Performance
Tap into gas-powered performance. The Charger Scat Pack is powered by a 3.0L Twin-Turbo SIXPACK engine that offers low-inertia, high-flow turbochargers that spin up fast to deliver a peak boost of 30 psi. With the high-output engine, more air is pushed into the combustion chamber, creating more horsepower and more torque. And with the ability to instantly switch from all-wheel drive into rear-wheel drive—this vehicle delivers true muscle power. Two-door option available late 2025 and a four-door option available mid-2026. Explore aggressively-engineered available racing options that put this muscle car in a lane of its own. Standard on Charger Scat Pack, Line Lock lets the driver lock the front brakes only, while enabling rear wheel spin. When engaged, Line Lock helps clean/warm the tires before launch and perform tire-smoking burnouts with a push of a button and punch of the throttle. Launch straight forward, right off the line. Standard on Charger Scat Pack and Daytona Scat Pack, Launch Control sets the torque at the wheels offering straight-line acceleration at the starting point and reducing wheel slip based on surface conditions. Standard on Daytona Scat Pack, Race Prep lets drivers choose one of two racing styles. Drag Racing optimizes battery temperature to avoid derate and deliver quick acceleration off the line. Track Racing cools the battery temperature, allowing it to heat up gradually and helping to maintain stamina when racing longer laps. Pre-production model shown. Standard on Daytona Scat Pack, Drift/Donut Mode sets you up for the thrill of drifting and donuts using three retractable slip angles, rear axle-biased torque and tailored damper settings. Drift Min provides the most traction control intervention and allows for the minimum slip, Drift Max provides less traction control for more slip and Donut provides the least amount of traction control for the wildest slip of all. All 2026 Dodge Charger models have the power of all-wheel drive with the ability to switch into rear-wheel drive at your command. Expertly crafted suspension systems amplify the performance in the 2026 Charger. Experience a powerful ride with greater grip. The Multilink Front Suspension uses negative-chamber induction and forged aluminum links to amplify traction and strength. The fully-independent Integral Link Rear Suspension offers enhanced steering feel and added body control at high cornering speeds. Standard on Charger Scat Pack and Daytona Scat Pack, the evolved Dual-Valve Adaptive Damping System offers a plusher ride in rough-road scenarios and a connected, engaging feeling through tight turns. The system achieves this control by using two dedicated valves—one focused on compression, the other on rebound—to allow for more damping force in handling scenarios. Near-perfect weight distribution on Daytona models and a rigid chassis on all 2026 Charger models helps you handle even the tightest curves like a boss. Get greater acceleration, again and again. The 400-volt propulsion system features a high-voltage lithium-ion battery that delivers an initial 550 kilowatts of power before shifting to a steady rate of over 500 kilowatts. It can then sustain that discharge rate to the electric drive motors for a full quarter mile, and ultimately delivers a total all-electric driving range of over 270 miles on Daytona Scat Pack. Located on the performance steering wheel of Daytona EV models, PowerShot delivers an incremental 40 extra horsepower for 10 seconds, and can be used repeatedly to amplify performance. The central module of the brake-by-wire technology in the 2026 Charger Daytona continuously monitors input from sensors in the vehicle while adjustable Regenerative Braking lets you customize how much of that kinetic energy is used to help recharge your battery. The result? Optimized brake time, a natural feel in all conditions, reduced brake pad fade, and even more time out on the track.
