With both a plug-in hybrid on the lot and an all-electric Charger coming screaming down the pipe, there’s never been a better time to consider what an electric Dodge can be. Take a look at the future of performance.
Electric Dodge Muscle: A Guide to Dodge’s EV and PHEV Lineup
Meet the Hornet R/T: Buzzing with Plug-In Power
A High-Performance Powertrain
The Hornet R/T is a plug-in hybrid with guts. In fact, it’s the most powerful crossover in its segment, offering a 0-60 time of just 5.6 seconds. The segment-exclusive PowerShot button adds up to 30 additional horsepower in 15-second bursts. A maximum speed of 128 mph and a net output of up to 288 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque make it simply a blast to drive.
Standard AWD, torque vectoring, and near-perfect balance make the Hornet R/T a ton of fun to throw into the corners. Available Brembo brakes make stopping easy, and a KONI Frequency Selective Damping System helps absorb shocks and bumps to smooth out the ride.
Power Marries Practicality
The Hornet R/T’s crossover design also makes it perfect for everyday driving. A roomy interior and spacious cargo compartment make for a vehicle that’s just as at-home on a box store shopping trip as it is revving on the track. Easing off the gasoline is easy, too, with an all-electric range of up to 32 miles making it a snap to say “no thanks” to gasoline for most daily driving needs.
The 2025 Charger Daytona: The World’s Only Electric Muscle Car
Built to Run
With a 100.5 kWh battery driving twin 335-horsepower electric motors, the Charger Daytona is a muscle car that skips emissions for good. The estimated 627 lb-ft of torque offers near-instant response to the pedals, and an all-wheel-drive power configuration makes for sharp and precise cornering. This all-electric muscle car is expected to go from 0-60 in just 3.3 seconds.
The battery pack is tuned for performance. It combines the instant response of nickel cobalt aluminum chemistry with the reliability of lithium-ion configurations to support a howling-fast quarter-mile time of just 11.5 seconds.
Smart Technology
The Charger Daytona offers plenty of technology to perfectly tune the ride. Paddle shifters adjust the amount of regenerative braking, and the system offers drive modes like Track Mode, Drag Mode, and Sport Mode to tune perfectly the Charger’s performance. The available Drive Experience Recorder uses a forward-facing 1080p, 60fps camera to capture and integrate audio, video, and vehicle data.
A standard Digital Cluster Display and available Head-Up Display make drive information easy to absorb even at howling-fast track speeds, and the standard 12.3-inch central display touchscreen makes it easy to control your favorite music at the same time. The Uconnect 5 system offers standard wireless connectivity with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay for infinite entertainment at your command.
