The new electric daytona can be less powerful and heavier, but all -wheel drive and instant torque make a big difference
–>
- A new test confirms that all -wheel drive can be more important than a power.
- The race presented the old Challenger Hellcat and the new Charger Daytona EV.
- Dodge ultimately offers more speed at less dollars for the moment.
In the event that it was not easy after several years of proof of various car manufacturers, electric cars are seriously rapid. Electric vehicles with all -wheel drive with power swabs are naturally even faster. What could surprise some pure and hard oil trees is that the new Dodge Daytona Charger is faster than an Hellcat Challenger Redeye.
The new Charger Daytona does not obtain elegant criticism. Whether it is because of its electric motors, its lack of V8 option, the inability to make a professional exhaustion, prices or something else, its welcome was at best lukewarm – and it is likely that certain dealers offer massive discounts and that the dodges itself rented at low rate.

What is not to be discussed is how speed is. According to Car and driverThe Scat Daytona pack with its 670 horsepower (499 kW) and its full -tulled traction system managed to flex 0 to 60 mph (0 to 96 km / h) in just 3.3 seconds. When the magazine tested the 797 HP (594 kW) Challenger Hellcat Redeye, which was the rear traction, its best time was 3.8 seconds.
On the other hand, the Charger Daytona was not as agile as a BMW i4 M50 just as fast. While the German electric sedan had a chassis and a well-adjusted suspension, the charger plowed in the corners with an “excessive underside”.
He managed to go beyond the BMW and the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N. On the skate, it corresponded to the Hyundai and was 0.01 on the brand defined by the BMW. This mixture of skills may not be exactly what everyone wants, but it makes the Daytona charge attractive to those whose main priority is direct acceleration.
In the end, the purchase of a new Dodge Charger Daytona is a quick way to smoke all the challenger (and probably the charger) Hellcat you meet, alongside much more expensive machines. Having four large patches of tire, all chastern and tearing, as well as the couple instantly available, is simply too much for the old Kitty Hell Kitty to manage.
