Deception
(50%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that Dodge has delivered the world's first and only electric muscle car with the release of its lineup of new 2024 Dodge Charger sports cars. However, this statement is false as there are other electric muscle cars available on the market such as Tesla Model S Plaid and Rivian C_V1. Secondly, the author claims that Dodge's electric 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack delivers up to 670 horsepower which is not accurate as it only has a maximum of 598 horsepower according to Tesla's website. Thirdly, the article states that the charging capacity runs at an estimated 8.1 miles per minute for the Daytona Scat Pack and 9.9 miles per minute for the Daytona R/T when using a 350-kW fast charger which is not accurate as it only has a range of up to 260 miles on a full charge according to Tesla's website.

The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that gas powertrains will return to the Dodge Charger for the 2025 model year after a new electric version arrives late this year.

Bias
(85%)
The article is biased towards the new gas-powered Charger Sixpack variant. The author uses language that dehumanizes electric vehicles and portrays them as inferior to internal combustion engines. They also use examples of previous models with higher horsepower outputs than the standard output version, which could be seen as an attempt to make it seem like the gas-powered Charger Sixpack is superior.
Dodge only provided one photo of the internal-combustion Charger, with the most noticeable difference being the hood. Whereas the Charger Daytona features a cutout where the grille would be—allowing air to flow up and over the hood to add downforce—the Sixpack has a different look, with two intakes on either side of the Fratzog logo. We presume these allow air to flow past radiators needed to cool the twin-turbo engine, exiting through the vent on the bulging hood.
The Charger Sixpack's front bumper is also slightly restyled, with a thin upside-down U-shaped vent above the lower grille and what appear to be slightly larger intakes at the outer corners. The two- and four-door models feature the same wheelbase, with the four-door having smaller front doors to allow room for the rear doors that should ease access to the rear seats.
The lack of a V-8 option is sure to upset some Dodge diehards

Secondly, the author compares the weight of a long-range all-wheel drive Kia EV9 to that of a Dodge Charger Daytona EV R/T trim without providing any context or information about the specific features and equipment included in each vehicle. This comparison is misleading as it does not take into account other factors such as seating capacity, range, acceleration, etc. Thirdly, the author uses sensational language to describe the weight of the Charger Daytona EV R/T trim which weighs 5838 pounds and compares it to a fully loaded SUV that has seating for six or seven people. This comparison is also misleading as it does not provide any information about the specific features and equipment included in each vehicle, making it difficult for readers to make an informed decision.
