2027 Dodge Charger Super Bee Launch Edition

The 2027 Dodge Charger Super Bee Launch Edition is powered by a 600 horsepower 3.0-liter twin-turbo SIXPACK High Output performance engine paired with an eight-speed automatic Torqueflite 880RE transmission delivers 100 more horsepower than the previous-generation Super Bee. The standard all-wheel drive system has on-demand 100% rear-wheel-drive on-demand mode while the Brembo Brakes consist of 16-inch vented rotors and six-piston front/four-piston rear fixed calipers. Compared with the SIXPACK H.O. Charger Scat Pack, the Super Bee powertrain delivers more peak power, a broader torque curve, more powerful boost response, stronger top-end acceleration and greater sustained output during extended high-performance driving. The result is a Charger that pulls harder out of corners, charges more aggressively toward redline and continues making power deep into the speedometer. The new dedicated RWD button mounted directly on the steering wheel allows drivers to switch to RWD Mode on the fly, making it easier to send 100% of available torque to the rear wheels for drifting, donuts and old-school muscle car fun.
