Good news awaits Dodge fans and users, and the automaker is all set to bring in its latest flagship model and step up the game in muscle car power wars.

Dodge will start taking orders for a new 2017 Challenger T/A and Charger Daytona with enthusiast packages that up the performance for cars with both the 5.7- and 6.4-liter "392" HEMI V-8 engines, reported Motor Trend.

The special edition 2017 pack for Dodge Charger Daytona will come with a 5.7 liter build on the Charger R/T model. It will also be increasing the intake and exhaust capacity with the help of Mopar cold air induction system with conical air filter.

The electronically controlled 2.75-inch active performance exhaust system also adds to the efficiency of the pro model. Additionally, the Super Track Pack also includes performance brake linings, three - mode ESC calibration and high performance Goodyear Eagle F1 tires.

The special 2017 model marks the fourth use of the Charger Daytona name. The 5.7-liter sedan gets the full SRT package for the first time with the distinctive front and rear fascias, side sills, Satin Black performance spoiler, and an unmistakable HEMI logo hood graphic as well as Dodge stripes and Daytona grille badging. 

For the enthusiastic of a high tech luxury car, the pricing starts at $39,890, with an additional $3000 for  the package. The orders will be taken from September, and there is no limit on the number of vehicles. Additionally, users can also buy packages or future models.

According to Kunikis, Dodge will continue the production of this model and the package until the demand subsides, providing users with an optimum experience.

"They are not autonomous. They are not hybrids. They do not get 50 mpg. You cannot summon them with your smartphone," said Kuniskis. "But they might encourage teens to put down their phone and enjoy a ride down a boulevard in a true muscle car."

Meanwhile, the 2017 Dodge Charger Daytona 392 starts at $44,995. The T/A Plus starts at $40,140 and the T/A 392 starts at $43,995 minus the tax.
