WINDSOR SHUTDOWN MAY STALL DODGE CHARGER SIXPACK LAUNCH

EV Channels Review

The video discusses potential delays for the 2026 Dodge Charger SIXPACK launch due to a shutdown at the Windsor Assembly Plant. The shutdown, initially planned for two weeks, could be extended due to supply chain issues and ongoing trade tariff negotiations, particularly impacting the plant which also produces Chrysler minivans. The reviewer clarifies that recent leaked images do not show Hemi-powered Chargers being built, but rather Charger Daytonas. The article highlights the poor sales performance and rapid depreciation of the current Charger Daytona EV and ICE models, with dealers struggling to sell inventory and offering significant discounts and lease deals. This situation is contrasted with the strong sales of Chrysler minivans. The launch of the SIXPACK model, originally slated for early 2025 and then pushed to May or June 2025, is now uncertain due to the plant's operational status and the broader trade and political climate in Canada. The reviewer suggests that future Charger EVs, including the four-door model, may be built exclusively on order due to low demand and high pricing.
