Watch out, Tesla -- Dodge on Thursday announced plans to introduce an electric muscle car by 2024.

Officials with Dodge's parent company Stellantis say they've developed electric technology that will enable the new car to go from zero to 62 miles per hour in just two seconds. That would outperform the Dodge Demon, which can go zero to 60 in 2.3 seconds -- and that's with a gas-guzzling 840 horsepower, eight-cylinder engine.

Although Dodge officials admit their current customer base seems to be attracted to loud, street racing-type vehicles, they believe the power of the yet-to-be-named vehicle could win them over.
