2018 looks to be an exciting year for Dodge, as it prepares to wow car enthusiasts with upgraded versions of popular models. So if you are looking to buy a new car, you have picked a great time to do so.
Here are some sought-after vehicles from Dodge – take a look:
Challenger
This car is suitable for drag-racing and cruising at awesome speeds. Powertrains include the standard 305-hp 3.6-liter V-6 and an eight-speed automatic; one 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 makes 375 hp with the standard six-speed manual, and one (with fuel-saving tech) makes 372 hp with the optional eight-speed auto. If you choose the Scat Pack, you get a 485-hp 6.4-liter Hemi V-8; a six-speed manual is standard and an eight-speed auto is optional.
Grand Caravan
If you prefer a hassle-free and neat designed family car, the Grand Caravan is undoubtedly the best bet. A 283-hp 3.6-liter V-6 powers the front wheels through a six-speed automatic. The cabin can comfortably seat seven, and incorporates has Chrysler’s clever Stow ’n Go folding second row of seats. Steering is well-weighted for smooth maneuvering.
Challenger SRT / SRT Hellcat
When it comes to muscle-car metal and amazing engine power, it truly doesn’t get better than the Challenger SRT. The 6.4-liter Hemi V-8 makes 485 hp and 475 lb-ft; choose either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic. The rightly named Hellcat comes with a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 good for 707 hp and 650 lb-ft, with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic. It is best to opt for the automatic as it goes from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds.
Charger
Style and substance is what you can expect from this muscle car, which is a great choice for your family as well. The sport-tuned suspension and accurate steering make it extremely agile, even if the vehicle is quite large. A 292-hp 3.6-liter V-6 (300 hp with a Rallye Group package), an eight-speed automatic, and rear-wheel drive are standard; all-wheel drive is optional. A couple of brawnier rear-drive Hemi V-8s are also available—a 370-hp 5.7-liter or a 485-hp 6.4-liter.
Challenger SRT Demon
Yes, the Demon is absolutely a demon when it comes to drag-racing. Standard versions have a supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 that cranks out 808 hp, but it can be increased up to 840 hp if you purchase the Demon Crate Package. It is touted to be able to travel a quarter-mile in 9.65 seconds at 140 mph. This is a rare model, and only 3000 units will be available in the US.
Always study the features of any car before buying, so you can determine if it meets your requirements.
