Gas Power Returns to Dodge Charger for 2025
March 6, 2024
In the automotive realm, change is a constant. Just when you thought electric was the way forward, the Dodge Charger throws a curveball. They’re bringing back the internal combustion engine to the Charger for 2025. After the electric version rolls out later this year, get ready for the Charger Sixpack.
Under the hood, you’ll find Dodge’s Hurricane twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six. But the Charger Sixpack isn’t just about power — it’s about options. You can choose between two or four doors, depending on your needs.
Dubbed the Charger Sixpack, this gas-powered automobile offers two versions of the well-regarded Hurricane twin-turbo engine. The standard output gives you a respectable 420 horsepower, while the high-output version cranks it up to 550.
Dodge didn’t skimp on the details. The Charger Sixpack comes standard with all-wheel drive, ensuring you can show off your burnout skills no matter the weather. Diehard Dodge fans might be disappointed in the lack of a V-8 engine option, but Dodge wants you to know these inline-six engines pack a punch. According to the automaker, “The standard output produces more horsepower and torque than the 5.7-liter V-8 in the outgoing R/T, while the high-output motor outdoes the old Scat Pack’s 6.4-liter V-8.”
In regards to outward style, the Charger Sixpack has an interesting design. With a sleeker design more akin to its electric counterpart, it’s sure to have its fans and critics. This time around, the hood is different, though. No grille cutout here. Instead, you get two sleek intakes flanking the Fratzog logo. It’s all about maximum airflow.
Inside, it’s a tech enthusiast’s dream. A massive touch screen, customizable ambient lighting, and retro-inspired gear shifter all scream modern and smart. Plus, there’s Charger branding to remind you of the machine you’re driving.
Production starts in early 2025 in Ontario, Canada. The gas-powered Charger Sixpack is definitely making a comeback, and it’ll be interesting to see how the public receives it.
