The 2025 Charger Daytona Scatpack - Faster Than a Redeye but WILL IT FLOP? +550hp Hurricane
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 мар 2024
- Dodge just announced the details for their all new 2025 Charger Daytona EV and their 2025 Charger Six Pack. I give you all the details on these brand new offerings and let you know what I think. The 2025 Charger Daytona Scatpack will boast 2 electric motors making 670 all wheel drive horsepower and the RT version will make 496 (11 more than today's scatpack). The Hurricane inline six cylinder twin turbo version from the Six Pack will make 550hp in it's high output form. What do you think of the brand new charger. Will these cars be a success or a major failure?

A muscle car isn’t just speed. It’s feel, it’s rumble, it guttural. This is a Powerwheels toy from Walmart
Facts!!!!
Get with it maaaan 😁 That was the old days maaaan - now it is the silent joy of being pushed back in your seat, tears streaming backward out of your eyes as you feel your stool working it's way out of your anus due to the insane acceleration. LOL
Everybody high fiving each other as they get out from a test run, "Man did you fill your shorts also?", "Hell yah I did!"
Facts it’s like the lion being the king of the jungle….he’s not the fastest or the biggest but they all respect him
It's amazing how hard someone will try to sell u something you don't want or never asked for.
Seems that way with all the 2023 Challengers and Chargers rusting in peace on dealer lots! How is your Hemi car resale value doing? Bet it goes way down!
For those of us that can't afford to pay $60k+ for a vehicle anything that will reduce the cost of ownership will be welcome. What I'm waiting for is when someone with the 420 HP gas version is complaining that their cost of ownership is double to triple that of someone with the 670 HP electric version.
Who tried to sell you something?
DOA BANKRUPTCY
@@lisam4503 resale value will go up even more
Dodge clearly doesn't understand its customers. They will soon.
True
It is a French company now. I doubt it will survive much longer.
@risby1930 Yea I seen the new old a** owner on RUclips
@@risby1930 Yeah the French never won any major battles, so yeah it's not gonna fly high
Who are their customers though? Sure, a lot of car enthusiasts. But most Dodge Challenger owners are just people who wanted a cool car and got the Challenger SXT. So I don't think the new Charger's going to bomb. It's a good looking car that's both available as a EV AND a ICE vehicle. I'm sure it will do just fine as long as it's priced right.
They should have changed the bee to a battery and called it a spark pack
Bunny (Everready 🤔🤣)
Flame pack
The spark pack 😭👍👍
Coil pack😂😂
How about a duck and call it the Quack Pack.
Hey man just got my scatpack charger EV now I’m gonna do a mid speaker delete and put new rear muffler speakers in 12 inch woofers LMFAO 😂
That’s good Bro 👍 😂 needed that after watching the sadness, thank you!
Mid speaker delete 😂😂😂
Sounds fast....🤪🤪🤪
I know a guy
Mid speaker delete is the funniest thing ever 😭😭😭😭😭😭
If they don’t change their mind and bring back the V8 they will end up like Pontiac
Well, they could change their minds, continue to spends hundreds of millions a year on epa credits, and then be forced to change back once the deadline comes
Didn't Pontiac had the G8? Serious question what happened, they seemed like decent fun cars?
@@jointhefist1016or could tell the epa and government agencies to go pound sand. They set standards inn the 70s and they were met by the 2020s. 80% reduction in emissions and doubled the fuel mileage. But all they did was move the standards. And if you believe we will ever meet zero carbon. Well you cannot ride a horse or walk. So you have to change government first. Make them stay within the constitution and out of our business. This can be done by the Auto Corporations. They just need to stick together and be on the same page.
Totally out of business
Exactly!
Fake shifting, fake sounds...what a joke!!!
Because y’all keep bitching about how quiet EVs are😂
@@Akosa117 That may be true but any real car person wouldn't be considering buying a milkfloat anyway and couldn't care less what they sound like.

You can turn off the sound so nobody will know you're gay.
Lol like the Brotherhood fraternity isn't more gay!
I think dodge is going to loose a lot of money and they don’t realize it
I actually got sick to my stomach with them trying to make people believe they're anti establishment when Ford of all companies actually are by continuing to build V8 muscle cars. If people wanted EV they probably already purchased tesla. The 6 cylinder hurricane sounds like a toy car would. Calling these cars scat pack is disgusting and not worthy of the badge!
It's almost like Dodge should just change their name.
Well if u have to keep paying millions and billions of dollars to keep making that hemi it just worth it cause it need to be updated
I'm good on Tesla. Everyone has them and they are boring. btw how weak is your stomach
Go buy a Ford! No need to get sick.
Ford made an electric mustang suv and called their own truck GAY. How do yall keep looking over those facts 🤣
It might be great as far as electric goes, but it's still electric. I just hate the whole scam.
Flop flop like a fish out of water
550 hp engine. And it’s going to fail only because you idiots only care about V8s lol

@@e.c.mracing7478 wdym 🤣 there is a huge difference between driving an electric car and a gas v8 and I've been in other electric cars if u needed "proof" for some reason. Stop stroking dodges ego

@@itsjustnopinionok 0-60 in 3.5 seconds is hardly impressive these days. Keep thinking that...

Dodge Stellantis just gave the biggest middle finger to every Muscle Car Enthusiast. The Dodge brothers turning on their graves
You think the Dodge brothers were spinning when they saw the K-car or Caravan?
I understand they were trying to give the FU middle finger to the CAFE standards while making an EV capable of being fun in the right configuration. But I get the feeling this new Daytona will be very disappointing when in Rwd mode trying to get the maximum range.
@@GrandPines323 There was no reason for Dodge Stellantis to boot-out the V8 if Ford is still pushing the V8 engine on the Mustang.
If Dodge would “try” a EV “muscle car” and had a redesign more current V8 RWD Challenger, Charger ect. It would strive to please both crowds with minimal backlash. Instead this happened.
Clearly they aren't , and seemed interested ... LOL

True but then get passed by the volvo when the ev is on the side of the road needing a charge. (Reality)

Me too love the Turbo Hatchbacks of the 80's. This reminds me of the Daytona Turbo Z. Even the red colour is the same. Just need a kicker box in the hatch and off to the beach. The best part is the I6 turbo has more power than a 5.7 V8 and the I6 twin turbo has more power than a 6.4 V8. With AWD will absolutely destroy the V8's. Is like the days when a IROC RT Daytona has more power than a 5.0 Mustang and the Spirit RT was the fastest 4 door sedan in North America. Welcome to the 80's again love it! Old school all the way.
Dodge could announce a 250hp V8 and dodge fans would choose it over the 550 hurricane. Because it’s a V8

The numbers are better but it's not about HP or Torque. It's about the spirit/sound of the V8!

@@e.c.mracing7478 I’m honestly not interested in the ev. That i6 may be an American 2JZ and I’m pretty amped about it. If it were me, I wouldn’t have parodied Bill and Ted in the reveal video. I would have parodied Fast and the Furious 1. “This will decimate all” speech would have made so much sense for new i6. AND Dom’s “winning is winning” speech would make sense for the ev switch. And I’m sure they could have got the guys from FF1 too. They could call the i6 a buster. “The buster keeps us on the streets!” Missed opportunity.
550hp Hurricane 4-door with AWD could be a killer daily/family car, if it isn't outrageously priced.
Pricing is going to make or break these new vehicles
Pricing will be astronomical. Take that to the bank.
with stupid prices on '24 trucks and Jeeps you know this new Charger Scat is gonna be north of 100k. 1%ers unite! The rest of us, can't afford it.
Shitty Quality Will Break This EV
@@devonp5079 This ^ You won't find me anywhere near these new generation, new tech cars....especially from Stellantis. This aint the same Dodge that perfected the previous platform Chargers/Challengers. They'll be working the bugs out of these for awhile.
It doesn’t matter what the price will be honestly. Just like the rest of the EVs, outside of Tesla, these won’t sell neither.
"see if it feels like a real car" kind of says it all lol
Tim K 🤡
Sounds like a Ferrari with a damaged exhaust. 😂
It weighs almost 5,900 lbs. That is absurd. A Model S Plaid weighs 4,800 lbs and runs 9.2s. Even a Model 3 Performance runs 11.4s completely stock and it weighs 4,050 lbs.
yep, EV to EV, Teslas will annihilate these things in the track and drag strip. And they will cost the same price no doubt.
Bet this is why the Banshee release date hasn’t happened. Struggling to beat the Plaid’s performance spec
Because the tesla is piece of shit with nothing in it.
They didn't crack a code, they just sold people less for more and called it "spartan" then bragged about their margins...
A lot of people fail to realize how expensive tires will be on this car. 305F/325R tires are not small by any means, then add AWD, plus calculating in the weight of this car (estimated over 5,800lbs) is going to put a dent in a lot of wallets. Being staggared, you won't be able to rotate tires and just the shear weight of the car will eat them alive. Plus, plan on paying more in taxes (depending on your state) due the weight of this vehicle. To put it in perspective, a 2023 Widebody Hellcat Charger is 4,586lbs....
I currently own a Challenger and I’m not able to purchase any EV because I live in a condo and the HOA has not provisions for an electric car charging station. Besides that, I don’t want an EV. I’ve been paying attention to how the dealerships have been gouging customers as well and that makes me really stay far away from dealers that do that.
How do you get the race fuel smell?
I want that 6 pack
Three Two Barrel Carburetors,awesome!!! 340 Six Pack and 440 Six Pack awesome!
@@mypronouniswtf5559 I was hoping that they were going to release one. I just want to see the price
It’s not a real V8 440 Six Pack but I’m definitely going to make it a Six Pack 💯
U would
according to Dodge's website "the Charger Daytona Scat Pack is expected to target 0-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and target a 1/4 mile in 11.5 seconds" I am not impressed at all. I can just modify my 2015 scat pack and hit the same 1/4. This is a total failure. just another reason to not purchase this EV trash can.
Not everyone needs Hellcat power. Why not keep at least the 5.7 and sup it up some for enthusiasts and do the turbos and EV to go after track times? I'm not even in the market for one of these cars. I have a Silverado LTZ. Long story short, they are having to put a new motor in it. Has the 6.2 and they are backordered for months. I have to drive something obviously, so I got a Civic Si as a daily. It's fun and has a really great 6-speed manual.
Dodge without V8s is like Mickey D’s without 🍟 🥴🫠
Did fine in the 80’s and 90’s. Even broke record sales
So....we all know Stellantis has had the largest pricing increase out of all other manufacturers. If anyone even thinks for a second that ANY of these new models/new generation is going to be anywhere near affordable, you are on drugs. These cars will be for rich people. Period.
The ice models might not bomb, but the evs will.
I agree, I actually like the SixPack Charger.
I’m a hard no on any socialist EV.
Then get the six pack, and if you dont like the shift from v8s then vote out joe biden. Easy
Why politics gotta be associated with this
@@JRLL81_because they are forcing this shit 🤡
@@JRLL81_because this it’s happening because of politics 🤷🏼♂️
Politics really?
The key point is pricing. If Dodge and it’s dealerships continue overpricing. It will not help sells. Not everyone can afford six figure vehicles.
Exactly the absolute only way this works is if they can get the price point down cause your selling something no one wants and basically everyone is getting forced in to this so it’s pretty much pick your brand of electric and v6 or In line 6 in this case car
And those who can aren't buying a bloody dodge, especially not some boring AF EV.
Soo EV with fake shifting and sound. Hum...will this be the first trans vehicle 😂
Its pronouns are Rev-Rev and Vroom.
Legendary 😂😂😂
I'd buy a 2025 Charger six pack the day it comes out IF I had the money. But since it's prob going to be like $60k, there's no way I can afford one
Agree
The 6 pack
Is where it’s at
Lighter
Awd
More affordable
Tuning potential
No ev fires or freezing in the winter
No just massive gasoline fires, ICE vehicles are known to have way more fires, it's just not in the media as much.
I’m not sure why Dodge insists on always giving 4-door buyers the short end of the stick in terms of performance. Why does the 4-door only get the standard output hurricane? Pretty disappointing imo.
Coupe Charger nickname "Challenger".
Here's my price prediction: R/T 49,999, Scat Pack 69,999, Banshee 99,999, 6Pack 39,999, all starting prices.
Add $20,000.00 to each of the electric is what I’m thinking. Then add $35,000.00 to the twin turbo. All way beyond what I would to pay for a car.
@@charleslandry5883and don’t forget what we are paying in taxes already to reduce the sale prices already.
What don’t people understand. The regulations and the amount of money they were paying for credits is unsustainable. Blame regulators not Dodge.
You got that right. People need to educate themselves on why this is happening.
Cow tows! Doesn't Ford have the same regulators. There not cow towin to regulations.
They have made billions quarterly and at the same time raised the pricing on Challenger/Chargers....the 10k line per v8 has already been assessed on the consumer......people still paid for what they wanted. This is the end of Dodge.
They have one car that they were barely selling before the new model, all their trucks are turbos or EV, and they have the Mach E, so yes, they can keep one V8. Dodge sells far fewer vehicles then Ford does. If you don't like it, go tell your congressman, because they just ramped up the MPG requirements again. 49mpg fleet average by 2024. My scat pack was getting 11mpg or worse most of the time. Great car, not sustainable for Dodge. If they didn't try to change, they would be gone anyway.
Are we going to be able to buy performance parts from Mr Coffee, speed queen and General electric? I don't know whether to cry or laugh, but I know one thing for certain, very disappointed because of no V8 option.
I am all for it. Got a EV already and i like it, i don't want a gas car again. How fast is the charging though.
The question, if they will install the network of Charger Superchargers or people will have to use superchargers like other EV brands.
The HO 6 pack sounds interesting
I’m glad and thankful you’re still posting while dealing with a lot in your personal life, we genuinely appreciate you X 🙏✊
Thanks buddy
Flopady flop flop flop It's a Vegie Burger!! Fake sound is probably the funniest thing since the Honda Valkyrie was made to be a Harley. I don't want to go to Midas for new speakers!!!
I don’t see many asking about how long these batteries last and how much are they to be replaced? I will say I’m actually very impressed, it looks great and it’s fast, and could sound great, I’m actually interested but I love my scat.
I don't care how fast it is. Give me the slow V8 all day
I have bought a lot od chrysler products over the years. I currently have 3 chargers (66-09), 19 redeye challenger, 06 Ram 3500, 07 pacifica, and 23 jeep grand cherokee. 4 are Hemis. 1 gen 2 and 3 gen 3s. Some are my wifes but i bought them all.
I will concede that these cars will be quick. Electric motors have infinite torque at zero rpm. But that curve drops fast. So qtr mile or zero to 60 these will be quick. But when you use that it will burn the juice ( or coal - since that is how most of the juice is created). These wont have much range on a charge. Hope i am wrong. I need chrysler to stay in buisiness so i can buy parts. Lol.
But the reason i wont ever be buying a new chrysler product isn't about the EVs it is about how my dealer decided to to work me over on my attemp to buy a last call car. After i gave up on him the rest of the dealers were even worse. So you didnt see a last call car on that list. That said my dailey driver is a 96 buick. My next car will probably be a vet. I never thought i would say that outloud.
I will never buy an ev. This move to electric isnt about anything but changing how amaercans identify.
Great channel racer x. Keep the news coming. Hope the stage kits come for the EVs. Im still waiting to buy my sage 3 kit they promised us for my redeye.
Any news regarding the pentastar v6? Things sre gett8ng way out of hand cost wise for base models.
Dodge if you want to get people excited about this new car then have the car available, not a video with the car coming up in 29 months
No thanks I am a Mopar guy but they can shove Ev's I don't care how fast it is hello Mustang they have a V8 they have the balls to keep it
Love the design if only it has an engine 😁
I feel like they should have included the door scallops in the design to give it more character
Haha yes and some range numbers. Leaving those out suggest the range not impressive
It's not a charger without the door scallops. It's a, what did He call it? A melted jelly bean, put in the scallops.
Yeah it's missing something. Smooth not aggressive like the Charger/Challenger...
Agree, they didn’t take any risk designing that one. Milk toast.
Someone should put that Hurricane Engine in a Dodge Dart
Or in a Hornet
I have a 1974 dart swinger that I'm restoring and I was thinking of doing that but I ended up with a junk yard 5.7 from a ram but has bad heads
@@MikeShelby67 The Hurricane 6 won't fit in a Hornet.
One other question, how much variation is there on range (i.e. battery discharge) due to weather and driving vs. something that is powered by liquid fuel?
You already know the answer - avoid cold weather if you expect good range.
Would you give us the link to that video that you show clips of call I have not been able to find it
The only two things I dislike about the styling are that it's a hatchback and there is no door scalloping. Everything else is just the perfect mix of modern and classic coke-bottle muscle car.
The original charger 1966 was a hatch back.. This is. Just a modern? Day one.
Major FLOPS incoming!!!
Nope
I hate to say it brother but you might be right
@@user-iu8ho4gf4mnb buying ts but the ice version
Something tells me, I don't think so.
Hemi, Sorry Dodge time to move on to the Mustang that has V8 internal combustion engine!!!!
6pack HO. For me. The video made me a believer unless the dealership mark them up. Scat pack isn’t SRT to my knowledge. Scat packs were RT’s and SRTs were its own trims
Im not the least bit interested in the electric version but fairly curious about the gas one. Im not crazy about having all wheel drive. Just a rear wheel drive four door with a strong six cylinder would suit my needs.
So the difference between the RT and the scat pack is the stage kit basically when it comes down to to it…?
Thank you Dodge, but I'll stick with my gasoline muscle 💪🏾.
I'll believe that it's faster than a Hellcat when I see it in action. The damn thing weighs close to 6000 lbs and has a top speed of 134 mph. Power to weight ratio is a thing. a 3.3 second 0-60 is impressive but that seems like it's all it has going for it. At this point, it seems like the 6-pack is going to put out better performance than the EV.
You couldn’t pay me to sell my soul to EVs for the prospect of beating a few people on the road before the battery dies. IF they’re under $75K, I’d take a gander at a 4-Door Six Pack HO, as a grand tourer, and providing it’s somewhat tunable. Give the people what they want, Stellantis!
The need a small gas turbine driving a generator which powers the electric drive motors.
Anybody know what the total vehicle weight will be on the six-pack models?
Nope, but much less weight than the EV versions.
The faster than a redeye claim needs to have a giant asterisks next to it until they prove it. My take is that they mean on an unprepped surface because a stock redeye with traction is an animal and runs 10s in the 1/4 (10.937@130.2 for a bone stock car on stock tire)
Not faster.. it will accelerate faster then It does. 11.5 in the quarter mile with a top speed of 138. Specs for the cars are out on Dodge
@@williamrose7818 those numbers are as slow as the Durango and no where near the redeye unless we use car and driver/motortrend results. 🤔
I'd say for the ev's case ,it's slow,but the I6 will be another story. Considering there will be a big weight difference between the ev and gas, car may weight as much as the 5.7L charger while weighting less than hellcats,because keep in mind, the V6 awd charger in itself weights atleast 4200lbs at best,and the I6 weights about 100lbs more almost than the V6 bit weights less than all of dodges V8s so it could sit within the 42-4300lb range at best. That practically means that the Sixpack are very capable of pulling low 11s similarly to the G80 m3s(despite the weight differences,they still come with more power from factory tho).
What's the range for this elec. musclecar? How long does it take to recharge?
The only thing faster than this thing off the line will be the depreciation and the demise of the brand. Maybe Fisker can bail them out?
I love how that new charger looks so much more like the general Lee style charger and it's a two door just like the original
This fake noise crap is straight out of Ron Howard’s movie “The Dilemma”
I think I'd respect it more if it had the soundtrack of a blender revving. So I can show people I mean business 😠
Great detailed content!
This is so sad to see where Dodge is going..
Dodge didn't learn anything from Ford with there Mach E
A lot to unpack here first the ev rt 0-60 4.7 will be getting dragged by the current 392’s, also the ev scat 1/4 mile 11.5 just a little better than a 1320. Nobody’s talking about there nearly 6k lbs crub weight. Power to weight lives yesterday, today and tomorrow.
Thanks for the video! From what I understand the 550hp Six Pack is only right at 180 cubic inches...so don't be surprised if it does not respond well or can't take the pressure of upping the turbo boost unless it has some serious bottom-end beefing up. 550hp out of 180 cubes is really pushing it...But I am also interested to see how it compares to a regular Cat in the quarter mile....The car looks like a 1967 Barracuda Fastback from dead-on straight behind and a 1968 Charger from side-behind...very good looking car! And Glory Be to Dodge for bring back the Six Pack moniker!!
Great looking car, somebody already mentioned it needs the door scallops and if they are not going to offer a V8 like the Mustang they are missing a great opportunity.
Thanks for the review. It will be interesting. If I were to drive an EV this would be on my short list. I like that Dodge is trying hard to appeal to the performance crowd. Lets see how it plays out. The two door Charger is pretty cool but the front seems 'bland?'...which is unDodgery. Most Dodge's have very identifiable fronts (I drive a Durango). Thanks again for the imagery as well!
Putting that bumble bee on an electric car is ludicrous. They should be forced to put an electric eel on it.
Or just put a dinosaur on it. That's what Dodge will be in a few years.
Notice Dodge didn't suggest a price. There's an old saying. If you have to ask, you can't afford it. The R/T will start at about $80K and go up from there. Initially, the EV Charger won't sell. Tesla has the market cornered on EVs. Since EVs are all Tesla builds, the cars will be built well and give customers better value for the money spent. Profit margin will be the key when it comes to the Charger. Look for inflated prices that excludes most people. The target for Stellantis will be people that want status and performance and really don't care about price.
Thank you for the content and information about these vehicles
Will be interesting who will be purchasing these vehicles. Most V8 enthusiasts who have supported Dodge will probably be out of the marketing equation
EVs should be offered as an alternative not as a replacement for ICEs.
demand for them is falling off. imo dodge is taking a serious risk.
They're literally offering you the option in the same car...
I'm not interested in the electric blenders, but i am going to see if i can order the new Scatpack fender badges for my 2019. Love thenew bee logo design.
So no manual transmission option for the hurricane?
This came out on my birthday today cool
You can make a dog sound like a goat, but it’s still a dog. Part of owning a muscle car is the ability to work on it, the ability to buy aftermarket parts to make it go faster. This vehicle will also take away skills, meaning as a young man. Buying my first hot rod means I would have to work on it and learn how to work on it. Once you know, tools, and how a system works it relates to other skills that might relate to what you learned by working on a car. What is plugging in a car teaching?
Also, my fear of everything being electrical is the government will have more power to shut down your vehicle when they don’t want you driving it. You might think that sounds silly, but does it really?
very depressing reading this coment, you're 1000% correct though.
Im pretty happy about the 550 HP six pack with AWD. People are too hung up on there V8 sound. I'm happy there is an ice version and it won't be that big of deal when you can launch and put that power down with AWD. This will be faster than a dark horse from light to light. I'd rather excelerate fast than sound fast and go slow. Most people i know are excited about it except for some of these channels were people just want to complain. They made the hemi for 20 years and i have 4 of them but I'm ready for something new. You can have both.
Hellcats n scats arent slow tho
@@mucleboy0151 I know I own them but it's hard to get 1000+ HP down from a street light vs AWD. I run MT radials but have been walked by an AWD GTR that had about 650 HP. They can get to far ahead from a dig. From a roll I could beat him but I'm excited about an ice version that has AWD. Maybe they will come out with a new more efficient V8 in the future but for now I'm still happy about the I6 with 550hp for now. Way better than EV only.
@@michaelwaiwood5629 i do too but u gotta be talkin drag because no way in hell u need or can use 1000 om da street as long as i can beat 99 percent on da street is plenty good enough for me but thats jus me with them making these awd gonna change the whole game up
The Corvette eray hybrid goes fast and sounds loud plus no gas guzzler tax.
'People are too hung up on there V8 sound' enjoy sounding like a honda civic. The 'Hurricane' I6 doesn't even sound good for an I6. BMW I6s sound amazing. The Hurricane sounds like shit. And it might be faster than a RWD car light to light but it'll get destroyed by the AWD V8s still being made by BMW, Benz and Audi...
No V8, no thank you.
The i6 is a better design. 1000 plus hp capable. Direct Connection’s Cat X i6 is targeting 1500
The other videos I've watched show the powershot button provides an extra 40hp for 30 seconds.
From what I saw in the release video from Dodge is the Daytona Scatpack stage 2 has a 335hp motor in the front and another in the rear to make 670hp.
So here is my take on this ...
without using the powershot button, does this mean you're driving around in Awd mode with 630hp and in Rwd mode with only 315hp for the Scatpack stage 2 with a max range in Rwd of 268 miles ÷2 = 134 miles in Awd mode?
• here's the numbers for the standard RT stage zero: 335hp -40hp powershot = 295hp, Awd ÷2=147.5hp in Rwd with 315mi range and 157.5mi range in Awd.
• The RT stage 1: 496hp -40hp powershot = 456hp ÷2=228hp in Rwd mode.
How much does this Battery Electric Vehicle weigh? 6,000lbs? With less than 150hp in Rwd mode, the RT stage zero may not be very exciting during those 315 miles of driving. The RT stage 2 would be a little better.
...
The lighter weight Daytona SixPack with the hybrid Hurricane i6 with 420hp or the Hurricane i6 High Output 550hp will be the cars to wait for, Imo. The hybrid system may be like the eTorque in the Ram 1500.
What's the miles between charges how long does it hold up in winter conditions
317 miles on the RT and 260ish on the Scat Pack.
Can we drop some links to the new videos in the details for this one?
Tim K: It is gonna outaccelerate a Hellcat Redeye.
Me: It makes no real sound so it will never compare to a Redeye. NO THANKS! 😒
