2025 Dodge Charger Lineup Breakdown: All Trims Explained

And the Charger family’s not done—it’ll keep growing in the next few years.

There is a lot going on with the new 2024 Dodge Charger. Like, a lot. There are two- and four-door models, electric and gas-powered examples, and not every 2024 Dodge Charger configuration is necessarily alike. The four-door variants, for starters, are only available with the lower-output gas engine offering; at launch, only two-door cars will be offered first. Moreover, have we mentioned that Dodge’s newest muscle car is a hatchback?

To help you sift through the different Chargers coming this year and beyond, we’ve thrown together a handy little guide. Take our Hemis, we mean, our hands, and let’s begin:

There Are Electric Chargers—and Gas-Fed Ones, Too

This is one of the new Charger’s cleverest tricks, and the thing most likely to trip people up. You see, in the run-up to the 2024 Charger’s reveal, Dodge had been adamant that the muscle car would be all-electric, though it was careful with how it worded that claim. We figured otherwise, even last year, and saw through it when it became clear Dodge wasn’t going to put all of its muscled eggs in the electrification basket—at least not at first.

The Charger’s STLA Large platform was designed from the outset to support battery electric and internal-combustion powertrains, even within the same model. Just look at the Maserati GranTurismo, which isn’t a fellow STLA Large user but hails from elsewhere in Stellantis and is available in all-electric Folgore spec as well as gas-fed Trofeo form with a twin-turbo V-6. The Charger will be no different, save for its STLA Large use.

So, how can you tell a gas-fed Charger from an EV version? Easy: Look at the name: Charger Daytonas are the electric versions, while those with “Sixpack” in their names are the gas-fed versions. At first, Dodge will only sell the Charger in two-door Daytona form, but four-doors and gas-fed variants will follow later.

Speaking of Timing…

The 2024 Charger family will only include the all-electric two-door Charger Daytona R/T and Scat Pack models. Those go on sale mid-2024 as part of the 2024 model-year offerings. Moreover, the four-door versions of the Daytona R/T and Scat Pack EVs will follow in the first quarter of 2025, likely as 2025-model-year vehicles.

Consequently, the two gas-powered Charger Sixpacks will be due at that time, which are separated based on body configuration: The two-door Charger Sixpack gets a higher-output (H.O.) version of the twin-turbo 3.0-liter I-6 Hurricane engine found in the 2025 Ram 1500 and Jeep’s Wagoneer SUVs; while the four-door Charger Sixpack gets the standard-output (S.O.) Hurricane I-6 engine with less power.

How Powerful Are the New Chargers?

In order of least-to-most powerful: Charger Sixpack (four-door), Charger Sixpack (two-door), Charger Daytona R/T (two- and four-door), Charger Daytona Scat Pack (two- and four-door). The four-door Charger Sixpack’s S.O. engine puts down 420 hp, while the two-door Charger Sixpack’s H.O. engine ups that figure to 550 hp—more than it makes in the new Ram 1500 or Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

If there weren’t so much nostalgia wrapped up in Dodge’s 5.7- and 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 engines—which are no longer part of the Charger lineup at all—it’d almost go without saying that the new Hurricane sixes spank them on power. However, let’s be clear: The S.O. Hurricane I-6 easily eclipses the old 5.7-liter Hemi (395 hp), while the H.O. version leaves the 6.4-liter SRT-derived Hemi (475 hp) behind, too.

Leaving all of those engines in the dust are the electric motors found in the electric Charger Daytonas. Even the less powerful R/T trim’s dual motors make 456 hp and 404 lb-ft, with a “Power Shot” boost mode upping that horsepower figure to 496 ponies for brief periods. The Scat Pack puts down 630 hp and 627 lb-ft—with Power Shot raising the former number to 670 hp. Close watchers of the old Charger (and its two-door Challenger sibling) will notice that Dodge’s Scat Pack trim occupies the middle performance tier in the family. Aside from the upcoming SRT Banshee, there almost assuredly will be more powerful SRT Charger Daytonas and Hell-something variants that’ll up the power considerably over the R/T and Scat Packs, not to mention the old Charger SRT Hellcat models.
