Dodge Confirms Electric Charger Daytona R/T Is Dead as Unsold Cars Pile Up


Poor sales and the whole tariff situation have doomed Dodge's entry-level electric muscle car ahead of the six-cylinder's arrival later this year.

The news comes shortly after the brand announced massive incentives on 2024 and 2025 models in a bid to clear excess inventory, and a few weeks after the White House’s tariffs made the Canadian-built coupe more expensive. The spokesperson confirmed that the Scat Pack will stick around on its own until the four-door model joins the lineup, and that the twin-turbocharged, 3.0-liter straight-six-powered Sixpack variants will land during the second half of this year. Getting rid of the base trim will inevitably make the Charger more expensive, and that’s bad news when you factor in the fairly low demand for what’s been hyped as the first electric muscle car.
