Report: Dodge Axes Charger Daytona SRT Banshee Flagship EV

Stellantis says it is reassessing product strategy to match consumer demand.

Overview

  • MoparInsiders reports the Charger Daytona SRT Banshee has been canceled, with suppliers said to have been notified, and Stellantis did not confirm the move.
  • Stellantis provided the same reassessment statement to The Drive and did not directly deny the report when asked for confirmation.
  • Dodge previously cut the Daytona R/T, leaving the 670-hp Scat Pack as the sole electric Charger trim.
  • Gas-powered Charger Sixpack models using a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six are slated to reach dealers before year-end.
  • Stellantis has revived its SRT performance division, with Ram CEO Tim Kuniskis overseeing the unit as plans for future SRT models are reviewed.
