Chronology
Predecessor Dodge Diplomat (indirect)
Dodge Intrepid

The Dodge Charger is a full-size four-door sedan, introduced first at the 2005 North American International Auto Show and built by American automobile manufacturer Stellantis North America, a subsidiary of Stellantis. It is available in rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive drivetrains. The Charger was developed to continue the Dodge Charger line with its muscle car heritage, and replaced the Dodge Intrepid as Dodge's full-size sedan.[2] The sixth-generation Charger debuted for the 2011 model year.

History [edit]

The first Charger was a 1964 show car based on the Dodge Polara and fitted with a 426 Wedge V8 engine. The first production Charger, based on the Dodge Coronet, was introduced as a 1966 model. There were several different vehicles bearing the Charger nameplate built on three different platforms and sizes, all bearing the Charger nameplate. Although the name is associated with the late-1960s performance model in the Dodge range, it was also used on personal luxury coupes during the late-1970s and on front-wheel-drive subcompact hatchbacks during the 1980s.

In 1999, Dodge introduced a new Charger R/T concept car. It took many styling cues from the 1960s Chargers, sharing their long nose and rearward cab, but was shorter at 187 in (4,750 mm), compared to 203 in (5,156 mm) for the 1966 Charger. It was also 650 lb (295 kg) lighter. It featured a four-door sedan body design, whereas all the previous production Chargers had two doors.[3]

It was a return to a rear-wheel-drive sedan platform Dodge had not offered since the mid-size Dodge Diplomat had been discontinued in 1989.

The Dodge Charger is based on the rear-wheel drive Chrysler LX platform with varying components derived from the Mercedes-Benz E-Class and S-Class of the era. Shared and or derived components from Mercedes-Benz included: the rear suspension cradle and 5-link independent rear suspension design derived from E-Class, the 5-Speed NAG1 (W5A580/WA580) transmission, rear differential, driveshaft, ESP & ABS systems, steering system, cabin electronics, switch gear such as the cruise control and turn signal combination stalk, seat controls, seat frames, wiring harness, and a double wish-bone front suspension design derived from the W220 S-Class. Later models also features a Mercedes-Benz derived laser key ignition system in place of the traditional metal key. AWD models also benefited from use of Mercedes-Benz's 4MATIC system, including transfer case components.

Both the SXT and R/T models of the were available in rear and all-wheel drive trains starting in 2007. The AWD system is engaged all the time, routing approximately 60% of the power to the rear wheels and 40% of the power to the front wheels.

After three years of production, an update for 2009 models was made. This sixth generation included relocating the rear decklid's "CHARGER" badging from the left to the right, making way for "DODGE" at the left. Tail lamps were also revised. 2008 models had seen minor revisions to the interior (a new center console and switchgear changes). The 2009 Charger AWD utilized the BorgWarner Torque-on-Demand system which disconnects the front axles until extra traction is needed. This results in a slight boost in fuel economy while retaining the same maximum power split to the front wheels.

Engines [edit]

5.7 L Hemi

6.1 L Hemi

The Charger SE and SXT are equipped with the 3.5L High Output engine, rated at 250 hp (186 kW) and 250 lb⋅ft (339 N⋅m) of torque. In Canada, the base model Charger has a 2.7 L V6, which is rated at 178 hp (133 kW) and 190 lb⋅ft (258 N⋅m) of torque. In 2006, the 2.7 L V6 was also available in the U.S. for fleet sales only. For 2007, the SE package could be had with the 2.7 L engine. The Canadian SXT model included the 3.5 L V6.

The R/T version uses the 5.7 L Hemi V8 engine. From 2006 to 2008, this engine was rated at 340 hp (254 kW) and 390 lb⋅ft (529 N⋅m) of torque. For 2009, Variable Camshaft Timing was added, raising power output levels to 368 hp (274 kW) and 395 lb⋅ft (536 N⋅m) of torque respectively.

The SRT8 model comes with the 6.1 L (370 cu in) Hemi V8, which is rated at 425 hp (317 kW) and 420 lb⋅ft (569 N⋅m) of torque.[6]

Daytona R/T [edit]

Dodge Charger Daytona R/T

The 2006 Charger Daytona R/T debuted at the Chicago Auto Show. It featured a high output 350 hp (261 kW) version of the 5.7 L (345 cu in) Hemi as well as an updated suspension and tires. Visual additions included a special front fascia with a chin spoiler and a black rear spoiler. In a retro touch, the Daytona R/T featured black "Hemi" decals on the hood and rear fender and retro high impact colors.

The 2006 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona Limited colors were "go man go!" (orange with black decals and spoiler (punctuation in the name is correct, as displayed on the dashboard), "top banana" (yellow with black decals and spoiler)), "tor red" (red with black decals and spoiler (punctuation in the name is correct, as displayed on the dashboard)). The U.S. production release was limited to 4,000 cars each for orange and yellow, 2,000 for the red, and they had a badge with a production number placed under the far-right dash vent.[7]

In 2007, larger 20-inch chrome-clad wheels were introduced along with two new colors, Sub Lime Green and Plum Crazy Purple.[8] In 2008, a revised stripe package was adopted. In 2009, horsepower was increased to 372 hp (277 kW) by the addition of Variable Camshaft Timing.

SRT-8 [edit]

An SRT8 version of the Charger debuted at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. Powered by a 425 hp (431 PS; 317 kW) version of the 6.1 L (370 cu in) Hemi V8, it also featured upgraded Brembo brakes, and interior and exterior updates. The engine is rated at 420 lb⋅ft (569 N⋅m) of torque at 4,800 rpm. The 425 SAE net horsepower of the modern 6.7 L Hemi makes it more powerful than the Chrysler Hemi engines of the muscle car era, the biggest of which were rated at 425 SAE gross horsepower. This made the 6.7 L Hemi the most powerful V8 engine that Chrysler had put in a production vehicle at the time. The SRT8 can accelerate from 0–60 mph (0–97 km/h) in 4.8 seconds (5.0 average).[9]

A new Super Bee version of the Charger debuted at the 2006 New York International Auto Show for the 2007 model year. It shared the SRT-8's 425 hp (317 kW) 6.1 L (370 cu in) Hemi engine, but was available in a special "Detonator Yellow" paint with black decals. It was a limited edition with only 1,000 being produced. A B5 Blue version of the Super Bee was shown at the 2007 North American International Auto Show and went on sale in early 2008, also with a limited run of 1,000. A total of 425 Hemi Orange Super Bees were built in 2009.[10]

DUB Edition [edit]

It features a body-color spoiler and fog lamps, 20-inch alloy wheels with 245/45R20 tires, MyGIG Multimedia Infotainment System with 13-speaker Puncher surround-sound system, a 322w Kicker amplifier, a 100-watt Kicker subwoofer, and upgraded brakes from the R/T models that use dual-piston calipers in the front. Exterior colors are red, black, silver, cool vanilla, and dark titanium.[11]

A total of 2,180 Charger DUB Edition cars were produced for the U.S. market.[12]

Safety [edit]

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gives the Charger an overall Good score in frontal crash tests.[13] In side impacts Charger models equipped with optional side airbags are given a Marginal score overall, and models without side airbags are given the lowest overall Poor score.[14] [15]

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gives the Charger five stars on passenger, driver, and rear passenger crash test ratings and four stars in regard to side-impact rating.

All models come standard with electronic stability program (ESP) (except in 2.7L V6 cars where it is optional) with ABS and all speed traction control.

NASCAR [edit]

NASCAR Sprint Cup's newest Dodge car design "The COT" (Car of Tomorrow), driven by Kasey Kahne

Racecars based on the Charger were campaigned by several NASCAR Sprint Cup teams starting in 2005 through to 2012. Although NASCAR stock cars bear only a slight resemblance to actual street cars, Dodge's 2005 and 2006 NASCAR entries were based on the Charger silhouette, replacing the previous Dodge Intrepid. Unlike the Intrepid, the Charger shares the rear-wheel-drive with the V8 engine configuration with its NASCAR counterparts.

During the 2007 NASCAR season, the Charger was used in all non Car of Tomorrow races while the Dodge Avenger was used in all Car of Tomorrow races. The Car of Tomorrow was used exclusively in 2008. However, the Avenger Car of Tomorrow was redesignated as a Charger R/T through the use of different decals. The decals have been revised again for 2011–2012 to reflect the updated nose and tail styling of the production Charger, including the full-width taillight panel.

Though the car was successful in Sprint Cup competition, fewer teams were running Dodges from 2007 and on. This would lead Dodge and Ram to abandon its NASCAR (Sprint, Nationwide, and Camping World Truck-series) factory support efforts at the end of the 2012 season. For the 2012 NASCAR season, Penske Racing was the only full-time team campaigning Dodges (the #2 and #22 Chargers) in the Sprint Cup, and their #2 Miller Lite Dodge (driven by Brad Keselowski) won the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship. Despite winning the Sprint Cup and producing the new 2013 version of the NASCAR Charger, Penske Racing switched to Ford for the 2013 season, ending Dodge's second tenure in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.[ citation needed ]

The 2011 LD Charger seventh generation underwent both exterior and interior changes, taking some styling cues from the 1968–1970 models.[21] A new body featured a redesigned fascia and hood section,[22] modified "racetrack" vintage-style taillights, and a new dashboard. Silver aluminum wheels became standard equipment replacing the previous plastic hubcaps.

Powertrain [edit]

The new 3.6 L Pentastar V6 engine replaced the 2.7 L V6 engine as well as the 3.5 L High Output V6 engine. The 3.6 L Pentastar has variable valve timing, which is a technology that adjusts the timing of the intake and/or exhaust valves. The engine uses a timing chain instead of a belt. The exhaust manifold is cast directly into the cylinder head.[23]

The Charger was built alongside the 2011 Challenger SRT8 392 and Chrysler 300C. Engines are available with both the 5-speed and 8-speed automatic transmissions.

2012 [edit]

From the 2012 model year, the 3.6 L engine was available with an 8-speed automatic that improved fuel economy by 4-mpg on the highway.

The 3.6 liter Pentastar V6 is rated at 292 hp (218 kW) and 260 lb⋅ft (353 N⋅m) of torque, the 5.7 L V8 has 370 hp (276 kW) and 395 lb⋅ft (536 N⋅m) of torque, and the new 6.4 liter V8 is rated at 470 hp (350 kW) and 470 lb⋅ft (640 N⋅m) of torque. According to the October 2011 issue of Motor Trend, the Dodge Charger SRT-8, weighing 4,361 lb (1,978 kg), accelerates from 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 4.3 seconds, and completes the quarter mile (~400 m) in 12.8 seconds at 110 mph (180 km/h). It is mechanically identical to the Chrysler 300 SRT-8.

Charger SRT8 [edit]

The Charger SRT8 returned as 2012 model, which was previewed at the 2011 Chicago Auto Show. Chrysler began putting the Dodge logo with slanted red rectangles on the grilles of the SRT8 halfway through the 2012 model year.

Charger Super Bee [edit]

In 2011, it was announced that the Super Bee will be returning as a 2012 model on the redesigned Dodge Charger with the 392 HEMI engine in "Stinger Yellow" and "Pitch Black" exterior colors.

Charger Mopar Designs Edition [edit]

Mopar 11 Dodge Charger grille emblem and stripe

In 2011 Dodge introduced the Dodge Charger R/T Mopar 11 Edition. In the Mopar Edition, there are several appearance and performance changes to set it apart from the rest of the production models that year. The Mopar edition came only in the "Pitch Black" exterior color with a Mopar blue driver side stripe and a Mopar grille badge instead of an "R/T" badge. The interior is finished in the same black as seen on the outside except for a splash of chrome and carbon fiber dash and center console, along with a pistol grip shifter. The Mopar blue stripe is carried to the interior as a part of the driver's front seat and the left side rear passenger seat. The performance of the Mopar edition Charger is improved with the Super Track Pack, a 3.91 final drive gear ratio, a three-mode traction control, heavy-duty brakes, larger stability bars, front and rear strut tower bars, as well as a sport-tuned steering rack.

Recalls [edit]

9,688 2011 and 2012 Dodge Charger police vehicles were recalled for overheated lighting harness connector causing low beams to fail, and an overheated power distribution center could result in a loss of the vehicle's anti-lock braking and stability control systems.[29]

On May 7, 2012, a recall announcement was made by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) regarding loss of anti-lock brakes and stability control as a result of an overheated fuse in the PDC. This failure could lead to loss of vehicle control, which increases crash risk. Over 127,350 Chrysler 300s and Dodge Chargers were recalled.[30]

2013 [edit]

2013 NASCAR Dodge Charger [edit]

Penske Racing built two Sprint Cup Series race cars based on the appearance of 2013 Dodge Charger, and the cars were unveiled in Las Vegas Motor Speedway.[31] [32] About the time the car was unveiled, Penske Racing, the sole Dodge team in Sprint Cup announced it was switching to Ford for the 2013 season. Although the new cars received positive reviews by the automotive press and in track testing, attempts by Dodge Motorsports to get other teams to switch to the new Charger for 2013 came to naught, and Dodge folded its NASCAR racing efforts in all series except the NASCAR Pinty's Series, which is dominated by Dodge cars.

Dodge Charger Juiced [edit]

Motorsport [edit]

The 2014 Dodge Charger Pursuit AWD recorded the fastest lap time during Michigan State Police's 2014 Vehicle Evaluation Test (1:33.85), and fastest average lap time (1:34.75) at the Grattan Raceway.[40]

Marketing [edit]

As part of the 2014 Dodge Charger launch in the US, Dodge Chargers appeared as hero vehicles driven by the main character Nolan (Grant Bowler) in a 2013 episode of US television series Defiance. The co-branded TV commercial, titled 'Dodge Charger | Defiance' debuted on May 20, 2013. The 30-second commercial shows the endurance of the Charger as it survives obstacles in a changing world, ending with a transformed planet Earth in the year 2046 where 'only the defiant survive.' In addition, the Dodge Defiance Arkfall Sweepstakes featured fans of Dodge and Defiance competing against each other, vying for the grand prize of a trip for two to the world's largest pop culture event taking place in California in summer 2013. Weekly prizes were awarded, including gaming systems, the "Defiance" video game, and Dodge brand merchandise.[46] [47]

2015 facelift [edit]

Unveiled at the 2014 New York International Auto Show, the 2015 Dodge Charger received a substantial makeover, the most noticeable change coming in the new front grille and rounded LED headlights. Retaining its Coke bottle styling Dodge claims to have reworked just about every panel on the car; made to look "leaner and more athletic" than its previous look while keeping the same dimensions.[48] Dodge is reported to have used the 1969 Charger as its inspiration for the remodeling.

The engines include the 370 hp (276 kW) 5.7 L Hemi V8 and the 292 hp (218 kW) 3.6 liter V6. The V6 model is EPA-rated at 31 mpg or 7.6L/100 km which is claimed by the manufacturer to be the best in its class. Except for the Police Pursuit version (which retains the 5 speed automatic), the only available transmission is the Chrysler eight-speed automatic, coupled with optional all-wheel drive. The all-wheel-drive system automatically removes power to the front axle when not required, giving an improvement in fuel economy. The new electronic gearshift with optional paddle shifters gives shift times of as little as 0.25 seconds in the sport mode.[35]

The reworked interior includes new materials for the door, console, and dash panels, a new steering wheel and seats, and a wide range of trim packages with both leather and cloth seating.[35] The refreshed interior also features a new instrument cluster featuring a 7-inch (180mm) TFT (Thin Film Transistor) display. The available 8.4-inch Uconnect touchscreen radio with available navigation has been revised, now including Uconnect Apps. Mechanically, the 3.6L Pentastar V6 and the 5.7L/6.4L HEMI engines remained the same. All engines are now backed by the ZF 8HP 8-Speed Automatic transmissions co-produced by ZF (previously only V6 models used the ZF 8-speed). There have been revisions to the chassis components, including Electric-Assist power steering, which replaces the previous models Electro-Hydraulic Assist power steering. New aluminum rear differentials now use 4-mounting bolts for rigidity. AWD is no longer available on 5.7L R/T models.

The 2015 Dodge Charger went on sale starting December 2014 in the US and Canada.

Charger SRT Hellcat [edit]

Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was introduced on August 13, 2014, prior to being shown at the Woodward Dream Cruise and was unveiled at the 2014 South Florida International Auto Show in November. Present for the ceremony were Sandra Bullock, Mizz Nina, Michelle Yeoh, and Fan Bingbing. It includes the same 707 hp (527 kW; 717 PS), 650 lb⋅ft (880 N⋅m), 6.2-liter supercharged Hemi V8 present in the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. The Charger Hellcat features a redesigned front fascia with a larger lower grille similar to the current generation Dodge Viper.

The Hellcat is claimed to be the fastest factory four-door sedan ever built.[49]

Combining into 60–130 is the Hellcat doing 6.1 seconds to the Aventador's 6.6 and the 675LT's 6.7 seconds.

Charger SRT 392 [edit]

The SRT 392 Hemi is equipped with a 6.4 liter V8 rated at 485 hp (362 kW; 492 PS) and 475 pound force-feet (644 N⋅m) of torque.[58] The Charger SRT 392 also comes with 20-inch forged aluminum wheels, 15.4-inch brake rotors out front, and 13.8-inch rear brake rotors.[59]

Charger R/T Scat Pack [edit]

The Charger R/T Scat Pack essentially takes the place of the former SRT8 Super Bee in the Charger lineup. The powertrain of the SRT 392 is present, as are the front and rear bumpers, but leather upholstery is optional (as opposed to standard), the suspension uses fixed-rate Bilstein shocks, the brakes are slightly smaller, and the wheel and tire package is narrower. The Scat pack shares its exterior look with the Charger Hellcat and features a narrow grille, a hood scoop, tinted headlamps, and 20-inch forged wheels.[60]

2020 [edit]

Charger Widebody [edit]

For 2020, a "Widebody Package" was made available for the Charger R/T Scat Pack as an option, but replacing the narrow-body Charger Hellcat.[61] The package mirrors that of the Challenger Widebody. The following are included:

  • Widebody fender flares
  • 20x11-inch Devils Rim forged aluminum wheels
  • 305/35ZR20 Pirelli 3-season performance tires
  • 3-mode Bilstein adaptive damping suspension uniquely tuned for competition use
  • 6-piston calipers with 15.4-inch vented and slotted rotors in the front (standard on Hellcat models)
  • Stiffened anti-roll bars sized 34mm in front and 22mm rear (standard on Hellcat models)
  • New electrically assisted steering system[62]
  • Features from the Challenger Demon including race cool down (Hellcat only), line lock and launch control/launch assist[63]

2021 [edit]

Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye [edit]

A heavily upgraded version of the Hellcat was introduced as the Hellcat Redeye for 2021. Like the Challenger Redeye, it is equipped with a supercharged 6.2L V8 rated at 797 hp (594 kW; 808 PS) and 707 lb⋅ft (959 N⋅m) of torque, an increase of 90 hp (67 kW) and 57 lb⋅ft (77 N⋅m) over the standard Hellcat motor. Other upgrades include reinforced ZF 8 speed automatic transmission, track-tuned suspension, torque reserve and 41-spline heavy-duty half-shafts, SRT power chiller, and after-run chiller. [64]

Police package/Charger Pursuit [edit]

In early 2006, DaimlerChrysler released a new police version of the Charger. It made its debut at the 2005 New York International Auto Show. Unlike the civilian version, the police version features upgraded heavy-duty brakes, a severe-duty cooling system, police-performance Electronic Stability Program, police performance-tuned steering, and a gear shifter that is mounted on the steering column instead of in the center console.

The Charger is in use with many American, Canadian, and Mexican police organizations.

The 370 hp (276 kW) Hemi V8 can accelerate the car from 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 6.0 seconds and to a top speed of 152 mph (245 km/h).[65] In Michigan State Police testing, the Charger V8 outperformed all other pursuit vehicles in acceleration, cornering, and braking (except the Dodge Magnum and V6 Charger, which stopped slightly faster in some tests) in the first five years since its introduction.[66]

The Charger is in use with numerous police agencies in North America as both a marked and an unmarked patrol car. Law enforcement agencies outside of the U.S. have also purchased the Charger, including police services in Canada, Mexico, Chile,[67] the Czech Republic,[68] and the Middle East, including Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates.[69] Both V6 and V8 models are used by the Police forces, with highway patrols favoring the 5.7 L (345 cu in) Hemi. The Charger is also in service with the U.S. federal government and in its military police services.

For 2009, the base Charger police car came with the 3.5L V6 and a 5-speed automatic transmission. The rear is slightly updated, moving the "CHARGER" badge to the right, and replacing the left with the badge reading "DODGE." The V8 version uses HEMI V8 engine shared with the Charger Daytona R/T, rated at 370 hp (276 kW) and 395 lb⋅ft (536 N⋅m) of torque.

When the Charger was redesigned for the 2011 model year, the police package version was renamed Dodge Charger Pursuit. Through mid-2014, there was a 3.6 RWD model, and a V8-RWD model.. In mid-2014, A V8-AWD model became optional, along with a BR9 brake package. In 2012, the Dodge Charger Pursuit replaced the Ford Crown Victoria as the #1 police sedan in North America following the latter's discontinuation. For the 2015 model year, the Dodge Charger Pursuit also received a facelift like its retail version. By 2017, the Charger Pursuit and Explorer Interceptor essentially shared the sales award, as sales of the ultra-high-performance AWD Charger rapidly increased. In 2020, in part because of limited A580 transmission availability, the entire factory allotment of Charger Pursuits sold out in only a few months' time. Only two models were available in 2020, the RWD 3.6L and the V8-AWD model.

For 2021, after a long production break on account of Covid-19, the Charger Pursuit resumed production in late 2020 with two models: a new V6-AWD (850RE transmission), and a V8-RWD (8HP70). Besides the adaptation of the 8-spd autos, Chrysler tamed down the hot rod Dodges a bit, by instituting electronically limited top speeds of 140 mph on both models, down about a dozen on the V8 cars. Agencies now have the ability to configure the cars downward from 140 mph to a speed of their choosing.

While some officers may feel the new limit is too slow, the only pursuit-rated vehicle currently on the market that exceeds 140 mph is the turbo Ford Explorer. Bid pricing of the Ford is much higher than ether Charger.

Chrysler will continue to produce the LD Charger/Chrysler 300 and the LA Challenger through 2023 at Brampton Assembly, with all-new replacements expected in 2024. These cars are expected to have new powerplants, including hybrid models, and electrics. Dodge is promising performance that exceeds that of today's cars. Fleet managers will continue to have pursuit-rated sedan from Stellantis.

Production [edit]

The Dodge Charger is assembled at the Brampton plant in Brampton, Ontario, Canada. The Charger shared the LX platform with the Chrysler 300, the newer fourth generation Dodge Challenger, and the discontinued Dodge Magnum.
