2023 Dodge Charger Scat Pack: The Last of Its Kind

September 25th, 2024 by

The 2023 Dodge Charger Scat Pack Widebody is powered by the 392-cubic-inch HEMIĀ® V-8 engine with the best-in-class naturally aspirated 485 horsepower mated to the TorqueFlite 8HP70 eight-speed transmission.

If you’re a muscle car enthusiast, this might be your last chance to own a piece of American automotive history. With the 2023 Dodge Charger Scat Pack, we’re witnessing the end of an era. After decades of roaring V8 engines, neck-snapping acceleration, and the iconic growl that only Charger can produce, Dodge is waving goodbye to its gas-powered Chargers. And as the curtain falls on the internal combustion engine (ICE) variants, there’s never been a better time to grab one of the few remaining units available at Safford CDJRF of Springfield, VA.

What’s Changed?

The big news? This is it. 2023 marks the final year of the Dodge Charger in its traditional gas-powered form. With electrification on the horizon, Dodge is setting the stage for an all-electric future, leaving behind the rumble of the HEMI V8 that has defined this muscle car for generations. While the Charger Scat Pack remains true to its roots with its monstrous 6.4L V8 engine, its significance now goes far beyond horsepower. It’s a collector’s item in the making, a future classic that will forever be remembered as the last of its kind.

Performance and Fuel Economy

The 2023 Charger Scat Pack packs a punch with its 485-horsepower, 6.4L HEMIĀ® V8, delivering 475 lb-ft of torque. Whether you’re cruising down I-95 or hitting the track, this muscled beast knows how to make its presence known. A quick stomp on the pedal sends you from 0-60 mph in just 3.8 seconds, reminding you exactly why the Charger has ruled the muscle car scene for years.

Sure, it’s not the most eco-friendly vehicle out there, with a combined fuel economy of around 18 MPG, but let’s be honest—that’s not why you’re looking at the Charger ScatPack. You’re here for the heart-pounding excitement, the unmistakable roar of that HEMI engine, and the thrill of knowing you’re driving a true American icon.

Interior Comfort and Features
