What are the Configurable Drive Modes?
Five distinct drive modes include Auto, Eco, Wet/Snow, Sport and Custom
Eco Mode
For maximum efficiency, Eco Mode prioritizes fuel economy by biasing torque delivery to the rear wheels and engaging AWD only when necessary. The transmission delivers softer, slower shifts and upshifts earlier to keep torque low and RPMs down. Steering effort is reduced for a relaxed feel, and the active exhaust valves remain closed for quiet operation
Wet/Snow Mode
For low-grip surfaces, Wet/Snow Mode optimizes traction by locking the torque split to a balanced 50/50 front-to-rear distribution. Shift schedules remain soft and early to limit torque buildup, while reduced steering effort improves control in slippery conditions. Exhaust valves stay closed for quieter, more composed operation
Sport Mode
For performance driving, Sport Mode sharpens reflexes with a performance-tuned torque split and more aggressive shift patterns. The transmission delivers quick, firm gear changes, and steering feedback is increased for more direct control. The active exhaust valves open fully, unleashing the full sound signature of the SIXPACK engine
Custom Mode
Provides drivers the freedom to configure their Charger exactly the way they want it. From propulsion characteristics and paddle shifter behavior to traction settings and steering weight, nearly every aspect of performance can be tailored to individual preference
