New Dodge Charger Daytona sedan revealed as electric four-door muscle car

Dodge has unveiled a huge, rapid and seriously potent new model: the Dodge Charger Daytona sedan. In other words, it is a four-door muscle car. Yee, and indeed, haw.

Crucially, it is an electric four-door muscle car, as the new Charger is an EV. Given that this is a Dodge EV wearing such a huge, fast and powerful badge, buyers can expect plenty of yee and haw.

Dodge Charger Daytona sedan powertrain and performance

As expected, the Charger sedan adopts the coupe’s mechanical package in its entirety. That means a substantial 100.5kWh battery, two electric motors and Stellantis’s SLTA Large 400V architecture, with the complete factory output of 670bhp and 627lb ft (850Nm).

The result is a 0–60mph (0–97km/h) time of 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 134mph (216km/h). It completes the quarter-mile in 11.5 seconds, produces sound through its ‘fratzonic chambered exhaust’, offers multiple drive modes, rides on enormous 20-inch (approximately 51cm) wheels and gets a mechanical limited-slip differential.

A Track Pack is also available. Its additions include red Brembo six- and four-piston brakes, lightweight aluminium wheels, a gloss-black rear spoiler, two-valve adaptive dampers and a data logger.

Four doors, same Charger Daytona look

There is plenty of muscle, then, but what of the extra doors? The new saloon uses the same roofline, boot and front and rear styling as the two-door model. At first glance, it would be difficult to spot that it has four doors rather than two: both cars essentially resemble especially long coupes.

Dodge says the added doors serve practicality while also drawing greater attention to the Charger’s vast sides. The company claims this gives the car the widest body of any vehicle in the industry. You could say the extra entry points have been incorporated rather neatly.

Dodge chief Matt McAlear said: “It’s a real testament to the Dodge design and engineering teams that apart from two additional doors, the Dodge Charger Daytona sedan embodies the same look and feel as the coupe.”

Cabin options and future SIXPACK Chargers

Buyers will be able to choose optional stripes, receive a day of tuition at Radford Racing School and enjoy the Charger’s revamped cabin. It includes a 16-inch instrument display, a 12.3-inch central screen, design references to the ’68 Charger and a broad choice of ambient-lighting shades: 64, to be exact.

“The 2026 Charger lineup is all about giving our customers the power to choose the muscle car that best fits their lifestyle, with even more choices to come later this year with gas-powered SIXPACK Charger models,” McAlear added. Capital letters are necessary here, because those Chargers will use a twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre straight-six producing up to 550bhp. Yee - and, all right then, haw.
