A New Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Could Return By End Of 2027

More evidence is piling up that indicates Dodge is almost ready to revive the Hemi-powered Charger. Earlier this year, a report alleged a new Charger SRT Hellcat was in the early stages of development, possibly returning for the 2028 model year, and that appears to be true.

A new Automotive News report alleges that Dodge will begin production of a new Charger Hellcat, with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine, by the end of 2027, and Dodge is apparently betting big. According to the publication, Dodge has supposedly already told suppliers it plans to build 12,000 Charger Hellcats per year.

If the report is true, Dodge will likely reveal the new Charger SRT Hellcat by next August at the annual Roadkill Nights. It’s the event where the automaker unveiled the new Charger Super Bee with a 600-horsepower inline-six.

Motor1 reached out to Dodge about the report and a spokesperson told us:

Dodge stopped building Hemi-powered Chargers (and Challengers) at the end of 2023. Production of the successor, a two- and four-door Charger, began at the end of 2024, but as a battery-electric vehicle.

The first new combustion-powered Chargers wouldn't begin rolling off the assembly line until late 2025, but they lacked the one thing that made their predecessor so popular: Hemi V8 engines. The Charger currently comes with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six engine in two tunes.

Dodge has also staggered its rollout over the last couple of years, and that decision is reflected in the sales. Through September, the automaker has sold 8,029 combustion-powered Chargers in both body styles, a 330 percent increase from a year ago.
