The new Dodge Charger Daytona EV has only been on sale for a short while, but the automaker has already trimmed the lineup, removing the base R/T model due to flagging demand. Beyond the fact that its core demographic wants nothing to do with EVs, Dodge’s problems with the car are likely related to its price and two-door configuration, but the company is set to solve one of those problems with a new sedan configuration for 2026.

The Daytona sedan is nearly identical to the two-door model underneath and will only be sold in the Scat Pack configuration, like the coupe. The two-door Scat Pack’s price tag exceeds $70,000 before the myriad of discounts and incentives Dodge offers, so the sedan will likely be a bit more expensive to start.

That said, the car’s performance is nothing to sneeze at, even if it lacks the Hellcat V8’s pleasing roar. Its dual-motor powertrain produces 670 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque, and it has a temporary boost feature that delivers another 40 horsepower for up to 10 seconds. That gives it a mid-11-second quarter-mile time, and Dodge says it’s the quickest muscle car in the world.

It remains to be seen if the new sedan will help boost sales, on the electric side, but to be safe, Dodge plans to release gas-powered variants later this year, sporting the Hurricane inline-six-cylinder engines.

Andarris Here in the Toronto area I haven't seen a 2006-2012 with intact rocker pannels for over two years now. I presume everywhere around the Great Lakes is the same ? They were super cheap dhring the first two years of the pandemic - could get one with less than 85K for around $6500 certified or a little higher mileage for $5000. Glad I skipped it, even in 2021 some of the 10's &11's were displaying corosion like you'd see on a 7 year older Impala, Camry or Accord. Also the mid-model switch to EPS made me balk at the few clean ones I found.

Big Al from Oz gidday mites how are yall feelin today? Want to have a barbie? We are right here gettin dee fire ready
Michael S6 The 3 Amigos better hope that the oil spike is short lived as 4-5 dollar a gallon gas would put a damper on their cash cows especially "Ford's strategic shift" of killing off the escape/Lincoln cousin. Most other automakers have a full line of vehicles with much better full economy. GM is sucking air and its Cadillac devision is mostly EV and geriatric line up of ICE cars and SUV's that were supposed to be phased out this year. The expensive gas may push shoppers toward EV but GM's horrible EV reliability is a barrier.
Tane94 I read the GM press release about first quarter sales 2026 vs 2025 and Buick is getting its butt kicked:Buick Total* 41,654 61,822 -32.6 The future is bleak for Buick.
