In this video I took the 2017 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona for a spin and found the good, the bad, and the ugly side of the four door muscle car.
This Charger R/T Daytona came dialed in at $45,120 and was equipped with “Customer Preferred Package 29S” that includes the black grill, a functional hood scoop, a Mopar cold air intake, the Super Track Pak, humongous 20″ wheels, and PLENTY of black vinyl all over the car.
This package builds off the original R/T model, so it still has the 5.7 liter HEMI V-8 engine that outputs 370 horsepower and 395 lb-ft of torque. Attached to that engine is a Torqueflite 8 speed automatic transmission, that despite able to shift quickly through the gears, is still an automatic transmission, and therefore a big ol’ minus in our opinions.
Come check out what I think about this four door muscle car and thanks for tuning in!

If I buy a v8 I’m not tryin to save gas 😂
So basically there is no bad and ugly you’re just complaining about the features on the display
That looks like torred
With the uconnect you can preset temperature for your seats 💺 hidden feature
Don’t forget the camshaft and the Lifters 🤣🤣
Does the 4cyl feature hurt the engine long term?
My next car, I wanted a scat, but I really don’t need a scat
NOW THATS WAT ICALL THAT MANPOWER,,,,😜
Ima trade my ss for a daytona just cause of the room an for my kids
Lifelong Ford guy. I was thinking about a Daytona 392, but ran across a 2019 Daytona RT with 4500 miles for $31,500, and it looked and smelled brand new. Couldnt pass it up, I'm a middle aged man, so Im not gonna race anyone, but it's def not slow. Its very fun to drive, for a large car, very roomy and comfortable, yet responsive, and it makes a great daily driver and road trip car. A Peddle Commander makes it even livelier. First Dodge ever, and very happy with the deal I got. Still may eventually step up to the 392, but not right now.
Ok this was already hard to keep watching but he lost my interest the moment he complained
8 speed lmao oh wtf and he didn’t like the UConnect “it’s too distracting” lmao wow won’t be looking at any of his videos. Do your homework and look at real vehicle reviews.
The complaints u had about the car are honestly really petty. So all in all i would say there isnt anything bad about the car.
Did this car you drove have the performance handling package with 4 piston brembos?
Great!
Dodge is no reliable brand , I love the Charger look !
How is the ride quality ?
Best review I’ve seen for these cars. Thank you
Pretty good review. I agree with you 100% regarding the heated/cooled seats and the Uconnect screen. I too would prefer separate switches for those functions. In my opinion, I think too much info goes thru that info system. I've heard where other guys had the screen go blank or the updates drained their battery with the engine off. I own a V-6 Mustang at the moment and would love to trade up to a Charger. (Especially now that Ford puts plastic oil pans and drain plugs on the Mustang GT.) I just can't bring myself to trust those FIAT electronics. However, a clerk at a local gas station has a V-6 Charger. And she told me that she has over 200,000 miles on it with no problems whatsoever. Maybe I will have to pull the trigger on one?
Looks like Torred red to me. Go Mango is Orange. Love it!! Chewie or Wake the neighbors mode👍👍 Just ordered a 19 5.7 Charger Daytona👍 Glad I found your review👍😂😂Thanks for the review. Yep wanted a big road car for hwy. on the flat lands Chrysler employees report 27-28 mpg e z on the hwy. Stay in 4cly mode. 👍👍👍
Achieved 29.7mpg @70mph for over 300 miles. 22mpg around town.
not 370hp😕
real Daytona 485HP ⬅️
Man that car looks kind of funny, especially the side of the car, the challenger looks so much better
the ones critizizing are th ones that can't afford a real musclecar. They are stuck with thier 80 hp lawnmower engines with a fart can muffler:)
I test drove one of these even tho it was just the 5.7 but dude those seats…. omg. They literally hug you and they're so comfortable.
The back seats have heated seats and a center console too, but that $40,000 price tag for a 5.7? No sir, I'll wait for the 392 thank you.
That or a 2015 f150 lariat lol
08:06 I have not driven this car yet but can't you just put the car in sport mode and drive with the rpm's high if you want to listen to the engine? Why would you talk crap about a transmission it there is nothing wrong with it? The only problem with the transmission is you don't prefer it. Your actual problem is with Dodge not offering a manual transmission.
It's stance is ugly as hell it need some sport springs
It’s actually making 395hp dodge just underrated them so the people bought more 392s 🤷🏽♂️
This video lost me soon as he said 5.7
I totally agree with you on that weather alert feature, it's so annoying. It can like you said, actually cause more accidents than without it.
Hey, thanks for the video! It's great to have a roaring sound when you need it, to have fun, etc, but can you drive silently in this car? When you have a headache after work and you need to have some quiet time while commuting back home, can this car provide you that? Or is it always rumbling?
it's 395hp and 410 lb of torque not 370hp
