Dodge’s new Dodge Dodge charger promises that the old school vibrations initially appear initially appeared in Autoblog.
Dodge is determined to pump muscle fans as it deploys the new version of Sixpack on its charger line.
In December 2023, the Detroit carmaker ended with the production of its familiar charger and Challenger models, a year later, a whole new line of execution, Charger Daytona, started. This was a clear risky move, given that the first models outside the line were powered by a battery, but planning Dodge hoped that the raw power of electric motors would win skeptical buyers.
So far, the bet has not been paid, demand is lagging far after the initial expectations at a time when EV sales are generally delayed. But Dodge has the proverbial ace up into his sleeve and just in time for his annual Roadkill Nights event, he deploys two alternatives with gas power, Scat Pack and Charger R/t.
Returning the charger for gas
Suitable muscle manager, Sixpack is the name Dodge has given the most powerful version so far to his hurricane. The 3.0-liter built-in six will be available in standard and high-ranking configurations, making 550 horsepower and 531 pounds of torque in a charger package that has a “very low class” according to Mickey Bay, a global engine for Dodge Parent Stellantis. It is expected to make a quarter mile in about 12 seconds and to be fine at 177 miles / h. As for the package with a standard output in the R / T charger, it still has many interiors at 420 hp. and 468 pounds.
In fact, even the version of this internal combustion is lagging behind the all -electric charging Daily SCAT charger, rated at 670 hp. With Sixpack Charger will collect 3.9-second 0-60 launch, Dodge said, compared to 3.3 seconds for the battery package-electric battery. But it will have the deep exhaust exhaust exhaust that fans of classic muscle cars expect, coming out of its twins, 100 mm exhaust pipes. There is no artificial audio song “Fratzonic” here.
Six-paca models will direct power through an 8-speed automatic transmission and, like EV packages, the torque will be sent to all four wheels. The standard limited slip differential will help to increase the grip and the two new charger packages will offer both startup control and line lock, together with various selectable devices that include both drift and donut modes. Touching the button also allows the driver to switch to the classic rear -wheel drive mode, and the rear is designed to handle the entire torque that the HO version of Sixpack can throw on it.
More than just an acceleration with a straight line
Dodge Charger and Challenger’s old siblings made some impressive numbers, but were more suitable for a sliding tape than the Twisty Street Course. This is not the new charger, whether in a fully electric or ice configuration, said Audrey Moore, a chief programmer.
Give much of the loan to the all -new Stla large “architectural” shares with a number of different Stellantis models, including different jeeps and rams, as well as the new charger. But they are anything but clones, which allows extensive customization for each product line. Where it matters, the Dodge Muscle car is claiming that Moore, 20% firmly than the old charger. It boasts 10% better suspension and Dodge measurements gives 20% more compatible riding. Meanwhile, Gendeer has been reduced by 20%, becoming a better government, as many reviewers have already noted Charger Daytona.
The internal fuel version of the charger adds Brembo Brakes-with 6-pi-piston front calves-to ensure that it can quickly delete the speed.

Two body styles
At the end of last year, Dodge Daytona was offered at Coupe Configuration. The carmaker recently added an option with four doors for an additional $ 2,000. When buyers later this year this year, buyers will have the opportunity for a charger or convertible later this year, buyers will have the opportunity for coupe or convertible body styles.
The uninitiated may not be able to tell models EV and ice. The first clue will be to look for the badge. As you may have already understood, the Daytona will be reserved for all electric models. The other large clue can be found in the front. Six-pack models will not share the distinguishing R-cry of EV, aerodynamic passage exactly from the nose designed to reduce turbulence while improving descending power.
Gas models, of course, will have a functioning, not a sealed grille. As Bli pointed out that the I-6 hurricane needs a lot of air to make it cool. It also requires a higher hood to get out of this large power engine. With the Daytona models, much of the electric drive technology, including the battery, is mounted under the load floor.

In common
Despite their differences in power and the obvious changes in the body, which requires the gas and electrical versions of the charger have a lot in common. On the one hand, they share a hidden hatchback, which opens in a surprising cavern cargo compartment. Fold the spacious rear seats and you will get up to 37.4 cubic feet of storage.

In nodding charges and challenging models of Yore, the new line of muscle vehicles accepts a horizontal layout of the tool panel, which emphasizes the width of Charger. All versions measure with 2 full inches of widths than previous wide -body models.
IP is dominated by a 12.3-inch infoteer display and depending on your package or a 10.25-inch or 16-inch digital cluster. Both screens are easily reprogrammable and the cluster automatically changes the appearance, including layout and color, depending on the driver mode. The equalized steering wheels are finely different. The EV has a “Powershot” button, which briefly calls maximum power. In gas models. This allows you to set drive modes.
Charger also has a welcome array of technological features, starting with the Uconnect5 operating system. Dodge also claims that it offers more than 100 driver and safety features.
