With both gas and all-electric versions now sharing the Charger name, the 2026 lineup is more complicated than Dodge buyers are used to.
Besides the choice of 2-Door and 4-Door body styles, buyers now also have the options of gas or all-electric powertrains, some of which carry the same trim level names and have identical designs. For example, there’s the gas-powered Scat Pack and the all-electric Daytona Scat Pack. While the Daytona name is only used by all-electric variants, not all buyers are aware of that.
Thankfully, prospective Dodge Charger buyers can now get a clearer picture of the 2026 Charger lineup as the configurator finally went online on Dodge’s customer website. Interestingly, the Sixpack name does not appear in the model names of the gas-powered variants; it’s just a nickname for the twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline six-cylinder gas engine, which, confusingly enough, is also known as the Hurricane.
That means that the easiest way to realize if you’re looking at a gas-powered or battery-electric Charger is to see if it has ‘Daytona’ in the name; if it does, it’s all-electric, if it doesn’t, it’s gas-powered.
Gas-Powered Charger: From $51,990 To $64,680
With that out of the way, you should know that a base 2026 Charger R/T 2-Door powered by the 420-hp Hurricane engine starts at $51,990 (including $1,995 destination charge), but you can add around $8,000 to the tally by ticking all the available packages ($1,295 BlackTop Package, $1,495 Driver Convenience Group and $2,995 Performance Handling Group), as well as going for the bigger wheels and tires, flashier body colors and interior upgrades.
The same goes for the 2026 Charger R/T 4-Door, which starts at $53,990 but can be maxed out at around $62,000 when all the packages and options are added. Dodge also lists a one full-day session of high-performance driving with professional instruction and time on the track at the Radford Racing School in Chandler, Arizona (a $1,500 option on all model variants).
Scat Pack Plus Adds More Equipment Inside And Out
For those who want a higher spec, the next step in the lineup is the R/T Plus, which retains the same Standard Output Hurricane engine hooked to an 8-speed automatic and standard AWD, but unlocks a series of upgrades. Those include a 16-inch digital cluster (over the R/T’s 10.25-inch), a head-up display, 64-color ambient lighting, heated and ventilated seats, memory front seats, wireless charging pad, an available 18-speaker Alpine audio system, and an optional glass roof. The R/T Plus starts at $56,985 in 2-Door configuration and $58,985 as a 4-Door.
The most powerful version of the 3.0-liter twin-turbo Hurricane engine (High Output), which makes 550 hp and 531 lb-ft of torque, can be had in the Scat Pack and Scat Pack Plus trims that do 0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds. The Scat Pack starts at $56,990 as a 2-Door and $58,990 as a 4-Door, while the Scat Pack Plus kicks off at $61,985 as a 2-Door and $63,985 as a 4-Door.
All-Electric Charger Daytona: From $61,990 To $68,985
After the discontinuation of the Charger Daytona R/T base electric version for the 2026MY, the all-electric Charger Daytona offers only two trim levels: the base Scat Pack and Scat Pack Plus, each available with a 2-Door or 4-Door body.
Both feature the dual-motor AWD powertrain that makes 670 horsepower and 627 lb-ft of torque, enabling a 0-60 mph time of 3.3 seconds and 270 miles of range. The Daytona Scat Pack 2-Door starts at $61,990, while the Daytona Scat Pack Plus 2-Door is priced from $66,985.
The more practical Daytona Scat Pack 4-Door starts at $63,990, while the Daytona Scat Pack Plus 4-Door has the highest starting MRSP of the 2026 Charger at $68,985. Tick all the boxes and you’ll go above $80,000 in no time.
