- The 2027 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack is here
- Billed as the “world’s most powerful muscle car,” the 2027 Daytona EV comes with a Tesla-style charging port from the factory.
- An AC charging adapter will come standard, but customers will have to pay extra for a fast charging adapter.
The 2027 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack is here, and it marks a big change for parent company Stellantis. The 2027 Daytona EV, which can be ordered now, is Stellantis’ first electric car with a factory-installed Tesla-style NACS charging port, enabling it to use over 25,000 Tesla Superchargers in North America without a charging adapter.
What’s more, the starting price of the battery-powered muscle car has gone down a little compared to the outgoing model, with the 2027 Charger Daytona Scat Pack starting from $74,490 (including destination charges), down $1,490 from last year’s $75,980. Meanwhile, the four-door model costs an additional $500, just like before.

Stellantis said that the slightly updated electric Charger will come standard with a J1772 to NACS AC adapter to make life a little easier for new owners, but customers will have to pay extra for a CCS1 to NACS adapter if they want to use CCS1-equipped chargers like those offered by Electrify America and EVgo.
Just like on the previous models, the 2027 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack features a dual-motor powertrain that makes 630 horsepower, with an additional 40 hp available for 10 seconds when the PowerShot feature is activated. The Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust, which makes the EV sound like it has a V-8 engine under the hood, is part of the standard kit. The same goes for the multiple drive modes, including Drift Mode and Donut Mode.
Powered by a 94-kilowatt-hour battery pack rated at roughly 400 volts, the 2027 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack has an estimated driving range of 267 miles on a full charge, the same as the outgoing model. The automaker didn’t say how fast the NACS-equipped EV would charge, but we know from previous models that it takes roughly 24 minutes to go from 20% to 80% state of charge. It should be the same for the 2027 model, too, when plugged into a Tesla Supercharger, the vast majority of which are rated at 400V.
Ever since its introduction as a 2024 model, the electric Dodge Charger has been a bit of a mess. Build quality issues and software gremlins, as well as the fact that it doesn’t have a V-8 under the hood, have led to poor sales numbers and frustrated owners. Stellantis introduced a six-cylinder gas engine option this year to try and convince more people to buy the revamped Charger, but we don’t know how this move has translated into sales figures yet.
What we do know is that InsideEVs contributing writer Andrew Lambrecht leased a Dodge Charger Daytona EV with his own money earlier this year. He got a fantastic deal, but he still hasn’t driven his car after nearly three months of signing the lease.
