7,000-Mile Dodge Charger EV Lost $50,000 in Value After Just One Year.

I leased a 24 Charger Scat Pack about a year ago. It was dirt cheap. It is the nicest, fastest, most fun car I have ever had.

It’s faster than a Hellcat Redeye. 670 hp, 0-60 in 3.3 seconds. Instant torque.

With that said, I think Stellantis really screwed up. They built a car with no market.

Mine had an $80k sticker. Nobody wants an $80k Dodge.

There are no low cost options, like previous Charger and Challenger.

If you are a greenie, you probably don’t want a Dodge. Technology is a little dated and the range is only about 250 miles.

Muscle car guys generally dislike (or hate) EVs.

It weighs 6000 pounds. Hardly a sports car.

Mine has been good, but the forums are full of horror stories of problems.

I heard they only sold about 200 Charger EVs 1Q this year.

I am definitely not an EV guy, but it has been a fun experience. Don’t think I want another one though.

I would never buy an EV for the depreciation issues stated here. In another year when my lease is up, I bet it is a $30k car, at the most.

If you haven’t ever driven one, you should do it, just for the experience.
