Stellantis has announced the delay of the production of the Dodge Charger Daytona R/T, an electric muscle car model, due to the implications of U.S. President Trump's auto tariffs. The decision, communicated by Dodge CEO Matt McAlear, impacts the vehicle slated for the 2026 model year. The Windsor Assembly Plant in Ontario, which employs around 4,500 people, has faced several shutdowns and production adjustments amid ongoing tariff assessments. While primarily known for the Chrysler Pacifica, production of electric models began in December, signaling a broader change in the company’s portfolio.
The change would affect the 2026 model year of the Dodge Charger Daytona R/T as we continue to assess the effects of U.S. tariff policies.
There have been several shutdowns at the facility since the trade war began earlier this year, leading to a mix of changes over 12 weeks.
