Dodge Charger launch and European market return

Overview

Dodge has unveiled the eighth generation of the Charger, built on the STLA Large platform. This new lineup marks a transition away from traditional HEMI V8 engines toward two distinct propulsion paths: the all-electric Daytona and the internal combustion SIXPACK variants. The SIXPACK models utilize a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged Hurricane inline-six engine. Performance varies by trim, with the R/T delivering approximately 414 to 420 hp, while the Scat Pack High Output reaches between 542 and 550 hp. The high-performance Super Bee Launch Edition, marking the nameplate’s 60th anniversary, utilizes twin 56mm Garrett turbochargers to produce up to 608 hp and 720 Nm of torque. The electric Daytona models feature a 400-volt system with a 100.5 kWh battery and dual-motor configurations. The top-tier Scat Pack variant can produce up to 670 hp. Dodge has also announced pricing for the 2025 Daytona EV lineup: the R/T starts at $59,595 with 456 hp, the Scat Pack is priced at $73,190 with 670 hp, and a forthcoming SRT Banshee is expected to exceed 800 hp. These electric models utilize an 800-volt architecture capable of reaching an 80% charge in approximately 20 minutes. To appeal to traditionalists, Dodge has included the ‘Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust’ to simulate engine sounds. To mark the model's 60th anniversary, Stellantis is launching the Charger in Europe, including availability in Spain. The European lineup, starting at 66,000 euros, includes both coupe and four-door sedan body styles and will offer all-wheel drive for the first time. Design elements inspired by the first generation include a specific front grille shape, LED headlights, and a continuous LED light bar across the rear bumper. Following the 2021 merger that brought Chrysler, Dodge, and RAM into the Stellantis Group, the brand is leveraging corporate synergies to navigate the declining market for internal combustion engines in Europe.
