2026 Dodge Charger Daytona EV: Natick Buyers Guide
Quick Answer: The 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona EV at a Glance
The all-electric Charger comes in two trims for 2026: Scat Pack (from $59,995 MSRP, 2-door) and Scat Pack Plus (from $64,990), both before destination. Both make an identical 630 horsepower (670 with a 10-second Power Shot burst) from dual motors and standard all-wheel drive — Plus adds comfort and audio gear, not power. EPA range runs up to 267 miles on the standard wheel setup, and Dodge dropped the Scat Pack's price by $5,000 for 2026 after quietly retiring the lower-power R/T EV trim. It's built and sold at Brigham-Gill Village CDJR, 817 Worcester Street in Natick, a straight shot down Route 9.
An electric muscle car built for actual daily use
Dodge had a real needle to thread here: keep the Charger's street presence while making a car that a MetroWest family could genuinely live with as a daily driver. The Daytona EV rides on the same body as the gas Charger — R-Wing front fascia, full-width LED light bar, 2-door coupe or 4-door sedan — but under the sheetmetal it's a 100.5-kWh (roughly 93.9 kWh usable) battery feeding dual motors, standard all-wheel drive, and no transmission to speak of. Cargo space is genuinely useful for a performance car: 22.8 cubic feet behind the rear seats, 37.4 with them folded, plus a small front trunk where a gas Charger has an engine. For a household cross-shopping this against a three-row SUV, the trunk numbers alone are a pleasant surprise.
The number that gets people's attention is 630 horsepower — standard, on both trims, no upcharge required. Ask for Power Shot mode and it bumps to 670 hp for a 10-second burst, quick enough for a U.S. News-tested 3.3-second run to 60 mph. None of that requires a manual, a clutch, or premium fuel; it requires a full battery and a driveway outlet.

What actually changed for 2026
Dodge simplified the lineup rather than complicating it. The lower-power R/T EV trim that launched the nameplate is gone for 2026 — Scat Pack is now where the Daytona EV starts, and Dodge cut that starting price by $5,000 in the process ($64,995 to $59,995 on the 2-door). Every 2026 Daytona EV also carries the full 630/670-hp powertrain that used to be a Scat Pack-only exclusive, so there's no longer a "base" electric Charger with meaningfully less muscle. Note that fueleconomy.gov's own database still lists an R/T AWD configuration for MY2026 — that's a lagging federal filing, not evidence the trim is still for sale; Brigham-Gill Village CDJR's current inventory reflects the real, two-trim 2026 ladder.
Range depends on the wheels, not the trim
EPA testing shows three separate range numbers for what is nominally one car, and the difference comes down entirely to what's wrapped around the wheels. The standard 20-inch setup is rated 267 miles; an alternate all-season 20-inch fitment drops that to 241; and the Track Pack's staggered summer performance tires (305/35 front, 325/35 rear) bring it down to 223 miles in exchange for a genuinely stiffer, track-capable suspension. DC fast charging tops out around 183 kW, enough to go from 20% to 80% in roughly 32.5 minutes on a fast enough charger, and Level 2 home charging runs up to 11 kW overnight — a full charge on an ordinary home circuit while everyone's asleep.
What Brigham-Gill Village CDJR customers say about buying here
Brigham-Gill Village CDJR carries a 4.6-star Google rating across more than 1,200 reviews, and the dealership already has years of history with Charger owners specifically — the Daytona EV is brand new, but the sales floor and service bays aren't. One longtime customer who's owned three Chargers from the dealership put it this way: "I have purchased my last three vehicles from Brigham & Gill... 2016 Dodge Charger... Love the products, Ali in sales is a knowledge machine when it comes to showing me how everything works. Sarah in finance gets the deals done quickly." — Jeff P. That kind of repeat-Charger-buyer relationship is exactly what a new, unproven EV trim benefits from most.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Dodge Charger Daytona EV actually fast?
Yes — U.S. News tested a Power Shot-equipped Scat Pack at 3.3 seconds to 60 mph and a mid-11-second quarter mile, with 670 hp available for 10-second bursts (630 hp standard the rest of the time). That puts it ahead of plenty of gas-powered performance sedans, without a drop of fuel burned to get there.
What's the real-world range of the Charger Daytona EV?
EPA-rated 267 miles on the standard 20-inch wheel and tire package, 241 miles on an alternate all-season 20-inch fitment, or 223 miles with the Track Pack's staggered summer performance tires. Cold MetroWest winters will trim actual range below the EPA number, as with any EV — plan charging stops accordingly on longer trips.
Is the Charger Daytona EV the same as the gas Charger?
They share identical exterior sheetmetal — the R-Wing fascia, the full-width taillight, 2-door and 4-door body styles — but nothing under the skin. The gas Charger runs Dodge's 3.0L Twin-Turbo Hurricane SIXPACK engine with R/T and Scat Pack trims of its own; the Daytona EV is dual-motor electric only. Look for the "DAYTONA" badge and the electrified Dodge lightning mark to tell them apart at a glance.
Is the Scat Pack Plus actually faster than the regular Scat Pack?
No — both trims make the identical 630 hp standard / 670 hp Power Shot. Scat Pack Plus is a comfort and technology upgrade (premium audio, ambient lighting, wireless charging, available head-up display), not a performance one. Choose based on which features you want, not which one is quicker.

Inventory on a new, fast-moving nameplate moves quickly — check the live new-vehicle inventory or call (508) 960-7036 before making the drive to 817 Worcester Street.
The short version
The 2026 Charger Daytona EV is Dodge's answer to "can an electric car still feel like a Charger," and on paper it mostly succeeds — full power on both trims, real cargo space, and home-charging convenience layered on top of the muscle-car theater. The trim guides above break down exactly what separates Scat Pack from Scat Pack Plus; the fastest way to feel the difference is still a test drive at brighamgillmotorcars.com.

Range and efficiency figures are EPA estimates; real-world range varies with weather, driving style and wheel/tire configuration. Acceleration figures reflect third-party test results (U.S. News), not a manufacturer guarantee, and require Power Shot mode.
