Dodge has released photos of its Dodge Charger Daytona SRT \u201cBanshee\u201d Concept, a fully electric version of the iconic American muscle car.<\/p>\n

Dodge has been teasing the potential for a fully electric muscle car for some time. We first heard about it last year, when Dodge claimed it would launch the \u201cworld\u2019s first battery electric muscle car\u201d in 2024<\/a>. And later that year, Dodge also set a 2024 end date for gas-powered Chargers and Challengers<\/a> (a story which some sites have reported again this week<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Now we\u2019re seeing the next car it might induct into the \u201cBrotherhood of Muscle\u201d: an electric Charger. And boy howdy, it sure does look hot.<\/p>\n

The \u201cBanshee\u201d electric Dodge Charger concept is a fully electric, American muscle car \u2013 no hybrid, no engine, just battery.<\/p>\n

Dodge\u2019s press release is a little light on the details, without much info about specs. The only real performance spec we have is that the concept will be powered by Dodge\u2019s 800V electric all-wheel drive propulsion system, named Banshee. Dodge wants this Banshee branding to evoke the same level of performance as its other high-horsepower brands, like Hemi, Hellcat and Redeye.<\/p>\n

The electric Charger concept comes with three headline design features:<\/p>\n
