If you’re attending SEMA, don’t forget to check out the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Banshee Concept. There are several tiers of the Banshee with the wildest one using an 800-volt electrical system and should produce over 670 horsepower. One of my favorite parts about the electric beast is the carbon wheels. Mmmmmm Electric muscle.
