Discover The All-New 2026 Dodge Charger SIXPACK
Dodge has officially unveiled the gas-powered models joining the 2026 Charger lineup, and the news is big for muscle car fans. The legendary nameplate now pairs modern engineering with the unmistakable attitude that’s defined the Charger for decades. At the heart of this release is the all-new twin-turbo inline-six SIXPACK engine, delivering impressive performance in both the Scat Pack and R/T trims.
These gas-powered models join the recently launched all-electric Charger Daytona, offering buyers the choice between all-electric performance and the traditional punch of gasoline muscle.
3.0L Twin‑Turbo SIXPACK
The new 2026 Charger gas lineup centers on Dodge’s SIXPACK twin-turbocharged 3.0L inline-six engine. This powerplant is available in both the Scat Pack and R/T, with 420 horsepower in the R/T and 550 horsepower in the Scat Pack. While the 2026 Charger does not include the 5.7L HEMI V8, which was recently announced as returning to the Ram 1500 lineup, the new twin-turbo SIXPACK engines deliver even more power.
| Model / Year | Engine | Horsepower | Torque |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 Charger R/T | 5.7L HEMI V8 | 370 hp | 395 lb-ft |
| 2023 Charger R/T Scat Pack | 6.4L HEMI V8 | 485 hp | 475 lb-ft |
| 2026 Charger R/T | 3.0L Twin‑Turbo SIXPACK | 420 hp | 468 lb-ft |
| 2026 Charger Scat Pack | 3.0L Twin‑Turbo SIXPACK | 550 hp | 531 lb-ft |
Both gas models come standard with all-wheel drive for confident traction in a range of conditions, along with the ability to shift to 100% rear-wheel drive at the push of a button. That means you get the best of both worlds—control when you want it and classic rear-drive dynamics when you don’t.
2026 Dodge Charger Scat Pack
The 2026 Charger Scat Pack raises the bar for factory-built muscle cars. Powered by the 3.0L Twin-Turbo Sixpack, this model includes:
- 550 horsepower
- 531 lb-ft of torque
- Targeted 0–60 mph: 3.9 seconds
- Quarter-mile: 12.2 seconds
- MSRP* starting at $54,995
Standard all-wheel drive ensures year-round performance, and the ability to disengage the front axle for rear-wheel drive brings back the classic Charger driving feel. Available performance features include Line Lock for tire-warming burnouts, Launch Control for consistent acceleration runs, and available Brembo high-performance brakes for superior stopping power. The Scat Pack will be offered in both two-door and four-door configurations, with the two-door arriving first and the four-door set to follow in mid‑2026.
2026 Dodge Charger R/T
Slated for release in mid‑2026, the 2026 Charger R/T also carries the twin-turbo SIXPACK engine under its hood, tuned to 420 horsepower and 468 lb-ft of torque. With an MSRP* starting at $49,995, the R/T brings a more accessible entry point into the twin-turbo Charger family while still delivering muscle car performance. Like the Scat Pack, it features standard AWD with a rear-drive mode and a choice of two-door or four-door body styles once fully available.
2026 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack
Available now, the 2026 Daytona Scat Pack takes performance to the next level with an all-electric powertrain.
- 670 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque
- 0–60 mph: 3.3 seconds
- Quarter-mile: 11.5 seconds
- Add 70 miles of range in 10 minutes with DC fast charging**
- MSRP* starting at $59,995
Two‑Door and Four‑Door Variations
The 2026 Charger lineup marks the return of two-door body styles alongside the familiar four-door layout. Dodge will roll out availability in phases:
- Charger Scat Pack: Two-door arriving first; four-door coming mid‑2026.
- Charger R/T: Two-door and four-door arriving mid‑2026.
- Daytona Scat Pack: Two-door and four-door available now.
Two-door and four-door options let buyers choose between a sportier coupe profile or the added practicality of a sedan—without sacrificing performance.

For drivers seeking precision control, the Scat Pack also includes advanced features like Line Lock and Launch Control as standard equipment.
