Eco-Friendly Power
One of the main pull factors of the latest Charger Daytona EV is its blend of power and eco-friendliness. It offers plenty of horsepower, especially for an electric vehicle. With the Scat Pack trim, it generates an incredible 670 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque. It’ll go from 0 to 60 in less than 3.5 seconds.
Even its base R/T trim is extraordinary with 496 horsepower. Many people say it’s every bit as impressive as a conventional ICE V-8. That’s quite a compliment for an electric vehicle, particularly one in the muscle car category.
Exciting Drive Features and Performance Modes
The 2025 Charger Daytona EV also has exciting drive features and performance modes for drivers to have fun with. Its optional PowerShot mode gives it a quick boost of about 40 horsepower. On top of that, its Launch Control, Drift/Donut, Track, Drag and Wet/Snow modes allow drivers to customize its feel and performance to match road conditions or even their moods. Beyond those features, it’s equipped with adaptive suspension and Brembo brakes to add safety and a comfortable ride to its list of benefits.
Blending the Past With the Present
Additionally, the Charger Daytona EV has a distinct blend of classic muscle car design and modern touches to truly make it stand out. It features the widebody stance and fastback profile you’d expect from a Charger. It also has extra features like its unique R-Wing to reduce drag and enhance downforce. People are quite impressed with its bold, beefy appearance. Critics and car enthusiasts alike say that it successfully melds the past with the present and even a bit of the future.
Practicality and Family-Friendliness
It’s also worth noting that Dodge stepped outside the box with the design of the latest Charger Daytona EV. It’s essentially a family-friendly hatchback muscle car. It offers plenty of comfort as well as passenger space and cargo capacity. With the rear seats folded down, it has about 38.5 cubic feet of cargo space, which is considerably more than its predecessor. The base model gets about 308 miles of range on a full charge while the Scat Pack trim gets around 241 miles.
Taking the Charger Into the Future
In a nutshell, the 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV has a long list of features that people absolutely love. Those mentioned here are only a few of its strong suits. It’s fast, powerful and exciting. It’s also environmentally friendly, great for families and practical. With all that being the case, it may very well take the Dodge legacy and the Charger’s reputation into the future.
