Dodge has brought one of America's most iconic muscle cars into modern times with the 2024 Charger. Learn about the most exciting features of the world's first and only electric muscle car.

Sleek Updated Exterior Design

The Dodge Charger maintains its classic athletic exterior styling but adds a few modern updates. For 2024, only all-electric two-door versions are available, but four-door fuel-powered models will be available in early 2025. Illuminated exterior badges and nameplates celebrate the Charger's long and iconic history. Staggered wheels that are slightly larger in the back give the Dodge Charger a sporty aesthetic while boosting grip on diverse terrain.

Ample customizations allow you to create a Charger that reflects your personality. Choose from the standard widebody configuration, or go with the R-Wing or Fratzonic designs. You can expect the iconic Dodge aesthetic regardless of which trim level or style you choose. 

Advanced Performance Features

The Dodge Charger has gone electric, and even with a new eco-conscious powertrain,  drivers can still expect an impressive power output. The Dodge Charger R/T offers up to 496 horsepower with 404 pound-feet of torque. A more powerful Scat Pack V-8 is also available, delivering an exciting 670 horsepower with 627 pound-feet of torque. Customizable drive modes, including donut and drift, allow you to adjust performance based on your preferences and road conditions.

All 2024 Dodge Chargers have an all-wheel-drive system, promising a confidence-inspiring drive, even when hitting top speeds. Additional features, such as line lock and launch control, carry over from previous Dodge Charger models and significantly boost performance.

Upgraded Interior

The next-generation electric Charger exceeds expectations with its futuristic design. Dodge offers its unique Attitude Adjustment Lighting, allowing you to set the mood for every drive. A larger infotainment system with driver-centric screens puts crucial vehicle controls front and center — enhancing safety and convenience.

Two color options allow for further customization. You can opt for a blacked-out interior to give your Dodge Charger mysterious appeal or use bold red accents for a sportier design. Suede and nappa leather materials are available, and regardless of which you choose, you can expect comfortable, supportive seats that offer sufficient grip when enjoying the muscle car's exhilarating performance.

Exciting Technologies

Modern technologies in the Dodge Charger enhance connectivity, safety, and performance. Take control of your driving experience with the well-equipped cabin. Elevate the thrill through the PowerShot feature, which gives you an additional 40 horsepower for a few seconds.

The latest Charger is loaded with modern safety features, such as all-speed traction control and hill start assist. You can add another layer of security to your ride with the available adaptive cruise control and rear backup camera system. Modern technologies in the Dodge Charger also influence its expected range. Dodge estimates that the muscle car's battery will deliver 260 miles for the Scat Pack and 317 miles for the R/T. The Dodge Charger effortlessly combines the design cues of a classic muscle car with the modern technologies today's drivers expect. While the 2024 Dodge Charger isn't yet available at local dealerships, you can explore Dodge's current inventory of stylish, modern vehicles online.

Introducing the 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV: The Future of Muscle Cars

If you've always dreamed of owning a muscle car but worry about your carbon footprint, worry no more. The future of muscle cars is here in the form of the 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV. This all-electric beauty redefines the muscle car, transforming it from a gas-guzzling monster to a lean, green super machine. Welcome to the new Charger Daytona EV. Basics About the 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona EV Everything Dodge incorporates into the Daytona EV is designed to maximize performance while paying homage to Chargers of old. The sloped roofline and sculpted hood contribute to the overall aerodynamics, with the latter boasting scoops to retain the muscle car vibe drivers love. A revamped front fascia now features a unique R-Wing aero pass through to minimize drag and reduce front lift by more than 30%. By using lightweight materials in the Charger's construction, Dodge manages to increase rigidity by 50% while enhancing control and handling. And, as a nod to its predecessors, the new Daytona wears illuminated Fratzog badging at the front and rear. New Features Electrified Performance Even though it's gone electric, the Next-Gen Charger certainly doesn't compromise on performance. At its heart is a 400-volt dual motor propulsion system, making this EV the only all-wheel drive muscle car on the market. For 2025, Dodge brings us two outstanding trim levels, each varying in output. Even as the base trim, the R/T is no slouch, generating 496 horsepower and 404 pound-feet of torque. However, upgrade to the Scat Pack and you push the ponies to a mighty 670 and the torque to an astounding 627 pound-feet. With the additional power behind it, the Scat Pack shoots from 0-60 in just 3.3 seconds and covers a quarter mile in less than 12 seconds. Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust Battery-powered vehicles aren't known for their roaring engines. That is, until now, as every Charger EV is fitted with the world's first Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust. This innovative exhaust system takes its cues from a supercharged V8 to produce the auditory feedback muscle enthusiasts crave. Whether idling in traffic, hurtling around the track, or powering down, the Daytona produces the growls and roars you expect from a high-performing vehicle. Incredible Efficiency Muscle car and efficiency don't usually go together. However, the Charger Daytona EV is different thanks to its electric propulsion system. When fully charged, the R/T will give you an all-electric range of 308 miles. Although the Scat Pack's additional output drains the battery quicker, drivers can still expect to achieve 241 miles before having to recharge.

Unleash Power with the 2025 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat

You can settle for another run-of-the-mill three-row grocery-getter or you can grab the 2025 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat, which, as the name suggests, is a whole different monster. In simple terms, it's a muscle car with three rows. Unleash Power With the 2025 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat Yes, It Has a Hemi We called the Durango SRT Hellcat a muscle car, and here's why. Classic muscle cars all followed a pretty simple formula: take your biggest, baddest engine and cram it into an otherwise ordinary car. That's what Dodge did here. They took a normal three-row SUV and dropped in a supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V8, the most powerful SUV gas engine in the business. more The numbers are obviously absurd in the best way possible. 710 horsepower. 645 pound-feet of torque. Zero to sixty in just 3.5 seconds. And it can still tow 8,700 pounds, meaning you can haul a sports car to the track and outrun it when you get there. Key Performance Components Sure, the Hemi V8 rightly steals the show, but there's a ton of hardware making this thing the fun-machine it is. Up front, a cold-air scoop in the lower fascia feeds the supercharger and that beastly 92-mm throttle body, helping the engine breathe easier and hit harder. Out back, the exhaust is tuned to belt out that signature Dodge growl. Putting that power to work is a TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission, complete with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters and seven available drive modes: Auto, Sport, Track, Snow, Tow, Eco, and Valet (because even parking attendants need protection from all this fury). A full-time all-wheel drive system is standard, and when it's time to reel all that madness back in, big, beefy Brembo brakes are on duty. Three Special Editions To mark twenty years of Hemi-powered goodness, Dodge is offering the Durango SRT Hellcat in a trio of special editions: Hammerhead, Silver Bullet, and Brass Monkey. All three come loaded with high-end features, including a 19-speaker Harman Kardon sound system, carbon fiber interior accents, ventilated front seats, and leather seating surfaces. Where they start to show off is in the details. The Hammerhead edition rocks Night Moves (dark blue) paint job, Gray Laguna seats, black-painted brake calipers, and satin carbon wheels. The Silver Bullet edition is finished in an eye-catching Triple Nickel color. It also gets Ebony red Nappa leather seats, red-painted brake calipers, and satin black wheels with a lights-out finish. The last edition, the Brass Monkey, wears a red oxide body color, Sepia Laguna seats, black calipers, and brass monkey wheels. There's no dull moment behind the wheel of the 2025 Durango SRT Hellcat.
