Dodge has unleashed the future of American muscle with the introduction of its electrifying new lineup, headlined by the all-electric Dodge Charger. Boasting power and performance that would make any gearhead swoon, these electric chargers mark a bold leap into the electric vehicle arena for the iconic American brand.
The new Charger lineup is a testament to Dodge’s commitment to pushing boundaries while staying true to its roots. Featuring four distinct versions, including two electric muscle cars and two combustion-engined variants, Dodge has left no stone unturned in its quest to redefine what it means to drive a Charger.
At the forefront of this electrifying lineup are the electric muscle cars, which pack a serious punch under the hood. The range-topping Charger Daytona Scat Pack delivers a staggering 670bhp (500kW) and 627lb ft of torque, propelling it from 0-60mph in just 3.3 seconds. Meanwhile, the second electric Charger, sporting an R/T badge, offers a slightly toned-down but still impressive 496bhp (370kW) and a 0-60mph time of 4.7 seconds.
Both electric chargers utilize Stellantis’s cutting-edge ‘STLA Large’ platform, which promises extreme power and performance. With all-wheel-drive capabilities and 250kW electric drive modules, these chargers offer unrivaled acceleration and handling, ensuring a thrilling driving experience with every turn of the wheel.
But it’s not just about raw power – Dodge has also focused on enhancing the driving experience with advanced technology and innovative features. The chargers come equipped with a 100.5kWh battery pack, providing ample range and fast charging capabilities. Additionally, customizable regenerative braking systems and adaptive dampers ensure optimal performance in any driving conditions.
On the outside, the new chargers pay homage to their predecessors with a sleek and muscular design that exudes confidence and aggression. From the ridged bonnet to the ‘R-Wing’ front setup, every detail is carefully crafted to maximize aerodynamics and airflow, while the ‘ring of fire’ LED rear taillamps add a touch of modern flair.
Inside the cabin, drivers are greeted with a blend of retro-inspired design and cutting-edge technology. A large central touchscreen and digital cluster screen provide access to a wealth of features and information, while premium amenities such as ambient lighting and a heated steering wheel elevate the driving experience to new heights.
With the introduction of the all-electric Charger lineup, Dodge has once again proven its commitment to pushing the boundaries of performance and innovation. As Dodge brand chief executive officer Tim Kuniskis aptly puts it, “The next-generation of Dodge muscle has arrived.” And with the roar of the electric charger, the powerful play continues, louder and faster than ever before.
