In terms of safety, the model is equipped with a range of driver assistance systems, including automatic emergency braking, active lane management, active blind spot and traffic sign information technology.

2024 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T
Power is provided by a dual-motor all-wheel drive system that produces 456 hp (340 kW / 462 PS) and 404 lb-ft (547 Nm) of torque. However, the PowerShot function can increase output to 496 hp (370 kW / 503 PS) for 15 seconds at a time.
This setup enables the car to accelerate from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 4.7 seconds and reach a top speed of 137 mph (220 km/h). The 100.5 kWh battery pack also promises a range of 317 miles (510 km).
The Scat Pack is priced at $73,190 and offers 670 horsepower.
Buyers looking for speed can upgrade to the $73,190 Charger Daytona Scat Pack, which has 630 hp (470 kW / 637 PS) and 627 lb-ft (849 Nm) of torque. Like the R/T, it also features a PowerShot feature that increases output to 670 hp (500 kW / 679 PS).
This allows the Dodge to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 96 km/h) in 3.3 seconds and run the quarter mile in about 11.5 seconds. However, top speed drops to 134 mph (216 km/h) and range plummets to 260 miles (418 km/h).
In addition to the upgraded powertrain, the Scat Pack also features additional driving modes, a Line Lock feature, and Launch Control. Buyers will also find a standard Track Pack that includes 20-inch aluminum wheels, a gloss black rear spoiler, a dual-valve adaptive damping suspension, and Brembo brakes with red calipers.
Buyers will also find an upgraded interior with leather and suede performance seats, heated rear seats, a head-up display and a 16-inch digital instrument cluster. There’s also the Drive eXperience Recorder, which can record video and provide “simultaneous recording of audio, video and vehicle data.”

Both models can be equipped with a variety of options, including the Plus Group for $4,995. The options vary, but include ventilated front seats, premium instrument panel and door trim, and a power hatch. The package also includes “stance adjustment” lighting, a front trunk, a 360-degree surround view camera, and a wireless smartphone charger. There are also premium LED headlights, Dodge logo puddle lights, and various other features.
The R/T and Scat Pack also have an optional $2,495 Sun & Sound package, which adds, of course, a glass roof and an 18-speaker Alpine premium audio system.
The R/T is available with a unique Blacktop package for $1,095 that includes dark badges and 20-inch dark wheels.
The Scat Pack can be equipped with two exclusive packages, including the 3-season tire package. This package costs $695 and the car is equipped with Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 rubber instead of the standard all-season tires.
Scat Pack customers can also opt for the Carbon & Suede package for $2,995. This package adds carbon fiber mirror caps, dark badges, and dark 20-inch wheels. Inside, there are leather and suede seats, carbon fiber interior trim, and plenty of suede trim.
