With the Dodge Charger comes a rich history with deep roots in the American muscle car community that dates back to the 1960s. Over the years, Dodge has consistently held its position as a powerhouse in the muscle car world. Here at Kufleitner Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we are sad to see the reign of a legend like the Dodge Charger come to an end, but we are excited to share Dodge's Last Call lineup with you! For our readers who haven't heard yet, Dodge has revealed some very special Charger models for its victory lap in the 2023 model year. The team here at our Youngstown, Ohio, Dodge dealership is proud to share all the details about the King Daytona, one of the Dodge Charger Last Call models. This model draws its design and powertrain from the Charger Hellcat Redeye and pays homage to the iconic 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, affectionately known as "King Daytona," once raced by the legendary Willie Robinson. In this article, we delve into the distinctive features and exceptional qualities that define the 2023 Dodge Charger King Daytona as Dodge pays tribute to its remarkable heritage.

How Powerful is the 2023 Dodge Charger King Daytona Engine?

Constructed on the Charger Hellcat Redeye Widebody's robust foundation, the King Daytona surely lacks no power to back up the aggressive look. Leveraging the power of this platform, the King Daytona has the coveted 6.2L supercharged HEMI V8 under its hood, shaking the pavement with 807 horsepower and 707 lb-ft of torque. This launches the King Daytona from 0-60 in just 3.6 seconds! The potent engine is complemented by an eight-speed automatic transmission with steering wheel paddle shifters for sequential gear control. Staying true to the Charger's heritage, the King Daytona retains its rear-wheel-drive configuration, ensuring a thrilling and immersive driving experience.

2023 Dodge Charger King Daytona Exterior Style

Any Dodge Charger is sure to turn heads wherever it goes, but even in a crowd, all eyes will be on the King Daytona. Dressed in a distinctive Go Mango orange hue, its exterior draws in the eyes, while subtle details keep the eyes captivated. The rear fenders, hood, and roof proudly showcase Satin Black King Daytona decals, strikingly contrasting the bright orange paint job. Subtly paying homage to the Charger's deep roots, a Bright Chrome hood pin kit is added to the hood. The Charger King Daytona rolls on Satin Carbon Warp Speed wheels with a 20-by-11-inch measurement underneath widebody fender flares, posing an intimidating stance on the road. Behind these stylish wheels sit six-piston Brembo high-performance brake calipers, painted in a matching orange color, seamlessly integrating with the color scheme while boosting the car's performance capabilities. The King Daytona's exterior color theme is complemented by Satin Chrome badging. Completing the ensemble, a Satin Black lip spoiler adorns the trunk lid, enhancing both the aesthetics and aerodynamics of the Charger King Daytona.

What is the Cabin Design of the Charger King Daytona?

When designing the Charger King Daytona, Dodge set out to capture the spirit of the American muscle car, featuring a bold and aggressive exterior seamlessly transitioning to a thoughtful, driver-centric cabin. Adorned with comfortable black Nappa leather upholstery that is accentuated by vibrant orange stitching, the cabin seamlessly meshes the exterior color and harmoniously contrasts the black surfaces. Orange 'King Daytona' emblems are proudly embossed on the front seatbacks, while a commemorative badge is found on the right side of the dashboard. Thoughtfully placed carbon fiber accents throughout the cabin enhance the model's sporty nature. The microsuede-wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel, adorned with carbon fiber details, not only gives the driver a tactile connection to the road but also reinforces the King Daytona's athletic appearance. Elevating the interior experience are premium features, including a captivating ten-speaker Harman Kardon audio system that envelops you in rich sound and a power sunroof for bountiful natural lighting. Central to the cabin is an 8.4-inch touchscreen, oriented towards the driver and equipped with navigation, ensuring that essential information is conveniently at your fingertips. This driver-centric layout, a symbol of Dodge's design philosophy, centers the console towards the driver, creating an empowering and commanding driving experience.

What Are the Dodge Charger Last Call Models?

Aside from the King Daytona, there are two other Last Call special edition models. The first is the Super Bee, which uses the Scat Pack and Scat Pack Widebody trim level as its base. Super Bee Scat Pack models are painted in a head-turning B5 Blue paintjob, while the Widebody variants come in the revived Plum Crazy. The Super Bee distinguishes itself with exclusive 'Angry Bee' graphics on the rear fender and hood, paying homage to the models' drag racing heritage. Notable Super Bee features include a functional hood scoop, a black hood pin kit from Mopar, red brake calipers from Brembo, black SRT exhaust tips, and adaptive damping suspension. The Super Bee rides on 20-by-9.5-inch alloy wheels, while the Widebody variants feature 20-by-11-inch wheels. Also available for the Scat Pack trim is the Swinger special edition. The Swinger throws it back to the '70s with groovy Gold School accents on the badges, wheels, and rear fender graphics. The Swinger is available in White Knuckle, Sublime Green, or F8 Green paint.
