There’s a very good chance that Dodge shoves a V-8 back into the engine bay of the Charger. The brand’s efforts to make the electric Daytona the ultimate offering haven’t resonated with buyers, and now that Stellantis has a new CEO, Dodge and the other American brands have a bit more freedom to decide their fates.
It’s unclear if Dodge follows Ram in reviving the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8, or if muscle car maker has other ideas. Earlier this year, when Dodge CEO Matt McAlear was asked during a press conference whether a Hellcat engine would fit in the new Charger, he said, “Don't be surprised if it would fit."
