First Pics! 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona!

- Now that production of the popular Dodge Charger and Challenger muscle cars has ended, Dodge fans have been waiting for something to get excited about. The community was teased in August of 2022 when the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Banshee Concept was shown during the Dodge Speed Week event.
Since then, the concept has been shown at a few auto shows, but not much new information came to light until mid-October of 2023. Photos of a production-ready Charger body in white were leaked, presumably from somewhere in the body shop at the Windsor Assembly plant.
While these photos didn't reveal a lot, you get a better look at the car's proportions and see that the b-pillarless design of the concept would not make production.
This morning, Dodge surprised everyone by releasing dark photos of a pre-production Dodge Charger Daytona. These photos are intentionally dark to help hide design cues and look like they were at a lot outside of the Windsor Assembly Plant, where the new Charger is being built.
This front shot shows us that the R-wing front end and the lighted Fratzog logo will make production. An LED lightbar runs from the sides of the LED headlights and wraps along the bottom of the R-wing opening. The production car will have an opening hood, but it opens behind the R-wing "grille" and front fascia. We do not yet know if there will be a "frunk" with storage or whether the hood will open just for serviceable items.
The front bumper features a large horizontal intake housing Stellantis' new ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Sensor) module. Each side also features a vertical intake, and we don't currently know whether any of these intakes are functional for battery cooling or just for show. There are front parking sensors and an integrated lip as part of the front bumper as well.
This angled front shot gives us another look, showing us the car's wide hips that run from a cut line at the front of the door and carry into the top of the rear fascia. The rear fenders also appear to flare out quite a bit, giving the new Charger a wide stance. A staggered tire setup could be in the cards, with one of our sources claiming that the base car will ride on a 305-section width rear tire, and the rear tire does look quite wide in this shot. The fronts appear to be narrower, although we aren't sure about the width as of yet. There is also a possibility this car is running a staggered wheel size as it looks like this could be on a 20-inch front wheel and 21-inch rear wheel, although that could just be a visual trick due to the angle.
Along the side, you can see much larger side view mirrors than the concept vehicle and a different style door handle that I would guess is on an electric release.
The rear 3/4 view shot shows us a lot as well. Immediately noticeable is the "fuel door" on the driver's rear quarter panel; for the EV cars, this will hold the charge port, while for the Hurricane-powered cars, this will be a traditional fuel door. This view also affords us another look at the rear "hips" that widen throughout the front door and under the rear quarter window and C-pillar, terminating at the rear fascia. The Daytona insignia is embossed in the rear bumper between the reflectors; our sources say all the EV cars will carry the Daytona insignia, while Hurricane-powered models will not. You can see the rear diffuser with long stakes on each side to help direct and clean up airflow around the rear of the car.
There are also more vents on each side of the rear bumper, along with a wide area to mount a license plate, which makes us wonder if this car will be sold in markets other than just North America. The rear hatch (yes, it will be a hatchback) appears to not be closed all the way, as a red cord is hanging out the back. Full-width taillights are featured around the back with two clear lenses on each corner (one on the fixed part of the taillight and one on the opening part attached to the hatch). We also expect a red, lighted Fratzog logo to be integrated into the center of the rear light bar.
While there isn't much else that we can learn from these photos yet, it is the best look we have had at the next-generation Charger. Dodge claims availability in late 2024, leading us to believe they will completely skip the 2024 model year and launch the new Charger as a 2025 model. Fans waiting for the Hurricane-powered Charger will still have a bit of a wait as our sources say the launch staggering will be 400-volt two-door models first, 800-volt two-door models second, four-door models launching third, and then Hurricane-powered models coming last.
We will have much more to tell you about the new Dodge Charger soon, so make sure to stay tuned to MoparInsiders for updates!

I guarantee you that somebody will shoehorn a hellcat into one of these shortly after release
It apparently already has a trans tunnel in the chassis of the car so it would be an easier job than the other ev swaps lol
Yea dodge !
bout half way thru the year or next years models will be “last call” again and so will the years after that either way I’m getting that scat pack
I wouldn’t say shoe horn, you could land a small helicopter on that massive hood 😔 what a ugly replacement to the Hell Cats etc!
Not gonna lie, I think it looks good. If this was going to be a hellcat people would be hyped for it.
@@jimmycline4778Yes, shoehorn. The engine bay and trans tunnel were designed for the new I6, you're going to have to "massage" it to fit a proper V8
never in my life have i seen a bisexual car
Literally my first thought when seeing the front
Looks like a 60hp sedan from the 80s
Who the fuck made this bro…….
the Dodge Charger EV is a real abomination. You know, they're basically taking a classic muscle car and ruining it by turning it into an EV. I mean, what's the point? If you want something that's electric and environmentally friendly, just get a Tesla. Don't ruin a classic car and turn it into this monstrosity.
Ha ha
I agree homee
😭
Tell that to stupid Stellantis@@morgansynth235
Fetty wap
This looks like a 90’s concept car.
No disrespect but nothing about this car screams 90s 😭
This is hideous
That hood made Me angry.
Salute
It won't sale period
I’m sure like 9 people will buy it and 6 of them will be stolen
Charger guys will buy it just like how they are all buying the cyberpunk and that is worse than this
Boy that's a 2004 monte carlo ss 😂
😂😂
Does it have a V8? No? Burn it
They’re going to v8 it I guarantee it. The hurricane won’t sell and neither with the electric.
@@billymadison8036 atleast it has Inline 6
@@nissangt-restrella2413 👎🏽
@@billymadison8036 what's so bad about an inline 6?
@@nissangt-restrella2413 nothing. But they belong in tractors and trucks. Not muscle cars. They don't exactly sound like performance either
Looks like the old Dodge Avenger car from the 90s. Good luck with that!
Fr
They actually managed to make it uglier
And now Dodge is a thing in the past...RIP
That Sh!t Uh-gah-LEE!!!!
People are not going to want it if it doesn’t have a V-8.
I remember back in 1999 Dodge unveiled the Charger R/T concept bringing back the nameplate for a new generation. The design was unique but odd at the same time having 4 doors with the look of it being only a coupe. This vehicle reminds me of said concept alot. I find it to be strange looking at different angles like if something is missing… 🤔 and its not just the Hemi-less engine bay. The proportions seem off a bit.
That triangle is the first thing getting removed
Looks like a rotory symbol.
That triangle is sick lol
I will keep my 23 charger rt last call forever this new charger is ugly😂
Same.
No Hemi, No sale
Sad sad sad sad moment
womp womp
V8 or no mate
Tt inline 6
No.
Gross
Nope.
who tf wants an ev daytona....these car companys bout to go bankrupt cuz ppl not buying em😅😅😅😅😅
You don't understand. They're being forced to by the world elites and our government. Musk said he loses over 40k per vehicle produced. Mind you, our tax money paid the brunt of tesla start-up cost. He said the government pays him our tax money to make up the difference. The rest of the car companies have to do this in order to do business in the U.S. and Europe. Stilantis and Ford both confirmed that they lose a lot of money on evs. China owns gm and they have the benefit of slave labor. Almost all of their vehicles are made in china except trucks, but they do engineer and make the diesel motors in china by Isuzu. Ford and Stilantis do not get as much money as tesla because they're being "punished" for making gas powered vehicles. So they had to pay the start up costs and take the loss. This is why all of the vehicles have gone through the roof. You need to vote accordingly. Remove all democrats from office and about 75% of Republicans. Pay attention to what they say.
I do. They’re the future. However, a great driving experience needs both speed and sound. Make a fast EV that roars when you accelerate and you’ve got the whole package
They’ve had a lot of time to dial in their fratzonic exhaust, we will just have to wait and see
@@DavyDave1313please bro this shit is fucking ass, like yo momma
@@DavyDave1313only weak men drive ev's.
You realize that the automotive industry is moving towards more sustainable solutions, right? Sure, some people don't like EVs and they're not selling as well as conventional gas-powered cars, but that doesn't mean that the companies are gonna go bankrupt. They're just experimenting with new technology and trying to find the best way to cater to the needs of the consumers. So stop hating on EVs and get with the times, dude. They're the future, whether you like it or not.
I think I'm gonna be sick. 🤮
Its electric. Dodge-Stelantis stopped producing the Hemi. 2023 was last yr. Mine is a 2016 with 17k miles so needless to say, Ill be having mine for a long time.
Ngl the reveal trailer did NOT do this car justice, it looks better in these photos than in that video 😭 here's to someone shoving a hellcat engine in this baby
That's hideous
🤢
this is like the sudden change from the 72 roadrunner, to the 73 and beyond 😂
Can’t believe I’ve lived long enough to see dodge die twice
The current hellcats looks more modern
You know I would just like a modern vehicle with all the modern technology and interior and everything else, but with the classics 69 body! That would be freaking amazing.
This is the teemu version of the thier Charger banshee. What a disappointment
It’s not the banshee. This is a lower model below the Banshee.
Alright boys time to go to Corvette
Terrible! Has the proportions of a sedan but only has two small doors. The rear looks like the 2010 charger (going backwards in styling)
This straight up looks like a low pic of a GTA6 screenshot.
God awful, but at least it's a 2 door.
Put a HELLAPHANT IN IT
That thing is so ugly.
Two door charger/challanger wtf this is so bad
The Challenger is already a two door
i think gm designers got involed on this one lol the one that makes the 2500 chevy trucks lol.
You might be right. It definitely looks like a GM product. 🤔🤷🤦
Looks like a mid 80s Chrysler profile
Fugly
They should have upgraded the interior of the current charger and challenger years ago
They did in 2015 how many remakes of the same car do you need
@@rustyshackelford5892 The current exterior is timeless so as long as they continue to modernize the interior every few years, they'll sell a lot of cars.
@@rustyshackelford5892facts
Them puny ass headlights look horrible
If nobody buys this car they will bring back the V8
no they won't
F UV cars, they are no good in the winter, stop giving rich people a tax cut for buying them, most of us struggle to get a 2k car, then tax on gas, tags, sale and insurance makes $ for Gov
you know everybody gets a discount from buying them right? and I don't even think they do it anymore.
I think they should decrease the size of the interior and increase the size of the trunk, and go with a retro style hood with the 2 indents like the 60’s models, Making it flush with the top of the front spoiler.
That r wing is for air flow over the car it is the new daytona wing
@@Michellejosph I know, I just don’t like the look of it.
@@Suspicious-Cat good for you
@@DodgerFloof I want to make out with you
@@DodgerFloof I want to kiss you on the lips
STUUUUPID, it’s electric 😂😂😂😳😳😳🙈🙈🙈
And a tt inline 6 option
Still needs the duel stamps on the doors and flip up cover headlights ! Cmon this 2024 go all the way or go home , p.s. it’s a nice ride
Dodge you just f up!
They’re gonna have to do a lot of marketing $$ to make this thing cool
Thats a 2014 dodge charger electrified- and nobody’s surprised-trust me
I don’t mind the new look as I’m it’s it will grow on people more as time goes on, and an awd Hurricane would be promising, but no V8 is a big mistake.
Looks sweet I want one
It needs a liberty walk widebody kit
it will look better once you take it to LS Customs
Bro this is whats being sold why the fuckis no one hiring me for my 3d mesh modeling skills😅
I like it but I’d prefer the inline 6
Whoever buys this car eats at Hooters every day.
Yuck
Going backwards 😢
Those so called "Last Call" cars were just a money grab. The Daytona will have a Hemi.
It looks real sharp
It looks cheap and dumb.
Dodgers almost out of business massive inventory they can't sell jacking up prices on trucks like crazy this will put them over the edge
Shit is ugly, I’m glad I got my last call 2023
Those head lights wont do well in snow storms guaranteed. They will be slopped up frozen quickly.
Come on dodge you can do better ima just get a magma at this point
Looks like an E.V.
Gonna feel bad and sorry for those who buy one just for speed.
If you can’t 100% disable all electronic stability/tc it’s a fail.
It looks smaller than the current charger model. With the 505 hp version. Will be full they are in the Grand Wagoner. They move that heavyweight real good.
Thought this was the Banshee
What does the interior look like is the question !!
Looks like a finished product to me, makes sense tho, they need them ready for fall sales, early summer drops. They need at least 4-6 months to finish an order from the final click on a computer to the day u put your hands on the wheel. I’d hemi swap it soon as I got it but other than that inconvenience it looks cool lol
Can’t wait I love this charger better then those 4 door cars they have been calling charger for years the charger should always be 2 door plus it looks like what the 2nd gen chargers would look like if they were designed and built today
I love Mopar but wtf is this😂
Looks awful
how? it has retro styling that brings back the look of the classic og charger.
@DodgerFloof nah, it looks watered down and soft.
Boring, just like the chargers do now.
Needs a full redo with an aggressive style.
@@johnnyturbo8460 nahhhh you trippin
@@DodgerFloof yeah, on the ugliness of that car..
@@johnnyturbo8460 yeah good one lmao
The dodge community better hellcat swap these asap
I like the 2025 bròooooooooooooo❤
The back looks worse. Not a fan of the edged lining.
I've never seen an entire car company come out as gay. good for you, Dodge!
Absolute insult to the muscle car community.
It's literally designed to look like the classic og muscle car from the 70s. and before you mention the engine; muscle car ≠ v8
@@DodgerFloof meth is a hell of a drug. Save yourself.
@@derekswist5353 nice, so you have no meaningful reply. thanks mate
@@DodgerFloofit looks good, but it NEEDS a v8 to be a muscle car.
@@g3n3sis50 *cough cough* og mustang had a V6 👍
The front doesn't really match the back.
Should have just made rollers lol
At least its not a station wagon like the Mach e!
I hate EV’s as much as the next guy, but Yall are on some shit, this is a beautiful car. I agree that it won’t sell well because it doesn’t have a v8, but it is beautiful. I hate the look of the 2006-2023 chargers. Those were just shitty four door cars even though they came with v8’s mostly.
Wow that is not good. That will not sell.
Just take that RUclips channel get get everyone getting one.
Its funny how dodge shit on the manual transmission so people who cant drive stick could act like they could move a v8 and now theyre shitting on their v8s. Fan boys will buy these up still and its sad
A I6 gonna be smoking muscle cars now & it’s lighter
It's under 500HP in a 5000 lb car. It's gonna be slow.
135mph top speed 😂
Who is this.... Morgan freeman?
Only dudes who like dudes like evs
It takes 8 DDD batteries
Folks oughtta stop wrapping. The front doesn't look much different than the current charger and if it goes forward, finally,,,, a 2 door REAL Charger with throwback celebratory asthetics,,everything a REAL Charger should have. After YEARS of Dodge completely ignoring enthusiasts. Obviously it will be fast. Congrats to Dodge I say.
And it's got a straight six.
No, thanks!
It looks more like a challenger but ok
Add a V8 and maybe.
Wow. They have one of the most beautiful, badass muscle cars from history to model this new car and its trash. This is what we get? Imagine the punk that decided to throw his stupid design into the mass of sketches. How could they mess the headlights and tail lights up???? Quad circles front and rear?? No!!? Bunch a crap
Looks worse than a dead deer hit by a semi at 70
Horse shit! Can't wait until the unsold units are reported! That reality is going to slap!
