I would think so, they're listed on the EPA site. However, the Durango is classed differently as a mid sized SUV, not a truck. The next (2026) version likely won't have the hemi any more, as it will be a new design based on the STLA Large platform that the new Charger is using. So will also likely have an electric version.

I wouldn't mind the EV option staying available but when you are forced to buy nothing BUT electric, I say screw that...
I'm not interested in buying one but if others do, good for them.
IF the new trend of FREEDOM gains traction, some regulations can be lifted or eliminated which will slow or even REVERSE some oppressive EPA Clean Air/Green mandates and limitations.

Stellantis missed the boat when they built the Charger, It never should have been a 4 door when they brought it back , And now it should never be electric or a 6 cylinder. A real disgrace to such a iconic piece of automotive history.

I don’t mind either option, wasn’t the original available with the slant 6?
I just don’t like electric being the only option for the first year, not crazy about no V8 but we’ve been there before and they came back.
For myself I may consider a turbo 6 model with good options once they hit the used market as my "practical" car.

We do have several new Charger 2 door and 4 door prototypes we have been using for development with Left over Hemi's in them as well as Hurricanes in them.
It's a good looking 2 door. Body in white ? 
Don't need no damn batteries!

STAGE 2
Already excited for 3 - 4 - 5 and 6 maybe 7
Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack Stage 2 Poised to Become Formidable Competitor - DodgeForum.com
The setup should result in a 0-60 time of around 3.3 seconds, coupled with an estimated quarter-mile time of 11.5 seconds – impressive numbers, indeed.

Yes, but with more drag strips banning electric cars, where will it run?

Ok Mexico was my funny street racing answer.
Not having a track and maybe just getting older means I probably won't care about getting the quickest stage of that car. For a couple of years I had a 2019 Scat Pack Challenger and in my little town I felt like I spent most of my time restraining myself and it was less fun than a 2018 V6 Camaro that I had because of that.
Don't get me wrong, there were moments where it was wayyyyy more fun too. But either way because of that if I do get a new Charger I'll just get the turbo 6 and call it done.
Also no one point out what a hypocrite I am if down the road in another thread you see me put in a motor with about the same power as a scat pack in my Coronet which doesn't have the benefit of bigger tires and traction control, I always said this hobby is where I throw logic out the window.
