Dodge Challenger Cars
The Dodge Challenger is a true American muscle car that packs an impressive punch under the hood. The Challenger comes in various trims, each with its unique features, and it's perfect for driving enthusiasts looking for power and performance.
The entry-level SXT model is equipped with a 3.6-liter V6 engine, generating 305 horsepower. However, the R/T and Scat Pack models are what really turn heads in the UK automotive market. These models are fitted with massive V8 engines capable of producing up to 485 and 485 horsepower respectively.
If that’s not enough power for you, there is also a range-topping SRT Hellcat model with an astonishing 717 horsepower thanks to its supercharged V8 engine. It's important to note that UK drivers may struggle to get full use of all this power as they face some of the world’s strictest speed limits.
The Challenger is rear-wheel drive which means it delivers impressive handling performance and balance when driving through corners at high speeds or changing direction suddenly on twisting roads like those found in Scotland.
Interior quality in the Challenger is excellent, as are tech features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. However, taller drivers may find their headroom compromised by the car's low-slung roofline design which may make longer journeys uncomfortable.
Safety technology in the base-model Challenger SXT is good, with front-collision warning systems available from mid-level trims onwards, and adaptive cruise control included only in top-trim versions which can be extremely helpful when navigating London's bustling traffic conditions.
Overall the Dodge Challenger packs some serious horsepower but isn't recommended for everyone due to its poor fuel efficiency. Drivers willing to overlook its thirst for petrol will be rewarded with an incredible muscle car that performs well on UK roads while giving them that true Americana feeling wherever they go!
