Dodge Plans HEMI V8 Return in 2026 Charger

News summary

Rumors suggest that Dodge is planning to bring back the HEMI V8 engine for the Charger by the 2026 model year, despite initial claims that it was no longer feasible. Production of the new Charger Sixpack, powered by a twin-turbo I6, will begin in May, with deliveries expected this summer. Dodge CEO Matt McAlear highlighted a shift in company attitude toward V8 engines, indicating that they are no longer considered undesirable. While the HEMI's return is anticipated, it will follow the introduction of the I6 models, as production of the new engines is ramping up to meet demand for other vehicles like the Ram 1500 and Durango. The revived HEMI production will focus on multiple variants, although there are no confirmed details on the exact specifications yet. Dodge remains committed to its muscle car heritage, ensuring that high-performance gasoline options will continue alongside electric models.
