2025 Dodge Charger SIXPACK Four-Door Pilot Production Begins

Dodge Accelerates Production of ICE-Powered Chargers with the HURRICANE I6 Engine...

The all-new Dodge Charger (LB) has sparked significant controversy, especially as Stellantis pivots towards a fully electric vehicle (EV) strategy. Amid ongoing launch issues and resistance from American consumers to EVs, Dodge enthusiasts are eagerly focusing on the upcoming internal combustion engine (ICE) version of the Charger. This version will feature the twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter HURRICANE I6 engine lineup, promising thrilling gasoline performance for the next generation of muscle car fans.

Despite delays in launching the all-electric Dodge Charger Daytona, MoparInsiders recently revealed that Dodge has expedited production of its ICE-powered SIXPACK model by five months. Within a day of the announcement, a pilot unit of the new SIXPACK coupe was spotted in Metro Detroit, offering a sneak peek at what’s coming.

Sources close to MoparInsiders have confirmed that the Windsor Assembly Plant in Ontario, Canada, has begun building pilot models of the four-door Dodge Charger SIXPACK. Production has ramped up significantly, with over 100 units being assembled daily—a major improvement from the mere 42 units produced just one month ago.

This progress signals Dodge’s commitment to delivering its latest ICE-powered Charger to dealerships by the summer of 2025. The four-door Charger SIXPACK joins the coupe variant as part of Dodge’s strategy to keep its muscle car legacy alive while bridging the gap between traditional ICE models and future EV offerings.

The four-door 2025 Dodge Charger SIXPACK will have the twin-turbo 3.0-liter HURRICANE standard-output (S/O) I-6 engine, delivering an impressive 420 horsepower and 469 lb.-ft. of torque. Compared to the outgoing 5.7-liter HEMI® V8, this modern powertrain adds 50 horsepower and 74 lb.-ft. of torque, offering substantial gains in performance and efficiency.

Paired with the new Chrysler-built, ZF-designed 880RE TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission, the new SIXPACK promises quicker acceleration, smoother shifts, and a more refined driving experience. This advanced powertrain marks a significant improvement over the outgoing Dodge Charger R/T, ensuring the SIXPACK maintains its muscle car roots while delivering cutting-edge performance.

The new SIXPACK four-door will come standard with all-wheel-drive (AWD). However, Dodge has confirmed that the AWD system can be easily disabled at the touch of a button, allowing drivers to switch to rear-wheel-drive (RWD) mode for a more engaging driving experience.

As Dodge moves forward with ICE and EV development, the Charger SIXPACK is expected to play a pivotal role in maintaining the brand’s iconic performance image. With early pre-production models already being tested and full-scale production just around the corner, the Charger SIXPACK is shaping up to be a major milestone in Dodge’s evolution.
