Along with official info from Dodge about what buyers could stay up for on the battery-electric 2024 Charger Daytona, there’s been quite a little bit of leaked info we filed under Rumormill. That features specs for First Edition trims from early dealer guides that Mopar Insider saw, a note a few 90-day delay from a purported April opening date for order books, in addition to potential pricing gleaned from a photograph of a Stellantis computer. Dodge has come forth with real pricing, and it seems the goalposts have moved little. Let’s get the massive bit out of the way in which first, the MSRPs. The 2024 Charger Daytona R/T will start at $59,995 before a $1,995 destination charge, which comes out to $61,990 before options. That is $8,575 below the rumored price we just posted on two days ago. But more on that discrepancy in a moment.
Dodge says the 2024 Charger Daytona Scat Pack will start at $75,185 after destination, $8,980 below rumored amount from a couple of days ago.
Digging into spec, the official standard equipment also deviates from what early dealer guides reportedly showed. In accordance with those guides and the MSRP screenshot, at launch, we expected an R/T trim loaded with the $4,995 Plus Group, $1,095 Blacktop Package and $2,495 Sun & Sound Group. The sum of those option prices is $8,585 — right across the projected differences between official pricing and the Stellantis computer image MSRPs.
Notably, Dodge has never made any mention that we are able to find of the phrase “First Edition” in connection to the brand new muscle automotive; the closest the automaker gets to it’s referring to “Inaugural 12 months” when speaking of what is included within the Scat Pack MSRP for 2024. That computer screenshot calls the three-option R/T bundle the Customer Preferred Package. What we’re saying is, we do not know if Dodge had every thing ready for a giant first-year splash at an elevated price but decided to drag back, or if we were projecting our idea of the familiar First Edition playbook onto the Charger launch. Either way, the ingredients for a First Edition are in there.
While we’re here, let’s make clear the Plus Group. It offers different options depending on trim, for a similar price. For each trims, the Plus Group adds:
- 360-degree surround view camera
- Attitude Adjustment lighting
- Exterior mirrors with Dodge logo puddle lamp
- Frunk
- Premium IP and door trim panels
- Premium LED headlamps
- Power hatch
- Wireless charging pad
That is right, no front storage area for you until you pay the $4,995 tribute.
On the R/T, this group also provides:
- 16-inch color driver display
- 20-by-9-inch aluminum wheels
- Deluxe security alarm
- Head-up display
- Leatherette low back bucket seats with ventilation
The 16-inch driver display, alarm, and HUD are standard equipment on the Scat Pack. The one other change on the upper trim is leather high-back bucket seats with ventilation as a substitute of the R/T’s leatherette low-back seats. Dodge said the Plus Group also comes with “Way more additional content,” without specifying.
Finally, if you happen to’ve liked the sound of the Demonic Red seats, they’re a further $495 after paying for the Plus Group.
Dodge lists the exclusive options for the Scat Pack might be the $2,995 Carbon & Suede Package, and the $695 3-Season Tires with Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 rubber. We, and quite a couple of other outlets, thought the Goodyear tires got here with the Track Pack, but they don’t — all-season tires are the usual. The great rubber goes to cost more, and are available 2025, the Track Package will as well.
To the housekeeping: Each muscle cars qualify for the $7,500 federal tax credit when leased. Each include either a Level 2 home charging station or a $600 charging credit through Stellantis’ Free2move Charge network. Production of the two-door battery-electric models starts this summer, meaning in the following 45 days or so; the four-door versions head down lines sometime in the primary six months of 2025. The gas-powered versions running on the Hurricane inline-six don’t enter production until the second half of 2025.
In Q3, shoppers can try Dodge’s Horsepower Locator to search out dealer allocations. The actual McCoys will start being unloaded on dealer lots in Q4 of this 12 months.
