Dodge Charger Daytona R/T, which was welcomed in the future of the Dodge’s Electric Muscle Future, for 2026.
According to a report from MPARINSIDERSThe SCAT package variable will now lead the Daytona collection, which is a great axis in the EV Stellants strategy.
Charger Daytona R/T is originally presented with bold aspirations, and it was designed to provide an accessible gate in electrical performance. By its double motor dual preparation 456 hp, and an optional set for the direct stage with an area of 509 hp, it looked ready to stimulate both muscular car fans and new expatriates. However, market facts have drawn a different image.
industry and Media reports Highlighting the basic issue: not only buyers were biting. Despite its impressive specifications and nostalgia design, R/T has struggled to justify its price, starting at $ 60,000. At this level, buyers expect either more performance or more distinct features. Without a strong sales, Dodge made a difficult call to attach the R/T variable for 2026, and instead chose focus on the edges that resonate better with customers.
As we were informed in December, the EV charger was launched with an external marketing message to “keeping the planet from self -driving sleep.” The goal was to maintain the Dodge – Muscle brand, aggression, and driver’s participation – in the electrical age. The Daytona R/T charger was supposed to be the ideal balance between the price and the performance, but it seems that the target audience was not ready to make this jump at this price.
The most important thing, this does not completely spell the end of the Ditona charger. Top -performance models such as the SCAT and Banshee package are still in the pipeline, and it is interesting that they are modified for competitiveness in prices. According to what is reported, many rots see price cuts, indicating that Stelantis is serious about making these vehicles more attractive and accessible.
For lovers, ready -made meals are clear: the electric muscle car is not going anywhere, but car manufacturers still know how to sell them. The R/t demise is less failed and more than just a calibration – the most daring lines need to stay flexible in the face of the demand for consumer.
