2026 Corvette Zora Pickup Revealed: The performance truck world just got shaken up because Dodge has done the unthinkable they’ve turned the legendary Charger nameplate into a full-blown performance pickup. That’s right, the 2026 Dodge Charger TRX Pickup is real, and it’s every bit as wild as the rumors promised. This isn’t just another truck; it’s Dodge’s way of proving that raw horsepower and practicality can live under the same hood.
Think of it as a muscle car with a cargo bed, aimed at drivers who want brutal acceleration Monday to Friday and dirt-kicking fun on weekends.
First Look: A Truck That Looks Ready to Attack the Road
Take one look at the Charger TRX Pickup and you know it means business. The design screams aggression:
- A wide, squared stance
- Flared fenders
- Ram-inspired grille with massive air scoops
- LED daytime fangs straight from the Charger Hellcat
- Bulging hood vents that look ready to swallow fresh air by the ton
The pickup bed is 5.2 feet long, perfect for tools, camping gear, weekend bikes, or whatever road trip adventure you throw at it. At the rear, quad exhausts and a wide tailgate spoiler make it look like a track car wearing hiking boots.
Dodge hasn’t confirmed curb weight, but insiders hint around 4,000–4,100 lbs, surprisingly light for something so powerful. Expect aluminum and carbon fiber to play a big role in keeping it tight and mean.
Engine & Power Hellcat Blood, Electrified Muscle
If you expected something quiet or sensible, think again. Dodge is packing the new TRX Pickup with a supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8, boosted with a performance hybrid system that adds instant electric torque to the front axle.
Here’s what early estimates look like:
- Gas engine power: 755+ hp
- Electric boost: 160 hp
- Total output: Around 915–925 horsepower
- Torque: Over 850 lb-ft combined
- Drivetrain: Performance AWD with e-launch assist
- 0–60 mph: 2.8 seconds (yes, a pickup!)
- Top speed: 196 mph+
The electric motor also allows silent EV mode up to 8 miles, perfect for late-night neighborhoods when you don’t want to wake up the entire county.
Mileage figures are surprisingly respectable:
- 18–21 mpg combined empty
- 14–16 mpg while towing
For a truck with supercar power, that’s nothing short of impressive.
Interior A Muscle Truck That Feels Like a Fighter Jet
The 2026 Charger TRX Pickup looks more like the inside of a stealth aircraft:
- 15.5-inch infotainment touchscreen
- 12-inch digital gauge cluster
- Head-up display projecting maps, speed, G-force, and engine temp
- Alcantara-wrapped seats with Dodge red stitching
- Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto
- Wi-Fi hotspot and voice command assistant
Even the drive modes feel futuristic:
- Eco Mode: Hybrid quiet cruising
- Sport: Tighter steering + quicker shifts
- TRX Mode: Deletes chill mode—full power unleashed
- Tow & Haul: For serious trailers and heavy cargo
The cabin is loaded with tech and luxury, but still loud, bold, and proudly Dodge.
Smart Tech That Thinks Like a Co-Driver
Dodge didn’t stop at horsepower—they wired the brain of this truck with smart tech:
- Adaptive suspension that stiffens automatically during hard launches
- Onboard sensors that weigh your cargo and adjust stance
- AI-derived shift patterns that learn how you drive
- Trailer alignment camera with active steering assist
- Remote phone control lock, start, location tracking, and fuel status
There’s even an upgraded Harman Kardon 15-speaker sound system, perfect for blasting Metallica or country roads playlists while tearing down the highway.
Real Pickup Capability
This isn’t just a fast toy—it works like a real truck:
- Towing capacity: Around 8,000 lbs
- Payload: 1,160 lbs
- Bed power outlets: 110V and 48V
- LED bed lighting
- Multi-stage tonneau cover
- Factory rock sliders and underbody armor
Whether you’re hauling construction gear or ATVs, it’s built to take the punishment.
Price & Showroom Arrival
Pricing won’t be mild either. Early estimates place it at:
- Base model: $118,000
- Widebody Black Edition: $131,500
- Track-spec Launch Edition: $146,000+
Dodge plans limited production runs, meaning collectors and performance freaks are already lining up.
