R/T Badge Demystified: Dodge Charger's Road-to-Track Legacy

The R/T badge signifies Road and Track, signaling performance; on the 2026 Charger it marks the base trim with AWD and a 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-six delivering 420 hp and 468 lb-ft, 0–60 in 4.6 seconds, starting at about $49,995 (plus destination). Dodge confirms a V8 Hellcat is coming in 2027, but there’s no V8 for the current R/T, while the R/T Plus adds sport suspension and premium interior features. The R/T lineage goes back to 1968, with notable on-screen appearances and a history of performance heritage.

"Stellantis Recalls 300K+ Vehicles for Airbag Safety Concerns"

Chrysler is recalling nearly 300,000 vehicles, including 2018 to 2021 Dodge Chargers and Chrysler 300 Models, due to potential airbag issues that could cause the inflators for both the right and left side curtain air bags to "rupture," posing a risk of occupants being hit with sharp metal fragments if the airbags were to deploy. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced the recall, and dealerships will replace the airbags for free. If you have questions about the recall or any other potential safety issues, you're asked to call Chrysler's customer service line.

Stellantis is recalling nearly 285,000 Dodge Charger and Chrysler 300 sedans in the US due to potential side curtain airbag inflator issues, which could lead to metal shrapnel being released into the cabin. Moisture inside the inflators may cause internal corrosion and cracks, prompting the recall. Owners will be notified to have the side airbags replaced at no charge, and Stellantis will reimburse those who have already had them replaced. The company is not aware of any accidents or injuries resulting from these issues.

"Alfa Romeo's Electrifying Future: From Giulia to Stelvio EV"

The 2026 Alfa Romeo Giulia will be built on the same STLA Large modular platform as the Dodge Charger Daytona EV, but it won't simply be a rebadged Charger. Alfa Romeo's CEO promises that the new Giulia will have a unique and incredible design, and the platform's flexibility will allow for changes in dimensions. The new Giulia and Stelvio crossover will offer both gas and electric powertrain options, including hybrid versions, similar to the Dodge Charger, but it's unclear if they will share engines.
