If you’ve always loved the aggressive looks of the Dodge Charger, you’ll be happy to note that last year’s style changes injected even more testosterone into this beast. While the base models are powered by a 3.6L V6, the more athletic versions feature 5.7L and 6.4L V8s. AWD is now an option on all, whereas last year it was limited to the V8 versions.
