The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona has made its official debut at Motor Trend’s Roadkill Nights event, and automotive enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement. The car has been showcased in various photos and videos, and according to Mopar Insiders, the initial impressions are overwhelmingly positive. The exterior of the Charger Daytona is described as visually captivating, while the interior is said to be a significant improvement over previous models.
However, Mopar Insiders also highlights a few deviations from the concept version of the car. For instance, the production model will feature LED headlights instead of the carbon LED Matrix headlights showcased in the concept. Additionally, the carbon fiber hem will be replaced with a gloss black finish for cost reasons. The traditional door handles will be replaced with electronic units borrowed from the upcoming battery-electric Jeep Wagoneer S. It’s worth noting that these changes are specific to the 400-volt architecture versions of the Charger Daytona, and the 800-volt SRT Banshee trim might offer some of the concept’s luxurious features.
One interesting aspect pointed out by Mopar Insiders is the designation of the red car as a Scat Pack First Edition. This suggests that there may still be surprises in terms of pricing and package options, despite previous discussions about rumored and official pricing. Additionally, the article provides a clear picture of the frunk (front trunk) that comes with the $4,995 Plus Group. Rather than being a traditional cargo storage area, the frunk is described as a deep, carpeted storage bin. Considering the spaciousness of the hatch cargo area, especially with the option of lie-flat seats, it is anticipated that the frunk may not see much use for storing cargo. However, it does present a convenient space for storing the charging cable and other small items that every driver should have on hand for emergencies.

Overall, the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona is generating plenty of excitement with its impressive design and upgraded interior. Although there are some deviations from the initial concept, the car still promises to deliver a thrilling driving experience. With the Scat Pack First Edition and the unique frunk storage option, Dodge is offering customers additional choices and practicality. Car enthusiasts and potential buyers eagerly await further updates on pricing and availability as they eagerly anticipate hitting the road in the new Charger Daytona.
