Dodge Charger Sixpack Roars Louder Than the Daytona EV
Muscle car-lovers praise the bold sound of Dodge’s new Sixpack compared to its electric sibling
I’ve been watching Dodge’s move into electrification with both curiosity and a bit of doubt. But the moment when I heard the new Dodge Charger Sixpack in action, I was sure that the combustion era still had fight left in it. Forget the prevailing speculation. The High Output Hurricane inline-six has entered the lineup, and it sounds genuinely feral.
During a recent street shoot in Detroit, Dodge let the Sixpack loose. I was lucky enough to catch a raw clip shared online. The car? A sleek, wide-stance Charger coupe, most probably built on the new STLA Large platform.
Let’s be honest, it wasn’t the visuals that hit me, but it was its exhaust note. The Dodge Charger Sixpack featuring the turbocharged 3.0L inline-six roared with a raspy aggression. You don’t merely hear this car; you feel it deep in your chest.
Now don’t get me wrong. The Daytona EV is a marvel. Instant torque, an all-wheel-drive layout, and the synthetic Fratzonic Chambered Exhaust system give it a presence. However, the Sixpack isn’t faking anything. That’s real combustion, real gearshifts, and real sound coming from a finely tuned powertrain. The Sixpack is real-life adrenaline.
And performance? Dodge hasn’t disclosed final numbers yet. However, sources suggest the High Output version will push well 500+ horsepower with torque delivery that’s smoother and more linear than any HEMI we all have seen before. Expect rear-wheel-drive at minimum, possibly with an AWD variant in the pipeline for the ones who want grip to match the grunt.
Dodge is showing us they can do muscle in both kilowatts and RPMs. And for purists like me, the Sixpack proves that gasoline still has a voice. A loud, wild, unapologetic one.
