Dodge just gave enthusiasts something to talk about. The 2027 Dodge Charger Super Bee Launch Edition brings back a nameplate with real history and pairs it with hardware built for the strip. As the local Dodge store, we've been fielding questions since the reveal started circulating, and we want Carmel, NY drivers to have the facts before availability details firm up. If you want to be first in line for updates, reach out through our online contact form and we'll keep you posted as Dodge releases more information.
Specs and availability noted here reflect Dodge's current announcements and remain subject to change ahead of final production confirmation.
The 2027 Dodge Charger Super Bee Launch Edition Arrives in Carmel, NY
Dodge unveiled the Charger Super Bee Launch Edition on August 7, 2026, at MotorTrend Presents Roadkill Nights Powered by Dodge, held at M1 Concourse near Woodward Avenue. The timing lines up with the Charger's 60th anniversary, giving the nameplate a fitting stage for its return. Dodge built the Super Bee around a Super Bee-exclusive high-output tune of the twin-turbo SIXPACK six, with 56mm Garrett turbochargers and a custom calibration taking it to 600 hp, 50 more than the Scat Pack runs from the same engine family. That, plus the track hardware, is what separates it from the rest of the Charger lineup.
For Carmel, NY shoppers, a genuinely new performance option is heading to showrooms in mid-2027. We're already fielding interest from local drivers who remember the Super Bee's earlier generations, and we expect that interest to grow as Dodge shares more specifics.
Everything worth knowing at a glance, then we'll get into what each piece actually does:
-
Engine: 3.0L twin-turbo Super Bee H.O. SIXPACK inline-six
-
Output: 600 hp, 531 lb-ft (peak torque from 3,000 rpm)
-

-

-
Drivetrain: Standard AWD with on-demand 100% RWD mode
-

-

-
Wheels and tires: 20x11-inch gloss black, 305/35ZR20
-
Cooling: more than 50% increase over standard SIXPACK
600-HP SIXPACK Twin-Turbo Engine: The Heart of the Super Bee
Under the hood sits a twin-turbo inline-six badged Super Bee H.O. SIXPACK, producing 600 hp and 531 lb-ft of torque. That horsepower figure comes from larger 56mm Garrett turbochargers, a step up from the 54mm Garrett GT2054 units found on the Charger Scat Pack's SIXPACK HO twin-turbo six, which tops out at 550 hp and 531 lb-ft. Power routes through an 8-speed automatic Torqueflite 880RE, with standard AWD and an on-demand 100% RWD mode for drivers who want old-school tail-out behavior.
Dodge calls this the most powerful, quickest, fastest Super Bee it has ever built. According to Dodge, it surpasses the previous generation by over 100 hp, hits 0-60 mph in 3.6 seconds, and runs the quarter-mile in 11.8 seconds. Those numbers come from Dodge, not independent testing, but they put the car firmly in serious performance territory. Dodge also cites 200 hp per liter of displacement from the SIXPACK engine, another figure attributed directly to the automaker's own testing claims. The engine requires premium fuel to hit these targets.
Track-Ready Hardware: Brakes, Wheels, and Suspension
Straight-line speed only matters if a car can stop and turn, and Dodge clearly built the Super Bee with that in mind. The braking and suspension hardware reads like a track-day parts list rather than a standard trim upgrade.
16-Inch Brembo® Brakes and Gloss-Black 20x11 Forged Wheels
Stopping power comes from 16-inch vented Brembo® rotors, paired with six-piston front and four-piston rear fixed calipers. Dodge claims brake fade resistance improves 3x compared to any SIXPACK Charger and 2x versus the previous-generation SRT Charger, worth noting given how quickly repeated hard stops can degrade braking performance on the street or track.
Wheels are 20x11-inch gloss-black forged units wrapped in Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 tires sized 305/35ZR20. Launch Edition models get Hyper Lime brake calipers as an exclusive color option, a small detail that stands out the moment the car rolls into view.
Aero and Chassis Upgrades Built for the Strip
Underneath the styling, Dodge added real chassis engineering:
-
Auxiliary radiators cool charge air, transmission fluid, and HVAC systems, with Dodge stating cooling capacity increases more than 50% over standard SIXPACK models.
-
A redesigned fascia adds brake and cooling ducts, working alongside a track-tuned front splitter and rear spoiler for stability at speed.
-
Dual-valve Continuous Damping Control (CDC) adaptive dampers adjust in real time, while increased spring rates, stiffer bushings, and a revised rear stabilizer bar sharpen handling.
-
New Track and Drag Modes work with a steering-wheel-mounted RWD button and larger paddle shifters, plus Launch Control designed to reduce wheel slip off the line.
-
The available Drive eXperience Recorder, a 1080p/60fps dashcam offered on the Track Package, lets owners capture runs for later review.
Dodge developed much of this hardware using Stellantis' ARDC simulation center in Windsor, Ontario. That's a lot of engineering muscle behind what could easily be mistaken for a simple muscle car refresh.
Signature Bee Styling: Two-Door and Four-Door Muscle
Dodge offers the Super Bee in both two-door and four-door body styles, both wearing Super Bee-specific styling cues that make the car easy to spot from a distance. Three exclusive colors headline the Launch Edition: Sucker Punch, Shady, and Diamond Black with Sucker Punch accents. Bodyside "stinger" graphics come in gloss-black or Sucker Punch, and a redesigned Super Bee logo takes inspiration from the shape of a turbocharger, tying the badge to what's under the hood.
Inside, cloth high-back performance seats carry an embroidered Super Bee logo, with Sour Lemon accent stitching running throughout the cabin alongside silver and Sour Lemon dual-contrast stitching on other trim pieces. A Super Bee instrument-panel badge rounds out the cabin details. Dodge hasn't confirmed widebody fender flares as part of this Launch Edition's design, so we'll pass along confirmed details as Dodge releases them rather than guess at what's still unannounced.
While you wait on final confirmation, it's worth browsing our current 2027 Dodge Charger inventory to see what's already available on the lot and get a feel for the broader Charger lineup Dodge is rolling out.
Built for Putnam County Roads
A car with this much engineering behind it deserves roads that let it stretch out, and this corner of the Hudson Valley offers exactly that mix. US 6 runs east to west across Putnam County, connecting to I-84 at the north end and giving drivers real stretches to appreciate the Super Bee's throttle response and RWD mode. Head southwest and Route 6 meets the Taconic State Parkway near Shrub Oak, where the sweeping curves are the kind of road CDC adaptive dampers and revised spring rates were tuned for.
We're located right on Route 6 at 1952 US-6 in Carmel, NY, so testing a car like this against local roads isn't hypothetical for us. We've served this community since 1972, and that kind of local tenure means we understand what Putnam County drivers actually want from a performance vehicle, not just what looks good in a press release.
Pricing, Ordering, and Mid-2027 Availability
Pricing for the Charger Super Bee hasn't been announced yet. Dodge has confirmed the Super Bee Launch Edition arrives mid-2027 as a limited-production model, with details on cost, ordering, and market availability coming later this year. We won't speculate on pricing or guess at any gap between two-door and four-door figures, because Dodge hasn't released that information, and we'd rather give you accurate updates than premature numbers.
The broader 2027 Charger lineup is also set for mid-2027 availability, with new colors and options arriving, and new paint, graphics, and caliper colors rolling out starting late 2026. If you're specifically watching for the Super Bee, keep an eye on our new Dodge Charger for sale in Carmel, NY page, where we'll update inventory and ordering details as Dodge confirms them.
