[00:00] The Dodge Daytona EV is not selling. Stellantis wants $80,000 for this silly thing, but curiously, their lease deals are very good.
[00:14] We're talking sometimes sub $200 a month for a 600 horsepower muscle car that just happens to be electric. I don't know where else you're gonna get that performance
[00:27] for that small amount of money per month. Should you buy one of these things? Nah. But hey, if you want to have something goofy for a little while, why not? Is it built well? No. No, stuff breaks on it. It's slapped together in the normal
[00:46] Dodge fashion. But will it be boring? No. This is one of the most exciting EV I've ever driven because it behaves most like a regular car. This, every EV I have driven feels exactly the same as
[01:04] the one that does before. The only difference is how quiet can they make it. Lucid EV being the best EV I've driven because it feels the most luxurious. Cybertruck being the worst. but this Dodge is beautiful in the way the Cybertruck isn't.
[01:24] Gosh, I need to make another video just about that.
