Bittersweet. This is a word that perfectly describes the 2020 Dodge Charger Hellcat Daytona and the explanation is simple. The sugary part comes from the fact that the nameplate is making a comeback, but since it lacks the extreme aero elements of the original... the point is obvious.
So, what has changed between 1969 and 2019? Quite a lot, really, with carmakers facing tons of eco and safety pressure nowadays. And while this kind of progress is obviously remarkable when it comes to your average vehicle, it certainly gets in the way of performance machines.
Fortunately, the 2020 model packs an uber-meaty 717 horsepower, which not only makes it more muscular than the original, but also gifts it with the title of the powerful production sedan in the world.
Of course, the Internet won't leave such matters alone, which is how we ended up with this rendering. The pixel play brings the four-door closer to the two-door original.
To be more precise, the 2020 Charger Daytona now packs the massive tail and sleek nose of the original. Heck, even as a die-hard aficioando, I'd have a hard time imagining a mainstream carmaker releasing a car that would look like this nowadays.
Now, Adry53customs, the digital art label behind the work, went a bit further and took the super-sedan down the customization route.
As such, the machine now sits closer to the road, hopefully via an air suspension, which would allow the driver to raise the car when required. Then we have the custom wheels, which could easily draw attention on their own.
As I've mentioned when talking about another rendering of the sort, which came right after the online debut of the 2020 Charger Hellcat Daytona, perhaps one of the 501 owners will gift the machine with an aftermarket kit based on such pixel plays, so we can all get to enjoy a nice slab of the Golden Era.
