Dodge Charger 0-60 times

The sane sedan buyer needs a fuel-efficient engine but does not want a spacious interior and many sophisticated protection aids at the cost of too much energy. The rabid enthusiast needs a wide-body kit with ridiculously huge wheels and a top speed of more than 200 miles per hour, the most robust motor available in a sedan. The 2021 Dodge Charger is eligible for the two customers.

The Charger's six trim editions are so diversified that it's impossible to imagine they are all the identical models. The Charger's base trim has a V6 motor and all-wheel drive available. On the higher trim, there is a supercharged V8 engine with 797-horsepower (it is not a typo), sufficiently bold colors, and a graphics kit for satisfying the most extroverted buyers. There are multiple option sets and even more motor choices between these two extremes to configure this sedan to almost anybody's needs. See our ranking of experts to see if the strengths of the Charger outweigh its weakness.

It is a large and powerful vehicle that gets going in a hurry with one of the V8 motor's built-in. In only 4.6 seconds, our test Scat Pack car covered 0-60 mph. The braking efficiency is outstanding. The pedal reaction at first feels a little sluggish in the city, but short stopping distances encourage confidence. A simulated-panic stop from 60 mph took just 102 feet during the test track.

The Charger appears remarkably flat through high-speed corners. Unfortunately, since you don't feel attached to your vehicle, it is not an engaging experience. The specific, mid-corner bumps may decrease stability and create a significant amount of rear movement. Another problem is the excessively responsive gas pedal. Flex the big toe and the Charger's bolts off the line. The only answer is to be super tender.

The 2021 Dodge Charger is offered in six trim editions: SXT, GT, R/T, Scat Pack, SRT Hellcat, and SRT Hellcat Redeye. All models are equipped with an eight-speed automatic transmission. Rear-wheel drive is a regular feature, and for the SXT and GT trims, you can choose all-wheel drive.

The Charger offers five accessible motors.

The SXT and GT trims are fitted with a 3.6-liter V6 (292 horsepower and 260 lb-ft, or 300 hp and 264 lb-ft for the rear-wheel-drive GT and all-wheel-drive SXT and GT)
The R/T has a 5.7-liter V8 (370 hp, 395 lb-ft)
The Scat Pack is equipped with a 6.4-liter V8, also known as the 392 (485 hp, 475 lb-ft)
The SRT Hellcat introduces a supercharged 6.2-liter supercharged V8 engine (717 hp, 650 lb-ft)
The top of line SRT Hellcat Redeye uses the strongest supercharged 6.2-liter V8 (797 hp, 707 lb-ft).

The base SXT trim edition comes with such features as 17-inch wheels, entry and ignition without a key, a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment display, connection to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, climate control with two-zones, steering wheel wrapped in leather, power-adjustable front seats, remote start, and cruise control.

The GT trim offers a sportier look and contains LED foglights, outside mirrors with heating, sport suspension, functional hood scoop, 20-inch wheels, 8.4-inch infotainment touchscreen, and an advanced stereo system.

The R/T has the GT trim edition look and includes V8 power - active exhaust and unique 20-inch wheels.
The Scat Pack model upgrades the power and productivity by using 20-inch wheels of exclusive design, limited-slip differential, brakes of high performance, more aggressive sport seats, steering wheel and front seats with heating, high-performance suspension, control of launch, performance drive modes.

The SRT Hellcat and Redeye trims offer more performance and luxury. They come with flared fenders, exclusive 20-inch wheels, brakes of ultra high performance, adaptive suspension, aggressive bodywork, seats with ventilation, second-row seats with heating function, memory settings of driver's seat, leather-trimmed cabin, power-adjustable steering wheel, and tires of high performance.

The different additional kits (known as groups) can be added to all trim editions and can contain options of technology, luxury, styling, and performance - Plus Group, Daytona Edition Group, Technology Group, Blacktop Kit, Performance Handling Group, Driver Convenience Group,
Navigation and Travel Group.

A V8 engine is a perfect way to appreciate the Charger experience. But we agree that the 6.4 liter in the Scat Pack trim provides the best bang for your buck and opens up for the willing wide-body treatment. To that, we will install the Navigation and Travel kit and the Driver Confidence kit. We will also opt for the Widebody kit because it looks so cool.
