Power up to 670 HP, Straight-Six and Sedan, New Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack EV 2024
- 2 months ago
The top-trim Scat Pack EV hits 60 mph in 3.3 seconds, though the lighter 550-hp Sixpack HO will likely be slower when it arrives in 2025.
The wait is finally over. A four-door sedan body and two combustion engines producing 420 hp (426 PS) and 550 hp (558 PS) join the lineup next year, and there will also be police packages, meaning Dodge has or will have most of the bases covered. And this party is just for beginners. Expect a ton more configurations featuring some crazy high-performance stuff (hopefully involving the ICE and EV variety) in the coming years.
Both two- and four-door body styles ride on the same 121-inch (3,074 mm) wheelbase, which is only 0.8 inches (20 mm) longer than the old Charger, but overall length has swelled by more than 8 inches (203 mm). ) to 206.6 inches (5,248 mm). The 2024 car is also about 5 inches (127 mm) wider than the old Charger and Challenger. It's a huge car, longer and wider than Europe's standard-wheelbase Mercedes S-Class. No wonder it weighs a monstrous 5,838 lbs (2,648 kg) in EV guise.
The Charger is switching to Stellantis' new STLA Large platform for 2024, and it's this move that makes EV powertrains possible. Dodge will introduce more models and power options, including an 800-volt Tesla Plaid chaser with a two-speed transmission called the Banshee, resulting in six 400-volt configurations, all with the same dual-motor setup. , single-speed gearbox and 100 kWh battery, but offer different power levels. There are currently only two 400-volt cars; The R/T and Scat Pack are both equipped with Direct Connect eStage power upgrades that will be optional on future models.
The R/T produces 496 hp (503 PS / 370 kW) and 404 lb-ft (548 Nm) thanks to the standard Stage 1 kit rated at 40 hp (40 PS), which can take it to a top speed of 97 km/h (60 mph). It's enough. h) 4.7 seconds and completed the quarter in 13.1 seconds. Step up to the Scat Pack and Stage 2 upgrade (rated at 80 hp / 81 PS) and unlock 670 hp (680 PS / 500 kW) and 627 lb-ft (850 Nm), dropping the 60 mph acceleration time to 3.3 seconds. and quarter mile time reached 11.5 seconds. These power figures, incidentally, are only achieved if the driver adds 40 hp (40 PS) for 15 seconds by pressing the Power Shot button under the steering wheel.
Interestingly, the Scat Pack (seen above) reaches a top speed of 216 km/h (134 mph), while the R/T is only slightly faster at 221 km/h (137 mph). However, while this difference may be academic for most buyers, the range difference will not be. The R/T can cover a claimed 317 miles (510 km) on a charge, but the Scat Pack is out of amp at 260 miles (418 km). Both take the same time to charge: 5 to 80 percent in 411 minutes with a Level 2 charger, and 32.5 minutes when connected to a 350 kW supply.
