For the last two years, the honest answer to "should I buy the electric Charger" out here has included a shrug. Not because the car was not quick, it is genuinely quick, but because charging it on a Manitoba road trip meant an adapter, a bit of planning, and a fair amount of hope. That specific problem is the headline change for 2027, and it is the kind of change that moves a car from interesting to actually buyable for some people. If you want to see what is on the ground while you read, our new Dodge Charger inventory in Portage la Prairie is online and updated as cars land.

This is the Canadian change list for the 2027 Charger, read the way we would read it across the desk. What changed, what the six model lineup actually looks like, what the NACS port genuinely means for a prairie owner, and what has not been announced yet.

Key Takeaways

• The Daytona gets a native NACS charging port for 2027. Stellantis Canada calls it new for 2027 and describes it as direct access to the Tesla Supercharger network without an adapter. That is the single biggest change on the list.
• Six Canadian models. Charger R/T and R/T Plus on the 3.0 litre SIXPACK twin turbo inline six at 420 horsepower and 468 lb ft. Charger Scat Pack and Scat Pack Plus on the SIXPACK High Output at 550 horsepower and 531 lb ft. Charger Daytona Scat Pack and Daytona Scat Pack Plus, all electric, at 670 horsepower and 627 lb ft.
• More than 25 new customization options, including Petrol Blue performance leather, Demonic Red seat belts, a Satin Black painted hood and expanded Mopar graphics.
• Orders are open now for the SIXPACK powered 2027 lineup, with 2027 model year cars scheduled to start arriving in dealerships in Q3 2026.
• No Canadian pricing yet. Stellantis Canada says 2027 Charger Canadian pricing will be available at a later date, so we are not printing a number, and you should be skeptical of anyone who does.

The NACS Port Is the Change That Matters

Here is the change, in Stellantis Canada's own framing: the 2027 Charger Daytona gets a native NACS charging connection, giving direct access to the Tesla Supercharger network without an adapter.

If you have never lived with an electric vehicle, that sentence may not land. Let it land. Until now, a Daytona owner who wanted to use the largest and most reliably maintained fast charging network in North America had to carry a physical adapter, plug it in every time, and deal with the small everyday friction of an extra part that can be forgotten, dropped, frozen to something, or left in the other car. A native port removes that entirely. You pull up, you plug in, you go.

What it does not do is change physics, and this is where we part company with the national coverage. Cold weather still cuts electric range, meaningfully, and a January in Manitoba is as hard a test as this continent offers. A battery works harder when it is cold, cabin heat draws real power, and charging speeds themselves drop at low temperatures. None of that is a Dodge problem. It is every electric vehicle, every brand. The right way to think about the 2027 Daytona is that the charging network problem got a lot better and the winter range problem did not change at all.

The other honest caveat is coverage. Access to a network only helps on the routes where that network actually exists. Before you commit to an electric Charger as your highway car, sit down and map the drives you genuinely make, not the ones you imagine making, and check charger coverage along them. That is a fifteen minute exercise that will tell you more than any review will. We would rather you do that homework first than find out in February.

For the daily use most of our customers describe, which is Portage to Winnipeg and back with the car home in a garage overnight, the arithmetic works fine and always has. The trip to Brandon or up to the lake is where the network question gets real, and 2027 is the year it got a much better answer.

The Six Model 2027 Lineup

Stellantis Canada lists six 2027 Charger models, split across gas and electric.

Charger R/T and R/T Plus. The 3.0 litre SIXPACK twin turbo inline six, 420 horsepower and 468 lb ft, quoted at 4.6 seconds to 60 mph. This is the entry into the gas lineup and, for most buyers, the sensible one.

Charger Scat Pack and Scat Pack Plus. The SIXPACK High Output version of the same engine, 550 horsepower and 531 lb ft, quoted at 3.9 seconds to 60 mph. That is a serious number from a six cylinder, and it is the argument this engine has been making since it arrived.

Charger Daytona Scat Pack and Daytona Scat Pack Plus. All electric, 670 horsepower and 627 lb ft, quoted at 3.3 seconds to 60 mph, with up to 430 kilometres of range and dual motor all wheel drive standard. The all wheel drive point is not a footnote up here. An electric performance car with power to all four corners is a far more sensible winter proposition than a rear drive one.

Both the two door and four door bodies continue across the lineup, so the shape you want is a choice rather than a consequence of the trim you picked.

One thing to be clear about: the electric Daytona is not cancelled. The 2027 electric lineup is Scat Pack and Scat Pack Plus, and the Daytona R/T was already out of the book before this model year. It did not disappear in 2027. If you read otherwise, that is old news being recycled as new news.

More Than 25 New Ways to Build One

The second real change for 2027 is personalization. Dodge has added more than 25 new factory customization options to the Charger, and unlike most "expanded options" announcements, several of these are things people actually ask for at the desk.

The list includes Petrol Blue performance leather with red stitching, Demonic Red seat belts, a Satin Black painted hood, orange and black Brembo caliper choices, and expanded Mopar graphics packages with blade stripe and dual stripe options in a range of colours.

Why this matters more than it sounds: the difference between a factory option and an aftermarket one is warranty, fit and resale. A satin black hood done at the factory is a paint code. The same look done in a shop afterwards is a conversation you have to have with every future buyer. Dodge putting these in the order book means you can build the car you want without building a story you later have to explain.

Our practical advice is unchanged from every other loud option list: pick the two or three that genuinely make the car yours and stop. Fully loaded personalization is where order sheets get away from people.

Timing, Pricing, and What Has Not Been Said

Orders for the SIXPACK powered 2027 lineup are open now, and 2027 model year cars are scheduled to start arriving in dealerships in Q3 2026. That is a short runway, which is good news if you have been waiting.

On price, Stellantis Canada has said only that pricing for the 2027 Charger Canadian lineup will be available at a later date. That is the whole statement, and we are going to respect it. You will see American price figures circulating, including some large numbers attached to the electric Daytona. Do not treat those as Canadian. US and Canadian pricing are set separately, currency conversion is not how it works, and quoting a converted US figure to a Canadian buyer is how people end up disappointed at delivery. When the real Canadian numbers land, we will have them.

If you want to be ready when they do, the useful preparation is knowing your own position. Get a real number on your current vehicle and start a finance application now, so that when pricing drops you are making a decision rather than starting a process. Allocation on a first year build tends to reward the people who were organized early.

FAQs

What is new on the 2027 Dodge Charger?

The headline change is a native NACS charging port standard on the Daytona, described by Stellantis Canada as new for 2027 and giving direct access to the Tesla Supercharger network without an adapter. The other significant change is more than 25 new factory customization options.

What engines does the 2027 Charger have in Canada?

The 3.0 litre SIXPACK twin turbo inline six at 420 horsepower and 468 lb ft in the R/T and R/T Plus, the SIXPACK High Output at 550 horsepower and 531 lb ft in the Scat Pack and Scat Pack Plus, and an all electric dual motor setup at 670 horsepower and 627 lb ft in the Daytona Scat Pack and Daytona Scat Pack Plus.

Is the electric Charger Daytona discontinued?

No. The 2027 electric lineup is the Daytona Scat Pack and Daytona Scat Pack Plus. The Daytona R/T was already out of the lineup before 2027, so it is not a new cut.

How far does the 2027 Charger Daytona go on a charge?

Stellantis Canada quotes up to 430 kilometres. Treat that as a warm weather best case, as you would with any electric vehicle. Cold weather reduces range on every brand, and a Manitoba winter is a hard test.

What does the NACS port actually change?

It removes the adapter. A Daytona owner can plug directly into Tesla Supercharger stalls. It does not change how far the car goes, and it does not change how much cold weather costs you in range. Check charger coverage on the routes you actually drive before you buy.

How much is the 2027 Charger in Canada?

Stellantis Canada has not released 2027 Canadian pricing. Any Canadian figure you see right now is either a US number converted by someone or a guess. Ask us and we will give you the real one when it lands.

Can I order one now?

Yes for the SIXPACK powered models. Orders are open now, with cars scheduled to start arriving in dealerships in Q3 2026.

The Bottom Line

The 2027 Charger is not a redesign, and it does not need to be. The gas SIXPACK lineup carries real performance at two power levels, the electric Daytona keeps 670 horsepower and standard all wheel drive, and the personalization list finally covers what buyers were asking for. The change that actually moves the needle is the NACS port, because it takes the most annoying practical objection to owning an electric Charger and removes it.

What it does not remove is the honest winter conversation, and we would rather have that with you before you sign than after. Come talk it through in Portage la Prairie.
