2028 Dodge Charger to Gain Supercharged V-8, Documents Show

Hellcat power will reportedly return to the gas-fed Charger, where it’ll send power exclusively to the rear wheels.

Prepare for your houses to be filled with the sound of supercharged V-8 engines thundering down your neighborhood streets once again. The 2028 model year is slated to herald the return of the Hemi supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 to the Dodge Charger lineup, internal documents obtained by MoparInsiders show.

Welcome back to the roads, Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat; you have been missed. According to the report, the document shows that the Hellcat powertrain will be made available for the four-door Charger sedan as well as the two-door coupe. In either form factor, the powerplant will be mated to the ZF 8HP95 eight-speed automatic transmission. Perhaps most excitingly, though, is that the document also reports that unlike the Hurricane-powered Chargers of today, which come standard with an all-wheel-drive layout, the Hellcat Chargers are being developed as rear-drivers.

The document shows that the 2028 lineup will retain the 3.0-liter Hurricane inline-six in three configurations. The 420-hp Standard Output is back, as are the 550-hp High Output and 600-hp High-Output plus (Super Bee) variants. They’ll be joined by the Charger Daytona’s electric offerings, and rounded out with the return of the supercharged 6.2-liter SRT engine.

2’s specs a mystery. One possibility is that Dodge brings the Hellcat Hemi back unchanged. That would mean a stout 717 horsepower. 2 found in the 2027 Ram 1500 SRT TRX pickup.
