Two sneering eyes and a bold crosshair grille announce your arrival. A long, wide hood (with functional scoop on SRT8 models), strong pronounced shoulders, and sloping fastback roofline pay respect to the classic lines of muscle car legends. And out back, sculpted window pillars lead to a short rear decklid and sheared-off cam tail for superior aerodynamics and a race car-like profile.
Charger's four-door coupe-inspired design injects a modern dose of real-world versatility into an aggressive, sports car profile. The proportions are classic rear-wheel drive: a long 120-inch wheelbase for more interior legroom, wide 63-inch track for more elbow room, and tall 58.2-inch profile for more headroom. The rear 60/40 split rear seatback folds flat to provide unhindered access from the enormous trunk to over 120 cubic feet of interior space.
The 3.5-liter high-output V6 engine, standard on Charger SE and SXT models, delivers the perfect balance of performance and economy. This compact powerhouse kicks out 250 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque thanks to a host of performance features, including a precision aluminum block with cast-in iron liners, cross-bolted main bearing caps, and cast aluminum heads.
The famed 5.7-liter HEMI V8 engine with Multiple Displacement System (MDS) on Charger R/T and Daytona R/T delivers the goods, featuring a deep-skirt cast-iron block with cross-bolted main bearing caps and aluminum alloy heads with legendary hemispherical combustion chambers.
Behold our most powerful engine ever: the big-bore SRT-engineered 6.1-liter HEMI V8. A mix of modern technology and good old-fashioned hot rod engineering enables this beast to churn out a fearsome 425 horsepower and 420 lb-ft of torque. That's more power per liter than the legendary 426 Street HEMI that reigned supreme in the 1960s and 1970s.
The engine revs, the tires turn, and everything outside becomes a blur. It's all about speed: the rate of distance over time. When it comes to driving a Charger, you'll cover a lot of distance over a short time. Charger's sleek, fastback design is shaped to slip through the air with minimal resistance, while spoilers on the front fascia and rear decklid (Daytona R/T and SRT8) create additional downforce for increased traction and stability at speed. |
