There is a new Dodge Charger on the market. You will have heard about it, being electrical and all. To make sure everyone seems to be within the know concerning the 2025 Charger Daytona, Dodge launched a particular interactive web site that appears prefer it makes use of an internet design template straight from Y2K.

You may see for your self at Dodgechargerportal.com… if you may get it to load. It took a number of tries for us, oftentimes hanging up at 50 or 86 p.c for a number of minutes at a time. We checked our dial-up to ensure it was cooking on the full 56k, then remembered we’re on a wired 1GB ethernet connection. And but, right here we’re, nonetheless hovering at 86 p.c.

Nonetheless, may very well be worse. We could not get the positioning to load in any respect on cellular.

When it does load, we’re greeted by “Garrett” who’s standing by because the digital tour information on this digital Dodge storage. Swipe round and you will see a Charger Daytona Scat Pack, Charger Daytona R/T, and one thing underneath a canopy which will or is probably not a Banshee. There are additionally movies, explainers, “deep dives,” and extra.

It is all rendered with the sharpness of 1994’s Wing Commander 3, and we’re fairly certain we used that interface on some interactive encyclopedias again within the day.

Are we being a bit harsh right here? Most likely, however seeing Garrett’s uneven avatar set in opposition to a standard-definition storage definitely caught us off guard.

To Dodge’s credit score, the corporate is attempting like hell to get individuals excited concerning the Charger Daytona. The automobile is not gradual, and it would not look dangerous, both. This web site (when it really works) is stuffed with info, after which there’s the automobile underneath the duvet. It is clearly a teaser for one thing extra highly effective—most likely the Banshee, slated to interchange the previous Hellcat because the top-dog Charger with gobs of electrical horsepower.

However that was earlier than the departure of ex-Stellantis boss Carlos Tavares, who was apparently the one one who wished to kill the Hemi in America. Now that every little thing has modified, may that white cowl be hiding a brand new Charger Hellcat? It kind of appears like there is a Demon-esque hood scoop underneath there. Perhaps that is why Dodge commissioned such a low-quality web site. Gotta pay for that analysis and growth one way or the other.

In any case, Dodge would not appear too curious about selling the web site. We solely discovered it talked about via Stellantis North America’s social account on X (previously Twitter), and admittedly, we would not be shocked if it disappears in lieu of some upgrades.

However should you’re a toddler of the Nineteen Nineties, you would do worse than soar onto the positioning and bump round, if just for the retro expertise.
