Mopar is bringing back the Super Bee! On the 60th anniversary of the Charger, they released the news that the new Charger will be available with 600Hp from a twin turbo inline 6 - they call it the 2027 Charger Sixpack Super Bee in Launch Edition spec

In order to make best use of its added horsepower, the Super Bee also receives bespoke chassis enhancements. The suspension setup sees front spring rates increase by 12 percent and rear spring rates by 6 percent, while front tension-link bushing stiffness increases by 25 percent and front handling-link bushing stiffness jumps by 50 percent. The rear stabilizer bar is also stiffened by 20 percent for good measure. Dodge says that these tweaks should both improve steering response and limit understeer on the track.

The rear star of the suspension setup are the new Continuous Damping Control (CDC) dual-valve adaptive dampers that replace the passive units on lesser Chargers. All four corners of the car are also supported by 20-by-11-inch wheels wrapped in 305/35ZR20 Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 summer tires. Behind those wheels sit massive 16-inch Brembo brake rotors, with six-piston calipers up front and four-piston units out back. These massive stoppers provide 27 percent more brake pad area than before and brake fade resistance is twice that of the defunct SRT Charger models.

  1. RWD on the fly?? And,sounds like they've taken a leaf out of Aussie Chargers of the 70's...265 CI straight six,near 300HP naturally aspirated! Built right here in Adelaide.

    1. they don't mention the 6 pack Chargers from Australia... but THEY SHOULD! THAT is where it began! I say RESPECT the origin! Well, you know I say that, mean that, and live that. It's what I do.
      The RWD on the fly? Interesting... I guess so the AWD gets less wear and tear when attempting rear wheel burnouts, drifting, etc
