The 2025 Charger Daytona Scatpack - Faster Than a Redeye but WILL IT FLOP? +550hp Hurricane 

A muscle car isn’t just speed. It’s feel, it’s rumble, it guttural. This is a Powerwheels toy from Walmart

It's amazing how hard someone will try to sell u something you don't want or never asked for.

Dodge clearly doesn't understand its customers. They will soon.

They should have changed the bee to a battery and called it a spark pack

Hey man just got my scatpack charger EV now I’m gonna do a mid speaker delete and put new rear muffler speakers in 12 inch woofers LMFAO 😂

If they don’t change their mind and bring back the V8 they will end up like Pontiac

It’s going to be fast. A microwave will cook a steak pretty quick, but I wouldn’t want to eat it. Same with driving this as an EV.

Fake shifting, fake sounds...what a joke!!!

one last thing😂😂 a damn speaker playing a motor sound has to litteraly be tha gayest thing ever

I think dodge is going to loose a lot of money and they don’t realize it

I don't GAF about an electric car. I don't care how fast it is. I got my last call Hemi and I'll die with that car.

Flop flop like a fish out of water

I actually got sick to my stomach with them trying to make people believe they're anti establishment when Ford of all companies actually are by continuing to build V8 muscle cars. If people wanted EV they probably already purchased tesla. The 6 cylinder hurricane sounds like a toy car would. Calling these cars scat pack is disgusting and not worthy of the badge!

almost 6,000 pounds thats just freaking CRAZY

Dodge Stellantis just gave the biggest middle finger to every Muscle Car Enthusiast. The Dodge brothers turning on their graves

You cant beat the feeling of having muscle, the EV doesn't scratch that itch

It might be great as far as electric goes, but it's still electric. I just hate the whole scam.

Dodge could announce a 250hp V8 and dodge fans would choose it over the 550 hurricane. Because it’s a V8

The new RT will stand for Repeatedly Towed

135mph, 6000lbs curb weight🤮🤮

I'm old school staying old school

What’s that smell? Electrical Fire 🔥 Recall after Recall

Sounds like a Ferrari with a damaged exhaust. 😂

All the new Dodge EV’s will be new Lott ROTT on every dealership lot… ill never buy any of these… sorry Dodge you lost me! Happy to see a Racer X upload though👊

"see if it feels like a real car" kind of says it all lol

Turkey Bacon / Faux Crab / EV Dodge Charger. All FAKE representations of the REAL thing.

I remember when the Gen 3 Hemi came out and everybody saying "That's not a HEMI!" but I truly don't see them ever recovering from this

@6:41 you said Tim doesn't want it to "sound like anything it isn't." Well it ISN'T a Hemi V8!!! 😡 Dodge is 4 years late to the EV party! The DJ is playing the slow song and the lights are turning on! Party's over! Everyone's leaving!!!

550hp Hurricane 4-door with AWD could be a killer daily/family car, if it isn't outrageously priced.

The numbers are better but it's not about HP or Torque. It's about the spirit/sound of the V8!

Dodge without V8s is like Mickey D’s without 🍟 🥴🫠

It weighs almost 5,900 lbs. That is absurd. A Model S Plaid weighs 4,800 lbs and runs 9.2s. Even a Model 3 Performance runs 11.4s completely stock and it weighs 4,050 lbs.

I currently own a Challenger and I’m not able to purchase any EV because I live in a condo and the HOA has not provisions for an electric car charging station. Besides that, I don’t want an EV. I’ve been paying attention to how the dealerships have been gouging customers as well and that makes me really stay far away from dealers that do that.

A lot of people fail to realize how expensive tires will be on this car. 305F/325R tires are not small by any means, then add AWD, plus calculating in the weight of this car (estimated over 5,800lbs) is going to put a dent in a lot of wallets. Being staggared, you won't be able to rotate tires and just the shear weight of the car will eat them alive. Plus, plan on paying more in taxes (depending on your state) due the weight of this vehicle. To put it in perspective, a 2023 Widebody Hellcat Charger is 4,586lbs....

Dodge didn't learn anything from Ford with there Mach E

I want that 6 pack

So....we all know Stellantis has had the largest pricing increase out of all other manufacturers. If anyone even thinks for a second that ANY of these new models/new generation is going to be anywhere near affordable, you are on drugs. These cars will be for rich people. Period.

Pricing is going to make or break these new vehicles

The ice models might not bomb, but the evs will.

Soo EV with fake shifting and sound. Hum...will this be the first trans vehicle 😂

How do you get the race fuel smell?

The key point is pricing. If Dodge and it’s dealerships continue overpricing. It will not help sells. Not everyone can afford six figure vehicles.

What don’t people understand. The regulations and the amount of money they were paying for credits is unsustainable. Blame regulators not Dodge.

Not everyone needs Hellcat power. Why not keep at least the 5.7 and sup it up some for enthusiasts and do the turbos and EV to go after track times? I'm not even in the market for one of these cars. I have a Silverado LTZ. Long story short, they are having to put a new motor in it. Has the 6.2 and they are backordered for months. I have to drive something obviously, so I got a Civic Si as a daily. It's fun and has a really great 6-speed manual.

Agree The 6 pack Is where it’s at Lighter Awd More affordable Tuning potential No ev fires or freezing in the winter

Here's my price prediction: R/T 49,999, Scat Pack 69,999, Banshee 99,999, 6Pack 39,999, all starting prices.

So glad I got my '22. I had zero interest in this thing, and the more I see, the less I like it. That interior is hideous. Bye Dodge. It was nice knowing you.

I’m a hard no on any socialist EV.

Are we going to be able to buy performance parts from Mr Coffee, speed queen and General electric? I don't know whether to cry or laugh, but I know one thing for certain, very disappointed because of no V8 option.

I don't care how fast it is. Give me the slow V8 all day

I am all for it. Got a EV already and i like it, i don't want a gas car again. How fast is the charging though.

You can make a dog sound like a goat, but it’s still a dog. Part of owning a muscle car is the ability to work on it, the ability to buy aftermarket parts to make it go faster. This vehicle will also take away skills, meaning as a young man. Buying my first hot rod means I would have to work on it and learn how to work on it. Once you know, tools, and how a system works it relates to other skills that might relate to what you learned by working on a car. What is plugging in a car teaching? Also, my fear of everything being electrical is the government will have more power to shut down your vehicle when they don’t want you driving it. You might think that sounds silly, but does it really?

"Hey pop the Hood, and you see a Hole..."

I'd buy a 2025 Charger six pack the day it comes out IF I had the money. But since it's prob going to be like $60k, there's no way I can afford one

according to Dodge's website "the Charger Daytona Scat Pack is expected to target 0-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds and target a 1/4 mile in 11.5 seconds" I am not impressed at all. I can just modify my 2015 scat pack and hit the same 1/4. This is a total failure. just another reason to not purchase this EV trash can.

Absolutely love it! I own a Mustang Mach-E & would love to add the Challenger EV to my stable too! Electric vehicles are so awesome! ⚡️ don’t let oil companies rule your lives!

I don’t see many asking about how long these batteries last and how much are they to be replaced? I will say I’m actually very impressed, it looks great and it’s fast, and could sound great, I’m actually interested but I love my scat.

I'm definitely getting a EV Scat. More hp is a plus. I have 22 Widebody and love it but the interior/exterior of this new Charger is beautiful and I'm not afraid of change.

This fake noise crap is straight out of Ron Howard’s movie “The Dilemma”

Flopady flop flop flop It's a Vegie Burger!! Fake sound is probably the funniest thing since the Honda Valkyrie was made to be a Harley. I don't want to go to Midas for new speakers!!!

I’m not sure why Dodge insists on always giving 4-door buyers the short end of the stick in terms of performance. Why does the 4-door only get the standard output hurricane? Pretty disappointing imo.

Dodge died in December of 2023. RIP.

I will be surprised if this is successful. Electric cars for enthusiasts are really a hard sell. they are missing the most emotional part of the car.

Thanks for the video! From what I understand the 550hp Six Pack is only right at 180 cubic inches...so don't be surprised if it does not respond well or can't take the pressure of upping the turbo boost unless it has some serious bottom-end beefing up. 550hp out of 180 cubes is really pushing it...But I am also interested to see how it compares to a regular Cat in the quarter mile....The car looks like a 1967 Barracuda Fastback from dead-on straight behind and a 1968 Charger from side-behind...very good looking car! And Glory Be to Dodge for bring back the Six Pack moniker!!

Dodge if you want to get people excited about this new car then have the car available, not a video with the car coming up in 29 months

Tim K: It is gonna outaccelerate a Hellcat Redeye. Me: It makes no real sound so it will never compare to a Redeye. NO THANKS! 😒

EVs should be offered as an alternative not as a replacement for ICEs. demand for them is falling off. imo dodge is taking a serious risk.

I have bought a lot od chrysler products over the years. I currently have 3 chargers (66-09), 19 redeye challenger, 06 Ram 3500, 07 pacifica, and 23 jeep grand cherokee. 4 are Hemis. 1 gen 2 and 3 gen 3s. Some are my wifes but i bought them all. I will concede that these cars will be quick. Electric motors have infinite torque at zero rpm. But that curve drops fast. So qtr mile or zero to 60 these will be quick. But when you use that it will burn the juice ( or coal - since that is how most of the juice is created). These wont have much range on a charge. Hope i am wrong. I need chrysler to stay in buisiness so i can buy parts. Lol. But the reason i wont ever be buying a new chrysler product isn't about the EVs it is about how my dealer decided to to work me over on my attemp to buy a last call car. After i gave up on him the rest of the dealers were even worse. So you didnt see a last call car on that list. That said my dailey driver is a 96 buick. My next car will probably be a vet. I never thought i would say that outloud. I will never buy an ev. This move to electric isnt about anything but changing how amaercans identify. Great channel racer x. Keep the news coming. Hope the stage kits come for the EVs. Im still waiting to buy my sage 3 kit they promised us for my redeye.

Love the design if only it has an engine 😁

The HO 6 pack sounds interesting

Major FLOPS incoming!!!

No V8, no thank you.

Someone should put that Hurricane Engine in a Dodge Dart

Thank you Dodge, but I'll stick with my gasoline muscle 💪🏾.

I feel like they should have included the door scallops in the design to give it more character

No thanks I am a Mopar guy but they can shove Ev's I don't care how fast it is hello Mustang they have a V8 they have the balls to keep it

Any news regarding the pentastar v6? Things sre gett8ng way out of hand cost wise for base models.

The only thing faster than this thing off the line will be the depreciation and the demise of the brand. Maybe Fisker can bail them out?

The only EV I would consider today is a Tesla, since Elon essentially invented the technology that all the bandwagon manufacturers copied.

Putting that bumble bee on an electric car is ludicrous. They should be forced to put an electric eel on it. Or just put a dinosaur on it. That's what Dodge will be in a few years.

The only two things I dislike about the styling are that it's a hatchback and there is no door scalloping. Everything else is just the perfect mix of modern and classic coke-bottle muscle car.

I love how that new charger looks so much more like the general Lee style charger and it's a two door just like the original

Hemi, Sorry Dodge time to move on to the Mustang that has V8 internal combustion engine!!!!

The faster than a redeye claim needs to have a giant asterisks next to it until they prove it. My take is that they mean on an unprepped surface because a stock redeye with traction is an animal and runs 10s in the 1/4 (10.937@130.2 for a bone stock car on stock tire)

As a dodge guy . I hope this puts them out of business …fake sounds , fake shifting , fake “ caring for the customers “

You couldn’t pay me to sell my soul to EVs for the prospect of beating a few people on the road before the battery dies. IF they’re under $75K, I’d take a gander at a 4-Door Six Pack HO, as a grand tourer, and providing it’s somewhat tunable. Give the people what they want, Stellantis!

This is so sad to see where Dodge is going..

They should call it the dodge woke charger. Goodby Dodge, and hello mustang.

I'll believe that it's faster than a Hellcat when I see it in action. The damn thing weighs close to 6000 lbs and has a top speed of 134 mph. Power to weight ratio is a thing. a 3.3 second 0-60 is impressive but that seems like it's all it has going for it. At this point, it seems like the 6-pack is going to put out better performance than the EV.

A lot to unpack here first the ev rt 0-60 4.7 will be getting dragged by the current 392’s, also the ev scat 1/4 mile 11.5 just a little better than a 1320. Nobody’s talking about there nearly 6k lbs crub weight. Power to weight lives yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Dodge can try to act like they’re muscle car rebels but at the end of the day they’ve still killed off some of the best selling and coolest cars on the road and contributed to cars becoming soulless appliances

I don’t think it will flop. The 6 pack is equivalent to the GTR specs. The ScatPack already surpasses the Redeye. The banshee will probably will go vs the Plaid. Well done Dodge. Well Dodge. Mark my words, the dodge movement will destroy all cars in terms of who is faster.

The main takeaway from this for me is that I won’t be affording any of these. I will just keep my 2013 challenger until the government makes gasoline so expensive I can’t drive. I should be about done driving by then. And an EV with a speaker playing a sound track of a gasoline engine…. This is laughably ridiculous

I’m not a Dodge guy but for those who are…please hold on to those hemis.

I’m glad and thankful you’re still posting while dealing with a lot in your personal life, we genuinely appreciate you X 🙏✊

Well a 550 HP twin turbo inline 6 is a worthy consolation for us ICE fans. I guess. Maybe Dodge could offer the Tremec 6 speed to sweeten the deal.

At some point people gotta stop looking at EVs as a bad thing… just because it’s electric dosent mean its some “left wing” thing, its just powered by batteries and motors instead of gas/diesel and ICEs. With that being said, the chassis/body is an absolutely winner, from practically to looks. 2 and 4 door options. The Hurricane engine will be better than most people think at this moment. And with all that, let’s be real, V8s aren’t dead. The current regulations simply do not allow the current Hemis to be sold in passenger cars. Consumers would be paying a good 20k premium between gas guzzler tax and emissions related penalties. The manufacturers can’t be expected to eat these fines when its the customers that want the product

6pack HO. For me. The video made me a believer unless the dealership mark them up. Scat pack isn’t SRT to my knowledge. Scat packs were RT’s and SRTs were its own trims

I want the Sixpack version. That engine sounds surprisingly good in the Ram trucks. It should be fun in the cars. The base model NEEDS to start in the 40K range to get attention. If they price it too high it'll be DOA.

They don't understand what we want . We really don't care about gas mileage. All we care about is Horse power , Acceleration , Torque , and most of all, it has to be a V8 under the hood.
