The Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept, shown in a new Stryker Red exterior color, will once again use a respected gathering of automotive builders and tuners to offer a peek at the future of the Dodge brand. Dodge This past August, Dodge gave the world its first taste of the brand’s future as a purveyor of e-Muscle cars with the debut of the Charger Daytona SRT concept. The electric muscle car garnered a lot of attention for being the first electric vehicle with an exhaust system, or at least a sound generator labeled as an exhaust.

The production version of the Charger Daytona doesn’t arrive until 2024 which means Dodge still has time to fine tune exactly what it will sound like. This week at the annual Specialty Equipment Marketing Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas Dodge will show an updated version of the concept and conduct consumer clinics on the Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust.

The Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept, shown in a new Stryker Red exterior color, will once again use a respected gathering of automotive builders and tuners to offer a peek at the future of the Dodge brand. Dodge Visually, the biggest change to the concept is a shift from a dark gray to a much bolder Stryker Red. This is a tri-coat red finish that was last seen on the Dodge Viper in the mid-2010s.

The form of the vehicle shown in Las Vegas is intended to be representative of the top end Banshee powertrain with the stage 2 Direct Connection power upgrades. As such, the car has corresponding fender badges and 18-inch carbon fiber wheels from Direct Connection shod with 305-mm wide drag radials.

However, we now have some information on the output of the base and mid-level powertrains which use a 400V architecture.

Dodge Recently Dodge brand chief Tim Kuniskis acknowledged that work on the Fratzonic exhaust wasn’t yet complete and videos recorded at the reveal didn’t really represent the full impact of the system.

As part of the ongoing development process, SEMA show attendees will have the opportunity to participate in clinics at the Dodge stand to provide feedback on the tuning of the system. Since sound is considered to be an important part of the appeal of muscle cars, Dodge really wants to get this component right.
