Earlier this week, 2024 Dodge Charger EV pricing allegedly leaked, claiming that the all-new model was slated to start out at $68,570 in R/T guise, and $82,170 for the Scat Pack. These prices positioned the new Dodge Charger EV far above the 2024 Ford Mustang, and in fact, one could almost purchase two new EcoBoost models for the price of one new Charger. However, Stellantis responded to this leak by revealing 2024 Dodge Charger EV pricing itself, showing that the “leaked” figures were a bit off.
The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T will launch with an MSRP of $59,595, while the Charger Daytona Scat Pack is slated to start out at $73,190, prices that exclude a $1,995 destination charge. Stellantis also revealed that both of these EV muscle cars will qualify for the full $7,500 federal tax credit, however, only if customers opt to lease them rather than purchase.
In terms of output, the Charger Daytona R/T comes equipped with the Direct Connection Stage 1 upgrade, which gives it an output of 496 horsepower and 404 pound-feet of torque. Meanwhile, Daytona Scat Pack models get the Direct Connection Stage 2 upgrade from the factory, which results in an output of 670 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque – and a 0-60 time of 3.3 seconds, along with an estimated quarter-mile time of 11.5 seconds. Both of these models are slated to enter production this summer in two-door guise, followed by four-doors in H1 2025, and twin-turbocharged Hurricane I-6 powered examples in the second half of next year.
While cheaper than previous expected, the 2024 Dodge Charger EV lineup is still pricey compared to Ford’s Mustang offerings, regardless. The EcoBoost starts out at $31,920, the GT at $42,860, and the Dark Horse at $60,635. One can also get a GT Premium for $49,980 – quite a bit less than the base Charger Daytona R/T, and the range-topping Dark Horse is considerably cheaper than the Daytona Scat Pack, too.

Way too expensive for these. If I wanted an EV, I’d get a Tesla. Why on earth would anyone look to Dodge with their poor quality rep for these new, poor EVs?
Talk about a car that is dead on arrival.
I’m sure a few sponsored YT channels will get them, and we will get some videos of them racing other cars, but I can’t see many people actually buying these with their own money.
Also, EV tax credit on lease only? How is that even remotely acceptable?
Is it me or are these ugly as hell? I’m sorry, but there is something about the front or sides of these that just look off. Nevermind the $73k MSRP which is beyond ludicrous.
The design of this new one is inferior to the previous Challenger. Also no V8 option available. Major L for Dodge.
