When Dodge unveiled the next-generation Charger Daytona EV, enthusiasts worldwide held their collective breath. But Dodge had an ace up its sleeve: the 2025 Dodge Charger SIXPACK, powered by the potent 3.0-liter Twin-Turbo Hurricane Straight-Six engine.

Gasoline power isn’t dead at Dodge—in fact, it has evolved into something faster, smarter, and significantly more tunable.

Meet the Hurricane: Two Potent Flavors

The new STLA Large platform allows Dodge to offer the Charger in both two-door coupe and four-door sedan configurations, backed by two distinct outputs of the twin-turbocharged inline-six powerplant:

  • Charger SIXPACK Standard Output (S.O.): 420 horsepower delivered through twin low-inertia Garrett turbochargers, providing instant torque and effortless low-end punch.
  • Charger SIXPACK High Output (H.O.): 550 horsepower and over 520 lb-ft of torque, with forged aluminum pistons, higher boost pressures (up to 26 psi), and dual high-pressure direct fuel injectors per cylinder.
Charger SIXPACK H.O. Quick Snapshot:
- Architecture: 3.0L 24-Valve Twin-Turbo DOHC Inline-6
- Output: 550 Horsepower / 521 lb-ft Torque
- Drivetrain: All-Wheel Drive with Rear-Wheel Disconnect
- Transmission: 8-Speed TorqueFlite Automatic
- Body Styles: 2-Door Coupe & 4-Door Fastback Sedan

Standard All-Wheel Drive with Burnout-Ready RWD Mode

Every gasoline-powered Charger SIXPACK comes standard with an advanced all-wheel-drive system equipped with front axle disconnect.

Under normal cruising and bad weather conditions, all four wheels grip the tarmac with unrelenting traction. But with a single flick into Track or Drift Mode, the front driveshaft is disengaged, sending 100% of the 550 horsepower directly to the rear limited-slip differential for smoky, tire-shredding donuts and traditional muscle car theatrics.

Aggressive Stance & Muscle DNA

Visually, the SIXPACK keeps the widebody muscle proportions that fans adore. With wide front fenders, an aggressive functional dual exhaust out back, wide hood heat extractors, and retro-modern styling paying homage to the iconic 1968 Charger, it demands instant street respect.

Inside, the cabin features dual dynamic screens, a pistol-grip shifter, ambient altitude lighting, and heavily bolstered sport buckets trimmed in Nappa leather and suede.

Why the SIXPACK Matters

While the HEMI V8 will always remain a legendary badge in muscle car history, the twin-turbo Hurricane I-6 delivers more power, higher volumetric efficiency, and monstrous aftermarket tuning potential. The muscle car isn’t dying—it’s simply getting boosted.
