Crashed 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T with Only 682 Miles Hits Auction Block After Accident

A 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T, with a mere 682 miles on the odometer, has surfaced at an IAAI auction in Texas after an accident. The electric muscle car, boasting a 93.9-kWh battery and 496 horsepower, sustained front-end damage significant enough to deploy the driver's airbag, leading the insurance company to declare it a total loss. The damage appears concentrated on the front bumper, LED lights, and hood. While the extent of internal damage remains unknown, the auction presents a unique opportunity for a skilled repair shop or mechanically inclined individual to potentially restore the vehicle. The Charger Daytona R/T, a base model with a starting price of $59,595, features a nickel-cobalt-aluminum battery powering front and rear motors, achieving 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds. Despite the damage, the auction offers a chance to acquire this high-performance EV at a potentially reduced price. Bidding is open to those willing to take on the challenge of bringing this crashed Daytona back to life.
