All-electric, all-wheel-drive Dodge Charger Daytona models are driven by a 400V propulsion system that delivers supercharged V-8 power with zero tailpipe emissions and instant torque response. The ghosted illustration of the Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack highlights the wheels, half-shafts, front and rear electric drive modules and the high voltage battery pack.

Up to 115,000 tonnes of synthetic graphite material from 2026-2031 will be supplied to Stellantis’ cell manufacturing partners in North America under an agreement with Brisbane-headquartered battery materials and technology company Novonix.

The material will come from Novonix’s Riverside facility in Chattanooga, Tennesee, and a planned expansion site.

Stellantis plans to invest more than 50 billion euros over the decade in electrification to deliver on its targets of reaching 100% passenger car BEVs.

It’s securing about 400GWh of battery capacity, including support from battery manufacturing plants in North America and Europe.
