If you are a fan of performance, the Dodge Charger revives a classic name, filled with emotion. And performance is what the current generation offers! Sure, the 2.7-litre V6 engine is certainly not the liveliest, but the 3.5-litre engine seems to be the one that is better adapted for everyday. Also available is 5.7 and 6.1-litre V8 Hemi engines. This one powers the SRT-8, an extremely high performance model.
