2026 Scat Pack Powertrains: A New Era of Performance

Drawing on a legacy built by the iconic Scat Pack powertrains of the past, the 2026 Dodge Charger Scat Pack lineup ushers in a bold new chapter of performance with its updated SIXPACK engine. The 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack brings that same level of innovation and pure muscle prowess to its all-electric drive motor options.

Introduced beneath the hood of the 1969 Dodge Super Bee as a trio of two-barrel Holley carburetors atop its 440 cubic-inch V8 engine, the SIXPACK powertrain was quickly recognized for its fusion of brute force and everyday drivability. Today, the SIXPACK delivers that same dynamic strength and sharp responsiveness, while also paying tribute to the Dodge muscle car spirit that defined earlier generations.

Joining the evolution for the modern era is the electrified Charger Daytona Scat Pack, channeling that same classic Dodge attitude through cutting-edge battery-electric technology. Together, these powertrain innovations mark a bold turning point for Dodge, honoring its heritage while reshaping the possibilities of Scat Pack performance for a new era.

Dodge Charger SIXPACK Scat Pack High-Output Engine

Harness the exhilarating power of the high-output 3.0L Hurricane twin-turbo inline-six (I6) SIXPACK engine behind the wheel of the 2026 Dodge Charger Scat Pack. A pair of 54-millimeter (mm) high-flow Garrett GT2054 turbochargers spool rapidly to deliver up to 30 pounds per square inch (psi) of boost, feeding an advanced cooling and fuel system designed to sustain high performance under hard acceleration. This powerplant delivers quick-rising acceleration with its 550 horsepower and 531 pound-feet of torque. Its street-scorching 0 to 60 MPH of just 3.9 seconds and a quarter-mile runtime of 12.2 seconds give the Scat Pack the kind of relentless capability expected from its namesake.

Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack Battery & Dual Motors

The 2026 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack channels its dual 400-volt (V) G2500 front and rear battery-drive motors to unleash 670 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque, capable of going 0 to 60 MPH in just 3.3 seconds, and covering a quarter mile in an asphalt-melting 11.5 seconds. Its 100.5-kilowatt-hour (kWh) high-voltage lithium-ion battery is engineered for speed, delivering a peak 550 kilowatts (kW) off the line and maintaining 500 kW of power through a quarter-mile. Delivering a driving range of over 270 miles, compact front and rear motor units work in tandem to enhance traction, power delivery, and regenerative energy recapture under braking. When that extra burst of power is required, the PowerShot function adds up to 40 extra horsepower for 10 seconds with a tap of the steering-wheel button.
