Report: Dodge could return to Cup Series in 2027
Oct. 30, 2009; Talladega, AL, USA; Detail view of the nose of the new 2010 car of tomorrow Dodge Challenger to be driven by NASCAR Nationwide Series driver Justin Allgaier at the Talladega Superspeedway. Mandatory Credit: Mark J. Rebilas-Imagn Images Dodge is finalizing a plan to return to the NASCAR Cup Series in 2027, The Athletic reported on Friday.
The manufacturer last competed in stock car racing's premier division in 2012, leaving only three manufacturers with Chevrolet, Ford and Toyota.
Dodge began competing in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series this season with Kaulig Racing running five full-time teams in Ram trucks.
Multiple industry sources told The Athletic that the Cup Series will not increase its current total of 36 charters, meaning a current team would have to change manufacturers to join the Dodge brand.
Kaulig Racing's two current entries in the 2026 Cup Series -- Ty Dillon in the No. 10 and A.J. Allmendinger in the No. 16 -- currently are driving Chevrolets.
