Dodge Charger

Posted by: nayie In: Sports Car

The Dodge Charger debuted in the mid 1960s as a response to America’s growing interest in average cars with above-average performance. This two-door coupe boasted aggressive fastback styling and big V8 power (including Chrysler’s famed 426 Hemi). As with similar vehicles of this time period, however, the Charger’s glory quickly faded after 1970 due to rising insurance and gas prices, higher emissions standards and changing consumer tastes.

The 2006-2009 Dodge Charger is based on the LX (Chrysler 300 and Dodge Magnum) platform. Headlights are rather large with dark surrounds to give a, “smoked out” aftermarket look. We were pleasantly surprised by Charger Hemi 0-60 times of 6.0 seconds (Chrysler estimate). The Dodge Charger SRT8, with its 425 horsepower (420 lb-ft) 6.1 liter Hemi, does 0-60 in five seconds, 0-100-0 mph in the mid-16s, and 60-0 braking in about 110 feet.

It uses specially tuned dampers, spring rates, bushings, and anti-sway bars, a half-inch lower ride height, a retuned electronic stability program, and special 20 inch wheels with Goodyear Supercar F1 three-season tires (245/45/20 in the front, and 255/45/20 in the rear). The Charger SRT8 also has Brembo calipers and vented rotors (360 x 32mm discs up front, with 350 x 26mm in the rear).

Less popular were three successive generations of Chargers. Third- and fourth-generation models from the 1970s were emasculated by new emissions regulations. A fifth generation, made available from 1982-’87, was a variation of the front-drive Dodge Omni 024 economy hatchback. Near the end of its production, there were sporty, turbocharged versions modified by Carroll Shelby that culminated in the Shelby Charger GLH-S.
