Dodge Charger NASCAR Designs Spark Excitement

The possibility of Dodge making a triumphant return to the NASCAR Cup Series has been a hot topic among racing fans for years. Now, with digital artist Justin Calvin (@j_cal_designs) releasing jaw-dropping renderings of a Dodge Charger SIXPACK stock car built to NASCAR’s Next-Gen (Gen 7) specifications, those rumors feel closer to reality than ever.

Dodge last competed in the Cup Series in 2012, securing the championship with Brad Keselowski and Team Penske. Since then, whispers of a comeback have never quite faded. With Dodge’s renewed focus on performance-driven models like the Charger SIXPACK, a return to NASCAR would be the perfect platform to showcase the brand’s racing pedigree.

Calvin’s latest digital designs imagine what a new Dodge Charger would look like under the current Penske Racing operation. The first design features three-time NASCAR Cup Series Champion Joey Logano’s iconic #22 Pennzoil ride, reimagined with the aggressive and modern lines of the SIXPACK. The second design takes on the 2023 NASCAR Cup Champion Ryan Blaney’s #12 BlueDEF / Menards car, blending bold sponsor graphics with the Charger’s unmistakable muscle car styling.

These designs aren’t just fan art—they’re a glimpse into what could be a thrilling return for Dodge to America’s top stock car racing series. The combination of the Charger SIXPACK’s powerful presence and the cutting-edge Gen 7 platform could make Dodge a formidable competitor once again.

While nothing is confirmed yet, the buzz surrounding these digital concepts only fuels the hope that Dodge will soon return to the grid. And for longtime brand fans, seeing a Dodge Charger battling it out on the track is exhilarating.

Let’s just hope that if Dodge does make its way back to NASCAR, the series considers revisiting its classic 2003 format before the current playoff-style chase system. A return to those roots, paired with the comeback of an iconic American performance brand, would make for a golden era of stock car racing.
