Can the 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona EV Do Woodward Dream Cruise?
Key Points in This Article:
- The electric Charger Daytona hasn’t gone over well with Dodge fans, with sluggish sales since its late-2024 launch.
- But even at the nostalgia-laden Woodward Dream Cruise, the Charger Daytona still turned heads.
- A few key changes to the car’s Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust system would make this EV even more compelling.
The Woodward Dream Cruise is perhaps the quintessential celebration of American car culture. Every third weekend in August for the past 30 years, nearly 1.5 million people and some 40,000 classic, muscle, hot rod, exotic and specialty cars gather on a 16-mile stretch of suburban Detroit’s Woodward Avenue and hold the world’s largest one-day automotive-themed gathering. Automakers sponsor massive displays and people dust off their cars and hit the boulevard to pay tribute to a nostalgic time in the 1950s and ‘60s when cruising Woodward Ave. was what you did on a Saturday night, enjoying the drive-in restaurants, movie theatres, and just to see and be seen in a sweet ride.

It’s a celebration of horsepower, art, creativity and, more than anything, the American propensity for loud, gas-powered speed — which makes what I drove this year particularly curious: a 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona EV four-door. I’ve attended every Woodward Dream Cruise since the first one in 1994 (it was canceled only once, in 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic), and I’ve done it in a hot Mopar every single time. But I’d never done it in an electric car, and I was curious to see what the car enthusiast public’s reaction would be to the first-ever electric muscle car.

The Ride in Question: Electric Muscle
When Dodge discontinued the old Hemi-powered Challenger and Charger back in 2023, the brand’s star performance twins had become synonymous with relatively inexpensive, accessible, everyman speed … which is why their replacement made a lot of folks scratch their heads. The 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona looked incredible — it was styled like a fully modernized 1968 throwback — but swapping out the iconic Hemi V-8 engine for all-electric power was a move everyone felt was likely to be brand suicide. Sad to say, that prognostication has thus far proven correct: Through the first six months of 2025, Dodge has sold barely 4,300 Charger EVs, a fraction of what the prior gas-powered models sold. That works out to about two sales per Dodge dealer across the country, all year. Yikes.
Help is on the way in the form of a gas-powered Charger with the new Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six-cylinder engine, which is dubbed Sixpack here. But that’s still not the Hemi everyone knew and loved, and it’s unlikely to command the same fanatical following despite the Hurricane’s superiority in every quantifiable measure (except exhaust noise).

In the electric Charger, Dodge tried to mitigate the “emotional allergies” caused by swapping out the Hemi by including something it calls Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust — essentially, an external speaker mounted under the car that creates a very loud fake “exhaust noise” tied to the car’s acceleration. You can also “rev” it while parked, and it’s as loud as the old supercharged Dodge Challenger Hellcat’s exhaust was, matching it for audacity if not authenticity.
So, with the third week of August upon us, Dodge loaned me a new 2026 Charger Daytona Scat Pack four-door. We’d seen the two-door coupe before, but the four-door is brand-new for ‘26, and is arriving in dealerships. The “Daytona” trim denotes it being electric, and the Scat Pack name means it’s the high-performance version (the R/T has been discontinued for the electric Charger but will be returning as the lower trim for the gas-powered models early in 2026). Using a dual-motor setup for all-wheel drive, the Charger Daytona Scat Pack comes with 670 horsepower and the ability to get from 0-60 mph in 3.3 seconds, according to Dodge. Its 241 miles of estimated range, however, isn’t all that much to talk about.
Despite its staggering 5,828-pound base curb weight, the Charger Daytona four-door is brutally quick, handles well and has a sizable interior that’s comfortable for four people. It’s a big car — bigger than the old Charger four-door, and with fastback-hatchback styling that gives it extra utility. It is also expensive: $80,465 as tested (including destination fee). That puts it out of reach of a lot of former Charger and Challenger buyers, but it isn’t really all that much more than the old Hellcat Widebody models used to cost. Simply put, the ‘26 Charger Daytona Scat Pack is a beast, a hefty presence in traffic that turns heads far, far more frequently than I expected it to.

‘Hey, What Is That?!’
Sitting at the stoplight in the Charger Daytona, I heard the honking first. Looking out my driver’s side window, the shirtless middle-aged guy next to me in the old, beat-up beige Chevrolet Suburban towing a bunch of lawn equipment was frantically motioning for me to put my window down. I did, and he immediately yelled across: “What is that?” That a man who I’d have guessed would be very familiar with the traditional Dodge lineup actually had no idea what the new Charger looked like made me wince inwardly. That cannot be a good sign, I thought.
Sure enough, the novelty of the new Charger Daytona became evident when I took it out to Woodward Avenue on Thursday night prior to the Saturday night main event. The Dream Cruise is now a weeklong event with people cruising every night, with less traffic and smaller crowds allowing for actual cruising versus sitting in gridlock traffic on Saturday. And everywhere I took the Charger, all up and down the 16-mile stretch of onlooker-lined boulevard, it drew immediate pointing, excited exclamations and shock (no pun intended).
This kind of reaction is not entirely surprising, either, because for the entirety of the Woodward Dream Cruise weekend, I did not see another new Charger Daytona out cruising. The fact that the Charger Daytona has been out for nearly a year now (it was introduced in late 2024 as a ‘24 model) and that it had zero public presence at America’s greatest celebration of muscle cars and power tells you just how badly Dodge product planning under European Stellantis management got it wrong.
But there is hope for the Charger, and it comes in the form of the actual, genuine interest everyone showed in my bright blue bomber. The number of exclamations of “Oh! That’s the new Charger four-door!” and people stopping in their tracks to get a better look tells me there’s definite enthusiast interest in the new car … but not its electric powertrain. And after driving it through the world’s biggest cruise-in, I think I know why.

Fratzonic Doesn’t Work Quite Right
I like the Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust. It adds a level of silliness to an already absurdly proportioned, equipped and priced vehicle that actually does resonate well with the general public. No really, it does! The number of people who asked to hear it, or who giggled when I activated it, was considerable. It’s not the first EV to make fake powertrain noises tied to a drive mode and linked to the vehicle’s acceleration; that would be the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N. But here’s the problem with the Charger’s system: It doesn’t work as well as the Hyundai’s does, and that’s because it doesn’t properly emulate a gas engine’s characteristics like the Hyundai system does. There are three specific areas that make it unpleasant to use instead of a surprise-and-delight feature.
First, the loudness and activation of the Fratzonic system is tied to specific drive modes. If you’re just driving around normally, in one of the normal modes, you can’t switch it on independently (but you can completely shut it off for totally silent running). It’s louder in Sport mode and loudest in Track and Drag modes. This does somewhat emulate real exhaust systems that open additional flaps and valves when you activate sportier drive modes, but there’s no reason it shouldn’t be completely independent of drive modes here. Sometimes, you want the noise without the Drag drive mode changing everything else about the car’s behavior. Fix No. 1: Decouple Fratzonic from the drive modes and make it independently selectable.
2026 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack | Cars.com photo by Aaron Bragman
Second, when you’re accelerating, the Fratzonic “engine noise” rises with your speed … and stays there. If it was a gas car, you’d be yelling “Shift, shift!” and thinking something was wrong with your transmission, or that the nut behind the wheel doesn’t know how to drive a stick shift. It’s almost like a continuously variable transmission’s soundtrack, where the CVT brings an engine to an optimal rpm and keeps it there. It feels unnatural and is unpleasant to listen to if you’re cruising at higher speeds. Fix No. 2: Fratzonic exhaust sounds are fake anyway, so add fake transmission shift points as part of the acceleration noise to keep it sounding realistic.
Third, while you can “rev” the exhaust sound when the gear selector is in Park, you can’t when you’re in Neutral. Anyone cruising a boulevard past people who want to hear your car rev, fake or not, knows that you need to be able to put the car in Neutral, let it coast and give the accelerator pedal a few stabs to entertain the audience. Can’t do that in the Charger Daytona; it makes no noise when you do, making this an inadequate cruise-night car for that reason. Fix No. 3: Allow drivers to “rev” the Fratzonic system while the car is rolling along in Neutral.

There’s Certainly Potential
While some Dodge fanboys might never accept the idea of an electric muscle car, the idea is not without some promise. The Charger Daytona is the first of its kind and has largely been shunned by the traditional muscle-car buyer, but that doesn’t mean a revamped electric Dodge muscle car doesn’t have a future. Putting the gasoline Hurricane engine in the Charger might help the Charger (even though it’s still not a Hemi), but the electrification of Dodge needs to happen without electric powertrains replacing the gas engines its customers crave.
The few fixes to the current electric Charger Daytona listed above would go a long way toward helping to establish its credibility with enthusiasts, and the beautiful part is that it wouldn’t require any hardware changes. It’s all just software controlling the noise the Charger makes, and it shouldn’t be a huge deal to modify.
2026 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack | Cars.com photo by Aaron Bragman
But to truly establish the Dodge brand as a purveyor of electric sports machines, a rethink needs to happen regarding what the brand stands for and how an EV fits into it. A lighter, cheaper, more forward-looking sports car with a new name would likely be a better idea than trying to make the Charger an EV. Let the Charger go back to being a proper gas-powered muscle car suitable for cruise nights, and bring us something truly new for Dodge’s next chapter.

Is the Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling a Good SUV? 3 Pros, 3 Cons
By Jim Travers

2024 Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling | Cars.com photo by Christian Lantry
Key points:
- Cars.com editors liked the Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling’s boxy profile, dual-access liftgate and ride quality.
- However, the 2024 model’s Free Wheeling trim had outdated tech, as well as a basic interior and an underwhelming powertrain.
The Ford Bronco Sport launched for the 2021 model year, offering compact SUV buyers a boxier and more rugged-looking alternative to more carlike competitors (including Ford’s own Escape). Inspired by the original Bronco of the 1960s, it also brought more than a little retro style. For 2024, Ford cranked up the retro factor with the addition of a new Free Wheeling trim, a throwback to a similar option and graphics package offered in the 1970s; it added multicolor bold stripes, matching 17-inch wheels and other distinctive bits.

Because the Free Wheeling trim is limited to cosmetics, with no changes to the powertrain or mechanicals other than those wheels, its driving experience is pretty much like that of most Bronco Sports. Overall changes to the Bronco Sport for 2025 include an infotainment update and other improvements, some of which address our concerns with the 2024 model covered here.
Cars.com Road Test Editor Brian Normile spent some time behind the wheel of a 2024 Bronco Sport in the Free Wheeling trim to see what’s new and how it compares with the last Bronco Sport we tested. Tap the link above for the details in his expert review; for a quicker look, read on for three things we like about the Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling and three we don’t.
What Do We Like About the Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling?
2024 Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling | Cars.com photo by Christian Lantry
1. The Beauty of a Box
The Bronco Sport’s interior room is decent upfront, with an open and airy feel aided by a rotary shifter mounted low and out of the way. The SUV’s upright shape and large glass area make for good visibility all around, and the boxy profile helps make for decent cargo room. There’s plenty of head and shoulder room in both rows, too, but rear legroom is not as generous as upfront.
2. Trick Liftgate
A feature we’re happy to see is the Bronco Sport’s dual-access liftgate, which gives the option of either lifting it in one piece like a conventional hatch or opening just the window for smaller items — which is also handy for carrying longer items without having to drive with the full hatch open. While a little thing, the liftgate adds a measure of convenience that will likely be appreciated by the outdoorsy crowd Ford is targeting with the Bronco Sport.
3. Ride and Handling
The Bronco Sport’s more trucklike vibe extends to its driving experience, which is fine as long as you’re not expecting the more agile feel of a typical car-based SUV. The SUV’s steering provides decent feedback, and ride quality is good overall. However, it feels as if the Bronco Sport has a higher center of gravity, which makes it less at home on twisty roads when pushed.

What Do We Dislike About the Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling?
2024 Ford Bronco Sport Free Wheeling | Cars.com photo by Christian Lantry
1. Retro Tech
Unfortunately, the retro vibe carried over to the 2024 Bronco Sport’s infotainment system. Rather than having the latest version of Ford’s Sync, our test vehicle was stuck with Sync 3. While simple enough to use, the system is several generations behind the latest version, leaving it with a dated look and feel. However, the good news is that the Bronco Sport retains physical controls for radio tuning and volume. (Ford addressed this by giving the Bronco Sport an infotainment update for 2025.)
2. Basic Interior
The cabin has a businesslike (if basic) look and feel, with cloth seats and a lot of hard plastic surfaces. Design details and material choices add visual appeal, and the Free Wheeling trim livens things up with red stitching and bold use of color to match the exterior graphics. It helps, but the overall look is still more functional than upscale.
3. Poky Powertrain
Our test vehicle had the 181-horsepower, turbocharged three-cylinder engine that powers all 2024 Bronco Sport trims except the Badlands. While performance and response are lively enough for around-town driving, our test vehicle tended to run out of steam at higher speeds, without a lot in reserve for highway merging and passing. Fuel economy is another issue, as the engine was EPA-rated at an unimpressive 25/29/26 mpg city/highway/combined for 2024. (It’s rated at 25/30/27 mpg for all but the Sasquatch trim for 2025.)

Nissan Hits Pause Button on Ariya EV for 2026
By Robert Duffer
September 18, 2025
Share
2025 Nissan Ariya | Manufacturer image
Key Points:
- Nissan has halted production of the all-electric Ariya for 2026 in an effort to consolidate resources.
- The redesigned 2026 Leaf will be the only Nissan electric vehicle on sale in the U.S. for the new model year.
Nissan is canceling the 2026 Ariya electric SUV for the U.S., according to an Automotive News report Thursday. The report cites slowing electric-vehicle sales, ongoing import tariffs and the end of the $7,500 federal EV tax credit come Sept. 30.

A Little Ariya Lore
The Ariya five-seat SUV launched for 2023 after delays, but it impressed with its premium cabin, comfortable ride and a potent dual-motor e-4orce variant. However, it was priced higher than many electric SUVs, exceeding $60,000 for the top trim level. Nissan subsequently cut prices, and the 2025 Ariya with a larger 87-kilowatt-hour battery pack and more competitive 289-mile EPA-rated max range had an equally more competitive price in the low-$40,000 range.
However, while sales of the Ariya increased 24% in the first half of 2025 compared to the same time in 2024, the Ariya was the beleaguered brand’s second-worst-selling SUV ahead of the full-size Armada.
In the meantime, Nissan will reallocate resources to its more affordable EV, the updated 2026 Leaf. The Leaf — which was the first mass-produced EV to launch for the 2010 model year — has grown from a hatchback to a crossover. Production of the new model has shifted away from Smyrna, Tenn., which is near Nissan’s North American headquarters and where the old Leaf had been manufactured since 2013, to Tochigi, Japan. (The Ariya is also built in Tochigi.)
In May, Nissan announced it would slash its workforce by 15% and cut its global manufacturing plants from 17 to 10 in an effort to reduce costs and streamline efforts. The automaker had been the subject of mergers and acquisitions prior to that, and a planned merger with Honda fell apart in February. Nissan’s plans to convert its Canton, Miss., factory into an EV hub producing two distinct EVs by 2028 also appears to be in jeopardy; in July, the company reportedly announced it delayed EV production there by at least 10 months.

Can You Still Buy a Nissan Ariya?
Nissan didn’t rule out the Ariya’s return for later. But for shoppers who are interested in buying an Ariya now, the 2025 model can still be found on dealer lots where available. For those who still want a 2026 EV, the new Leaf is still expected to go on sale in the fall.

Hyundai Recalls 31,000-Plus Ioniq 6 EVs for Charging Port Door
By Corinne Vercoe
September 18, 2025
Share
2025 Hyundai Ioniq 6 | Manufacturer image
Hyundai is recalling more than 31,000 examples of its Ioniq 6 electric sedan over an issue with the charging port door.
Related: More Hyundai News
Affected vehicles include model-year 2023-25 Ioniq 6s. The involved vehicles’ charging port door and outer panel retaining hooks may not be sufficiently engaged, which could lead to the door detaching. Detachment of the door panel while the car is in motion increases the risk of a road hazard and crash.
To resolve the issue, dealers will apply an adhesive on the charge port door assembly for free. Hyundai will notify owners Nov. 10, but those with further questions can call the automaker at 855-371-9460 (Hyundai’s number for this recall is 282), or visit NHTSA’s website to check their vehicle identification number and learn more.
