Dodge is Racing Ahead With its Four-Door 2026 Charger Daytona EV Muscle Car

Dodge is taking orders for its next big debut in its parade of muscle cars with the unveiling of the 2026 four-door Dodge Charger Daytona EV. The 670-horsepower Charger Daytona will be the only available muscle car with four doors. The new sedan looks a lot like the coupe version. The sedan keeps the same roofline, liftgate, and front and rear appearance, it might take you a minute to realize that it has four doors. 

In 2026, both the four-door and two-door Charger Daytona Scat Pack models will arrive with 670 horsepower. It appears that Dodge is dropping the lower horsepower version. The 670-horsepower Charger Daytona Scat Pack is the world’s quickest and most powerful muscle car. The 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack reaches 0-60 mph in just 3.3 seconds.

“The beauty is in the simplicity,” said Matt McAlear, Dodge CEO. “It’s a real testament to the Dodge design and engineering teams that apart from two additional doors, the Dodge Charger Daytona sedan embodies the same look and feel as the coupe, with the same widebody exterior, driver-centric interior, muscle car performance and standard all-wheel-drive capability, combined with four-door practicality. The 2026 Charger lineup is all about giving our customers the power to choose the muscle car that best fits their lifestyle, with even more choices to come later this year with gas-powered SIXPACK Charger models.”

2026 Charger Daytonas Offer Peak Performance

Dodge is making the Track Package now optional on two-door and four-door Scat Packs, giving customers the choice of an entry-level Scat Pack or one loaded with all the muscle car hardware right off the dealer’s lot. 

Other standard content for Charger Daytona Scat Pack four-door and two-door models include:
