Yeah, This Charger Is Packing A HEMI® Under The Hood

Yeah, This Charger Is Packing A HEMI® Under The Hood​

Meet The 2026 Dodge Charger Hustle Stuff Drag Pak...​

Dodge is about to break the internet with this one. The Brotherhood of Muscle just pulled the wraps off one of the wildest factory-built race cars we’ve ever seen — the 2026 Dodge Charger Hustle Stuff Drag Pak. This isn’t your average Charger, not by a long shot. This is a purpose-built, track-only drag car packing a supercharged 5.8-liter (354 cubic-inch) HEMI® V8 under the hood, built to dominate the NHRA Factory Stock Showdown series. And with only 50 serialized units planned, it’s bound to be one of the rarest, most coveted Dodge muscle machines ever produced.

 
Big news. It fits, it’s coming and it can restore the magic of Dodge.
Dodge needs to expand the performance themed lineup.
1- Challenger/Cuda shorter muscle car with very different styling from Charger but the same combo of engines. Effectively a shorter Charger spin off.
2-Midsize STLA lineup Coupe or hatchback, Hurricane 4, off Compass. Belvidere facility.
3- Compact STLA sports roadster/ fastback Hurricane 4. Need a facility in U.S.
4- Viper built Anywhere. Standard HO Six Pack power, Turbo Hurricane 6. Supercharged Hurricane 6. Maybe a Hemi.
5- SUV offerings Compact Hornet(Compass) Midsize Stealth,(Cherokee)Full size Durango. (Grand Cherokee). Ditto the above.
The spinoffs are fully there. Do it.

Remember this is a purpose-built race car. This features a completely unique front cradle which allows the HEMI to sit back and much lower in the front of the car. Also it doesn't have all the production stuff under the hood, windshield wiper solvent, cooling stuff, fuse panel, and what not. A HEMI will fit, but this package is different, a production one would require a different setup completely and would look much different.
 
That’s why the front fenders on Charger SEMA concept, IMO, is to widen the engine bay to get the HEMI fits for the production model
