It’s hard to even fathom the combined amount of money we have all paid for our Dodge muscle cars and also how absolutely none of that money will be spent on Dodges again. Crazy
Wonder what the insurance for this will cost lol my regular ass scatpack is 500 a month no tickets, no wrecks..... I'm gonna say 7-800 a month just to have this. I mean at 80K most people making that won't care but that's a very small number. I think I make 70K a year lol
@@hostileactual7655 With my 2019 Hellcat Redeye WB. With a MSRP of 85K, i paid 80K. It was $1,900 a year ( Hagerty ) 56 years old, no tickets. A $158 a month a Geico wanted $100.00 a month more.
For reference. The Tesla Model S Plaid, for the same price, and it: -is 1,100lbs lighter -has 1,000hp -most likely has better cornering -most likely is cheaper to maintain
This car will not sell as an EV. I hope the 550 hp gas version is a success because I really like the look of this car. My late father was a die hard Mopar fan and my 80 year old uncle loves his Scat Pack.
Agree, they nailed the interior, not too much screen but just enough. Even their normal turbo V6 with only 450 hp would make it a nice car, and I will consider it.
Manufacturers need to start making $30k EVs if they want to force them on us. Over $60k EVs with everything but the kitchen sink are not reshaping the market.
Correct. But even more correct is the government driving this all. They are the ultimate entity to blame for enforcing stupid unachievable CAFE standards that is forcing manufacturers into this EV garbage. There is a market for EVs no doubt, but not at the expense of us motorheads(the free market) who still demand US gas burning muscle cars. The whole thing is criminal and the government as usual is to blame.
Coming in mass by late 2026. By 2028 globally evs will be well over 50% of ALL vehicle sales&with phevs combined it will be 80% or more. By then solely ice powered vehicles will be finally dying off even in America as by then gas will be $6-8 a gallon or more nationwide. There will also be many more ev options available with 250-300 mile ranges, quick charging and 25-35k when new sticker prices. I mean today for 55k before the $7,500 credit you can buy a 10s American made 4dr sleeper sedan in the tesla 2024 m3p which can run for pennies per mile and charge at your house, apt condo work and even for FREE! What a time to be alive and love reliable cheap speed. 😎👍🏻
@@4literv6Wow, you must’ve smoked a lot of good stuff before writing this! Why would gas cost $6-8 if demand for gas is reduced? The price keeps dropping, just filled up today for $2.85! And no, there isn’t any electric charge stations anywhere close to where I live, not at my condo complex, not at my shopping plaza and sure as shit nowhere near my office!
I don't think dodge fans care about EVs or they would have a plaid which cost far less then a 100k redeye jailbreak or whatever else. This thing is DOA becuase it's an EV not becuase it's terrible perfromance wise.
@mixedbyfiatcat dammn 😬😳. You can still find first & early second Gen vipers for around $30 to $50k. I had a chance to buy a 99 gts for $35k... I should've bought it but wound up going a different direction in life. 🫠

He’s sooo lying to everyone on this video… influencers need to tell the truth about these new garbage cars American companies are trying to sell us .. I’d rather a lexus for 80 k
No , no , no , no , just no. As a matter of fact my Durango R/T and Charger Scat Pack will most likely be my last Dodge purchases unless they wake the hell up.
After all our waiting to see what Dodge came up with... and a 2024 Hyundai Elantra N has a better interior for $36k, and Dodge is asking a FOOLISH $80k? 🤣😂😂🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣 NO!
Yes, I would buy. If it was in the $60’s loaded and could get the $7500 tax credit then yes! Own my own home and charging isn’t a problem. Just priced to high, I own a hellcat.
Ofc this old head is lmao. He’s really hyping up this car, was it for money? Or for more exclusive access? Idk but it’s no coincidence since this dude in just the previous video met the CEO of dodge so
I will not buy an EV Charger, I would consider a ICE powered Charger if they price it reasonably. Vehicle prices are out of control, they need to come WAY DOWN!
Don’t forget dealer markups. Probably gonna need to add about $25k in dealer markup to that $85k!!! And don’t forget tags and “taxes” ! Still haven’t put on any kits or add ons. Then finally the nitrogen for each tire fee. Gonna be over $100k for a “scatpack” (which it pains me to call that EV) .
These cars are going to be nearly impossible to sell at MSRP. If a dealer adds a markup these things are going to rot on the showroom floor. Then factor in the rule not to buy a car the first year it's released because of glitches. Dodge is deep in **it now.
@pontiacGXPfan it's the easiest and cheapest platform for performance parts. They got to the market with their muscle car era big block and small block before Mopar or Ford, so they became the focus of the aftermarket/racing industry. Anytime I'm buying stuff for my small block ford, I drool over the prices and options for chevy engines. Any time I'm buying parts for my Mopar, I drool over the availability of Ford and GM aftermarket.
I think it's a good looking car inside and out but it's the drive train that just kills it for me. Will go look at one of the six pack cars when the come out.
Agreed, interior and exterior looks have a few things I am not a fan of. The big wide screens(not just on dodge, don't like them in the new mustangs or cadillacs either. That front spoiler(?) "thing" they did, and of course, the 'canned' exhaust sounds. Does it come with canned laughter and applause as well? Maybe the car will look better with some form of I.C.E. and real exhaust. Til then I stand with the rest, and will keep my 5.7's and 6.4 all day.
“Keeping my 2023 Charger hellcat red eye Widebody & my 2023 Demon 170 & my Track Hawk forever” is all I ever see in X’s comment section. Too many broke folks come here to lie about cars they don’t have and cars they can’t afford 😂😂😂
The Tesla does not even have a gauge cluster or speedometer where it is normally located. It has a stupid screen that looks like a child hot glued an iPad to the dash. Their "vegan" leather is a fancy term for vinyl. I am digging the interior of this new Charger. I just got my Hellcat Challenger a year ago, so not in the market for a new car
@@devildogentertainment4904horsepower maybe. Interior? Not even close. I have been in plenty of Telsas. Their interior is plastic garbage. Not all Teslas are super fast either
It's way too much money for a Scat Pack. The basic Hellcat with roll up windows was just under $70k. You could get a wide body hellcat with zero options for this price range.
Ur better off just getting a bmw m3 or m4 with their inline 6 twin turbo. It will absolutely be better. The s58 engine is insane and has amazing tuning potential
If these things went for 30K I'd be preordering one right now. I see no reason to get one of these over a Tesla. Sadly I'm sure they're also gonna make the Inline 6 versions overpriced as well, which is a shame because I'd like to get one. The car does look great though, except for that ridiculous Scat badge.
@@TeslaPlaidChannel I also remember that Dodge supposedly has a third EV with superior performance to this Scatpack, so their "plaid equivalent" will likely being $100K+ I know Dodge is trying not to go under but these prices are not going to help them.
Why would u even get an EV then. I see alot of dodge lovers (which a lot already have) in the 80-100k price range getting a bmw m3 or m4 with the inline 6 twin turbo. 0-60 in 2.8 sec.. way faster then this EV bs.
@@G82Watts Because maybe I want an EV? Lol it's not about just performance, and I'm not looking anything in the 80-100K price range anyway. I said 30K for a reason, I'm broke lmao
Um... no, no it won't. You apparently have no clue the type of people who buy Dodge Chargers and the reasons they do. Mopar fans hate this car for all the reasons that they love Mopar. Also, the price point is too high to draw the beta cucks over from Tesla EV's.
I heard pricing starts at $40k. That said, we should stop getting on our knees for price gouging and free-market insanity. Hit them with price controls.
RacerX, you’re trying to generate excitement but it’s not what I want from Dodge. Fake sound and electric. It’s a big pass. Add ICE, especially V8 then it’s great. EV sales are slowing and these will just be more paperweights on the dealers lots.
Yeah, that looks really good. I like a lot better! I think the white brings out the true shape of the car better than some of the other colors we saw. This car gives you a better idea what it looks like and it does look nice. I have to admit!
I have 2 Dodges, a RAM and 2 Jeeps in my driveway right now. If this is where FCA is going with their design they won't get another dime from me. I'm gonna drive these HEMIs till the wheels fall off.
Between everything going on with Stellantis and this being the first generation of this vehicle you would have to be out of your mind to buy one!! Especially when $30k overpriced!!!!!
First, it’s a Stellantis, 2nd, it’s an EV not an ICE vehicle & I don’t care how they dolled it up superficially. My son has a Tesla model Y & his tires had 24K On them & had to replace. RANGE ANXIETY, him & wife afraid to pass charging stations plus don’t use the A/ C!!! It was 100 degrees in Oklahoma & they were afraid if they used A/C they might not make it home!!
As much as ppl hate the direction dodge is going in. You cannot stop innovation. They are just keeping up with the times. Unfortunately EV is the future of cars
Ford is about to drop a four door Mustang to put the final nail in the coffin for Dodge they just let dealers look at it calling it the “Mach 4.” Get it? Four doors, Mach 4 even if the public dont like it the police fleets will buy it
Honestly Mr X, I love your content, I have been following you for years.. I am a classic car builder and mechanic. Nostalgia is what my heart follows. I own a 2018 scat pack challenger, and have been a dedicated dodge brother for the last 20 years.I have a really hard time accepting the new age fluff. I admire your dedication to promote what's up and coming , but...I know by what you and your wife have owned that you are a true dinosaur burning brother and will continue until ther is no gas to burn.. Or maybe the next fuel to burn is hydrogen..who knows keep up your enthusiasm. I appreciate what you do for our community and will be a long time follower. Thank you for what you do... I really thinkyou should find a position in the dodge promotion department.. I think you would really do well as well as the content you provide for our muscle head community. Thank you for your service..
yea he should, perhaps he can do his best to save this brand in its downward spiral, but unfortunately for you sir he’s promoting garbage. Like the car in this video. I’m not sure if it was for money, or for more exclusive access from Dodge in future events or unveils, whatever it is, this review of this car is not genuine (or at least I don’t think it is) but if he truly likes this car, then I guess he’s entitled to that. The vast majority of dodge fans see this new product and there’s absolutely nothing appealing about this. It’s not a muscle car it’s a fake and overpriced battery car.
Guys just getting a pulse check here. I imagine this has been terribly received by people. The reason you would want a muscle car is the exact opposite reason you would buy an electric car. Like there’s basically zero appeal to these things. Who cares how fast you go in something electric. The gas engine is what makes it cool.
I'm good, I will def be keeping my 2016 Pitch Black Challenger Hellcat, optioned out. Seriously though, when I first saw the 2025 Charger Daytona, it kind of looked like a Camaro in the front.
Why do you refer to stupid speaker on the back of the car as an exhaust?! You know it’s not an exhaust. You know it’s a stupid speaker. I guess you’re trying to chummy up with Dodge but be honest bruh.
@@TwoTimesRmediasame. I wish people would just shut up and give them a chance. The design is so awesome and retro. I'm super excited to get my hands on one.
@@AP383BB me too , people really have a hard time dealing with change. Progression and evolution stops for no one. Carburators are "gone" and when that happened people were outraged also. Yet you can still buy them now. It will be the same for the V8 engines. To me, these cars look amazing especially when compared to the bland Tesla's interior and exteriors. The sound is actually pretty cool. It's a concept that I saw in the Vince Vaughn movie " The dilemma" .
Many of us understand why Dodge is being forced into EV's due to MPG limits etc, and I think they've done well on their first design, I like it. But the problem they'll have is that even if people like it for an EV, they aren't in the market for one. Seeing the new interior and tech without an ICE engine just tanks any excitement for it. Hopefully the Hurricane version will be a decent car.
👍 Very nice looking design. But worth noting that the 2019 Tesla S Raven also had ~670HP, running 10.4 at 125MPH. (So that kind of EV power feels kinda “5 years ago”.) We made 1001 trouble-free dragstrip passes with ours. Hope this one is just as reliable! 😃
@@danielkimball3037 And as he says in the video, EVs aren’t for everyone. But for those that want the power and reliability, a Plaid is $89K for 1020HP/1050TQ. That will make this Charger a tough sell at $80K 🤔
@TeslaPlaidChannel 100% correct. Why buy this when a 1000hp+ Plaid is so close in price and a proven 1/4 mile monster..if it were in the high 40, low 50k range then there would be a good argument for this car..I don't really understand Dodge's rational with this car
The quoted quarter mile time time (11.7 seconds) is more in line with the 2015 Tesla Model S P85D that was released 10 years ago. Motor Trend reported 3.1 0-60 and 11.6 quarter. That car cost $120,000. So the Scat Pack would be a great bargain if Dodge could take a time machine to 2014.
@@TeslaPlaidChannel And that's a Plaid. A Model 3 performance will smoke the R/T version of this....honestly, Dodge took their part of an ever diminishing overall market in vehicles, where specialities are becoming way more of a thing....and they just gave it up. Ford and Chevy will gladly take that mantle and fill that void. And good on them for doing so.
Was willing to give it a chance when Tim first announced it, but with the pricing, the stats and specs out, it's a hard pass for me. Eff that lol. I'll pick up a pre-Stellantis Scat Pack or Hellcat instead.
Thanks for the preview! I'm so thankful for my 2020 Challenger Shaker Scat. This EV thing will never beat that in terms of raw firepower sound, feel and fun. Oh and does anyone else think most of these screens look so obnoxious? The integration is terrible. Like someone just slapped 'em on the dashboard.
They got the dash layout right. They intergrated the screen clusters pretty nice. Its not a radical layout change as to what Ford did to the most recent Mustangs. Two large, ill placed TV screens.
Look wise I’ll give it a 7 maybe an 8. EV gets a big fat zero. I don’t want an EV and I don’t want a 6…even if it’s got a turbo or 2. Not only that…$82 k for a Scat? I’ll pass
RacerX I love your videos, But in all honesty. I am a 70's baby add once I finally got a (Hemi) I don't see myself getting a (EV). Please keep making content. Screaming from (Cali) you are Awesome!!!!!!
Thank you for taking the time to show us this. I like the throw back to the old Dodge emblem from 62-68. But I can't see myself spending so much on artificial exhaust sound vehicle. I have such mixed emotions about this.
This is a piece of shit, overly priced battery car mimicking a muscle car I don’t see how anyone wouldn’t have clear and absolute emotions about this garbage
I've owned several Mustangs, 3 Camaros, and 2 Challengers over the years. I love those cars. Currently drive a Tesla Model Y Performance that is faster than them all (albeit not as cool). Even as an EV-friendly car guy, I'd never buy this car. Buying any EV other than a Tesla right now, is dumb. They have it figured it out. Dodge certainly does not.
Dodge needs to address the two big elephants in the room or they cant compete with Tesla. The car is too heavy and inefficient to compete. But yes the large rear opening is nice and those seats do look comfortable..

@@XDM10nice try ford sales rep.
@@NFSDriver personally I'm s Chevy guy. I appreciate what Ford is doing though.
Agreed, interior and exterior looks have a few things I am not a fan of. The big wide screens(not just on dodge, don't like them in the new mustangs or cadillacs either. That front spoiler(?) "thing" they did, and of course, the 'canned' exhaust sounds. Does it come with canned laughter and applause as well? Maybe the car will look better with some form of I.C.E. and real exhaust. Til then I stand with the rest, and will keep my 5.7's and 6.4 all day.
“Keeping my 2023 Charger hellcat red eye Widebody & my 2023 Demon 170 & my Track Hawk forever” is all I ever see in X’s comment section. Too many broke folks come here to lie about cars they don’t have and cars they can’t afford 😂😂😂
The Tesla does not even have a gauge cluster or speedometer where it is normally located. It has a stupid screen that looks like a child hot glued an iPad to the dash. Their "vegan" leather is a fancy term for vinyl.
I am digging the interior of this new Charger. I just got my Hellcat Challenger a year ago, so not in the market for a new car
trust me, tesla got this beat bro
@@devildogentertainment4904horsepower maybe. Interior? Not even close. I have been in plenty of Telsas. Their interior is plastic garbage. Not all Teslas are super fast either
The big seller is going to be the base HURRICANE SIX equipped Charger.
Honestly If it had the 392 or a 5.3L/5.5L v8 in it , it would be a nice buy. I’d rather personally scoop at dark horse tremec at that price lvl.
That's way too much money for a Dark Horse. Those should be like 50k.
It's way too much money for a Scat Pack. The basic Hellcat with roll up windows was just under $70k. You could get a wide body hellcat with zero options for this price range.
Shit you could by a Bentley for that price with the warranty 😂😂
@@vicunaleather6992 pretty much lol
i loved the design in the ads but this is so much worse + its electric = Im seeing a Mercedes Benz change of plans in the future
I'm interested in the 6 pack version
Same
Really hoping its cheaper
Ur better off just getting a bmw m3 or m4 with their inline 6 twin turbo. It will absolutely be better. The s58 engine is insane and has amazing tuning potential
@@G82Watts Well the 6 Pack is probably gonna be cheaper than the M3 or the M4.
@@tregaming07 I just don't even see the point anymore. Dodge is going bankrupt lol.
Dual ICE and electric platforms are a mess, go with a vehicle designed to be ICE from the start.
If these things went for 30K I'd be preordering one right now. I see no reason to get one of these over a Tesla.
Sadly I'm sure they're also gonna make the Inline 6 versions overpriced as well, which is a shame because I'd like to get one. The car does look great though, except for that ridiculous Scat badge.
@@overlord6815 Indeed, a Plaid is $89K for 1020HP/1050TQ. That will make this 670HP Charger a tough sell at $80K 🤔
@@TeslaPlaidChannel I also remember that Dodge supposedly has a third EV with superior performance to this Scatpack, so their "plaid equivalent" will likely being $100K+
I know Dodge is trying not to go under but these prices are not going to help them.
Why would u even get an EV then. I see alot of dodge lovers (which a lot already have) in the 80-100k price range getting a bmw m3 or m4 with the inline 6 twin turbo. 0-60 in 2.8 sec.. way faster then this EV bs.
@@G82Watts Because maybe I want an EV? Lol it's not about just performance, and I'm not looking anything in the 80-100K price range anyway. I said 30K for a reason, I'm broke lmao
@@overlord6815 oh my b sounded like u were a dodge fan and wanted a v8. Didn't realize ur an EV lover under a dodge youtube vid.
80k just to go 148 miles ‘til the next charge
NO
It just raised the value of every 6.4 and 5.7 Mopar out there. Glad I already have mine.
It’s actually better looking than I expected…but man these prices…
And don't forget Dodge Charger ev sounds I hate it
THIS WILL OUTSELL TESLA AND ALL OTHER ELECTRIC CARS! Mark my word!
Um... no, no it won't. You apparently have no clue the type of people who buy Dodge Chargers and the reasons they do. Mopar fans hate this car for all the reasons that they love Mopar. Also, the price point is too high to draw the beta cucks over from Tesla EV's.
The hurricane models might be ok, but the EV version is not wanted for the price point. A mustang or corvette is more appealing for the price.
I heard pricing starts at $40k.
That said, we should stop getting on our knees for price gouging and free-market insanity. Hit them with price controls.
RacerX, you’re trying to generate excitement but it’s not what I want from Dodge. Fake sound and electric. It’s a big pass.
Add ICE, especially V8 then it’s great. EV sales are slowing and these will just be more paperweights on the dealers lots.
I’m just showing the car.. this is not a car I would buy necessarily
It does look good, but I don't want an EV. Also I bet even the 6 cylinder version will cost close to 50k. Car prices are just outrageous
Yeah, that looks really good. I like a lot better! I think the white brings out the true shape of the car better than some of the other colors we saw. This car gives you a better idea what it looks like and it does look nice. I have to admit!
I have 2 Dodges, a RAM and 2 Jeeps in my driveway right now. If this is where FCA is going with their design they won't get another dime from me. I'm gonna drive these HEMIs till the wheels fall off.
Between everything going on with Stellantis and this being the first generation of this vehicle you would have to be out of your mind to buy one!! Especially when $30k overpriced!!!!!
I really like the design of these
Oh yes, I love it, but not loud enough.
First, it’s a Stellantis, 2nd, it’s an EV not an ICE vehicle & I don’t care how they dolled it up superficially. My son has a Tesla model Y & his tires had 24K On them & had to replace. RANGE ANXIETY, him & wife afraid to pass charging stations plus don’t use the A/ C!!! It was 100 degrees in Oklahoma & they were afraid if they used A/C they might not make it home!!
Then they bought the wrong car for where they live. Me being on the east coast I can’t go 5 miles without being near a charger
😬 can't imagine living like that after spending the big price tag for it.
I have a mach e and I love it. It works well for me but it has to fit your needs. My next car will likely be an EV.
EV’s was already a bad move by dodge. An extra 1,400lbs was a worse move. And now an 80k price tag for a 137mph governor is the WORST MOVE!
As much as ppl hate the direction dodge is going in. You cannot stop innovation. They are just keeping up with the times. Unfortunately EV is the future of cars
Needs about a 30k discount to be competitive
Ford is about to drop a four door Mustang to put the final nail in the coffin for Dodge they just let dealers look at it calling it the “Mach 4.” Get it? Four doors, Mach 4 even if the public dont like it the police fleets will buy it
A 4 door Mustang.... you call that a flex lol?
No thanks I’ll take a hemi
It's amazing how people get so excited over EV junk.
Hemi’s are made in Mexico
@@LeadfootLou duh!
Honestly Mr X, I love your content, I have been following you for years.. I am a classic car builder and mechanic. Nostalgia is what my heart follows. I own a 2018 scat pack challenger, and have been a dedicated dodge brother for the last 20 years.I have a really hard time accepting the new age fluff. I admire your dedication to promote what's up and coming , but...I know by what you and your wife have owned that you are a true dinosaur burning brother and will continue until ther is no gas to burn..
Or maybe the next fuel to burn is hydrogen..who knows keep up your enthusiasm. I appreciate what you do for our community and will be a long time follower. Thank you for what you do... I really thinkyou should find a position in the dodge promotion department.. I think you would really do well as well as the content you provide for our muscle head community. Thank you for your service..
yea he should, perhaps he can do his best to save this brand in its downward spiral, but unfortunately for you sir he’s promoting garbage. Like the car in this video. I’m not sure if it was for money, or for more exclusive access from Dodge in future events or unveils, whatever it is, this review of this car is not genuine (or at least I don’t think it is) but if he truly likes this car, then I guess he’s entitled to that. The vast majority of dodge fans see this new product and there’s absolutely nothing appealing about this. It’s not a muscle car it’s a fake and overpriced battery car.
Looks good but I well wait for the hurricane version
Guys just getting a pulse check here. I imagine this has been terribly received by people. The reason you would want a muscle car is the exact opposite reason you would buy an electric car. Like there’s basically zero appeal to these things. Who cares how fast you go in something electric. The gas engine is what makes it cool.
I'm good, I will def be keeping my 2016 Pitch Black Challenger Hellcat, optioned out. Seriously though, when I first saw the 2025 Charger Daytona, it kind of looked like a Camaro in the front.
Looks like 66’ Charger 👀
Why do you refer to stupid speaker on the back of the car as an exhaust?! You know it’s not an exhaust. You know it’s a stupid speaker. I guess you’re trying to chummy up with Dodge but be honest bruh.
Not a EV fan but it’s definitely sharp car. Give me a 6 pack with a msrp in line with the mustang GT and I might be interested in one.
An 80 grand EV hatchback was requested by exactly zero customers.
It'll be a hit if they sell it for 50-60k but no chance many people are buying that for 80k
Nice looking car... if only EVs didn't make me vomit in my mouth... they should definitely change the name. Dodge Customers would be a great name!
I’ve been waiting for a drive video. I have an appointment w/my local dealership when they start to arrive. I’m very curious what it feels like.
I asked to drive it and at first I thought they were going to let me but then they shut me down. I was disappointed
That's pretty cool. I can't wait until they arrive at dealerships. I want to check them out.
@@TwoTimesRmediasame. I wish people would just shut up and give them a chance. The design is so awesome and retro. I'm super excited to get my hands on one.
@@AP383BB me too , people really have a hard time dealing with change. Progression and evolution stops for no one. Carburators are "gone" and when that happened people were outraged also. Yet you can still buy them now. It will be the same for the V8 engines. To me, these cars look amazing especially when compared to the bland Tesla's interior and exteriors. The sound is actually pretty cool. It's a concept that I saw in the Vince Vaughn movie " The dilemma" .
@@AP383BB agree.
Many of us understand why Dodge is being forced into EV's due to MPG limits etc, and I think they've done well on their first design, I like it. But the problem they'll have is that even if people like it for an EV, they aren't in the market for one. Seeing the new interior and tech without an ICE engine just tanks any excitement for it. Hopefully the Hurricane version will be a decent car.
👍 Very nice looking design. But worth noting that the 2019 Tesla S Raven also had ~670HP, running 10.4 at 125MPH. (So that kind of EV power feels kinda “5 years ago”.) We made 1001 trouble-free dragstrip passes with ours. Hope this one is just as reliable! 😃
Agreed. These horsepower levels for EV seems about 5 years behind the times.
@@danielkimball3037 And as he says in the video, EVs aren’t for everyone. But for those that want the power and reliability, a Plaid is $89K for 1020HP/1050TQ. That will make this Charger a tough sell at $80K 🤔
@TeslaPlaidChannel 100% correct. Why buy this when a 1000hp+ Plaid is so close in price and a proven 1/4 mile monster..if it were in the high 40, low 50k range then there would be a good argument for this car..I don't really understand Dodge's rational with this car
The quoted quarter mile time time (11.7 seconds) is more in line with the 2015 Tesla Model S P85D that was released 10 years ago. Motor Trend reported 3.1 0-60 and 11.6 quarter. That car cost $120,000. So the Scat Pack would be a great bargain if Dodge could take a time machine to 2014.
@@TeslaPlaidChannel And that's a Plaid. A Model 3 performance will smoke the R/T version of this....honestly, Dodge took their part of an ever diminishing overall market in vehicles, where specialities are becoming way more of a thing....and they just gave it up. Ford and Chevy will gladly take that mantle and fill that void. And good on them for doing so.
Am I the only one that thinks it looks more like the modern Camaro than anything Dodge?
Was willing to give it a chance when Tim first announced it, but with the pricing, the stats and specs out, it's a hard pass for me. Eff that lol. I'll pick up a pre-Stellantis Scat Pack or Hellcat instead.
Thanks for the preview! I'm so thankful for my 2020 Challenger Shaker Scat. This EV thing will never beat that in terms of raw firepower sound, feel and fun. Oh and does anyone else think most of these screens look so obnoxious? The integration is terrible. Like someone just slapped 'em on the dashboard.
They got the dash layout right. They intergrated the screen clusters pretty nice. Its not a radical layout change as to what Ford did to the most recent Mustangs. Two large, ill placed TV screens.
Look wise I’ll give it a 7 maybe an 8. EV gets a big fat zero. I don’t want an EV and I don’t want a 6…even if it’s got a turbo or 2. Not only that…$82 k for a Scat? I’ll pass
I dearly miss the old primer paint job hot rods from the 80s. It was a rime when you didn't have to be rich to have a cool car. 😎
I will definitely be buying one of these Charger Daytona EVs when I can afford it. Most likely I'll have to buy it used.
That’s embarrassing
@@sinarquista9895 No, you're embarrassing for just being a hater.

TESLA has the supercharger network.
Dodge doesn’t.

Thanks buddy 🙏
Thank you for taking the time to show us this. I like the throw back to the old Dodge emblem from 62-68. But I can't see myself spending so much on artificial exhaust sound vehicle. I have such mixed emotions about this.
This is a piece of shit, overly priced battery car mimicking a muscle car I don’t see how anyone wouldn’t have clear and absolute emotions about this garbage
I've owned several Mustangs, 3 Camaros, and 2 Challengers over the years. I love those cars. Currently drive a Tesla Model Y Performance that is faster than them all (albeit not as cool). Even as an EV-friendly car guy, I'd never buy this car. Buying any EV other than a Tesla right now, is dumb. They have it figured it out. Dodge certainly does not.
yup they aren’t appealing to anyone with this car.
But slower than a 20 year old Toyota on a long trip.
The Best thing is the 360 Camera, and interior. And the Body is ok. Engine wise forget it. I will stay with my Hemi's.
Dodge needs to address the two big elephants in the room or they cant compete with Tesla. The car is too heavy and inefficient to compete. But yes the large rear opening is nice and those seats do look comfortable..
The Charger EV was born the day someone said, "Let's build a car around two large iPads."
Uhhhh I think I'll stick with my Scatpack T/A
It looks a lot better than the previous model. Should make it in v8 as well
EV 🤦♂️ the time it takes to charge is ridiculous 😞 1:23
No thanks, I rather take a used salvage title hellcat with a 120k miles and 6 prior owners.
“In person it looks… looks a little different” 😂😂😂
I understand why you’re hyping this up racerx, but eventually you’ll lose credibility if you try to keep dodge/stellantis happy with your content
I bought a 23 challenger scatpack for a reason. I do not want EV if i can help it.. i don't care if they're faster off the line, i like my 6.4
