The 2019 Dodge Charger is the apex of four-door muscle cars. In addition to its sought-after pony car style, it also has enough performance features to make every trip you take an exciting opportunity to test your limits. Here’s a closer look at the performance features you’ll find on the 2019 Dodge Charger:
Start Your Engines
The 2019 Dodge Charger‘s engines let you choose the best level of power for your driving style. The lineup starts with a 292-horsepower 3.6-liter V-6 that comes standard on the base-level SXT model. The GT uses the same engine, but gets 300 horsepower and 264 pound-feet of torque, due to the all-wheel-drive system. 
Next up is the V-8 powerhouses. The R/T trim is equipped with a 370-horsepower 5.7-liter V-8 that produces 395 pound-feet of torque. On the Scat Pack, you’ll get a 6.4-liter V-8 that packs a white-knuckled 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque.
If you’re looking for a wild amount of power that’ll put your name on the racing track leaderboard, you’ll want the end-of-the-line Charger SRT Hellcat. Its supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V-8 engine delivers a rubber-melting, best-in-class 707 horsepower and 650 pound-feet of torque.
All-Wheel Drive Confidence
If you’re worried about the practicality of a pony car when the weather gets bad, fret not. The Charger comes with an all-wheel-drive system option that gives you the confidence you need to take on wet or snowy roads without losing the car’s powerful performance.
Drive Modes
The 2019 Charger has available drive modes that let you communicate with your system on how best to tackle the road ahead. There are three modes: Sport, Comfort, and Normal. If you get a Charger equipped with the Launch and Traction control features, nothing feels quite as good as switching your drive mode to Sport and letting your engine’s full power loose.
Brembo Brakes
When you reach the Scat Pack trim level, your braking system will be upgraded with performance-minded Brembo brakes. You have the option of a four-piston brake system or a six-piston system. The first comes in red or black, and the second adds gunmetal and orange to that list to give your Charger a style boost. When you’re testing the limits of your Charger, these top-performing brakes give you ultimate control over your vehicle.
Enhanced Suspension
When you move up the trims to the GT and R/T, you’ll see an enhanced suspension system that smooths out your roughest rides. It adds Bilstein shock absorbers, lowers your Charger’s height by half an inch, and improves your performance in general. If you want an even better system, opt for the High-Performance Suspension upgrade and the Performance Handling Package to take your ride to the next level.
Paddle Shifters
To give your Charger the feel of a manual transmission, opt for the available steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. They let you shift gears like a manual, even with the Charger’s eight-speed automatic transmission.
