2026 Dodge Charger Sixpack Scat Pack: Putting Agility to the Test4.0/5

Knoxville, Tennessee —Since its introduction into the electric arena, the Dodge Charger Daytona hasn’t exactly met expectations. Some will argue that the battery-powered American muscle car targets a more upscale audience, on top of being less practical than an SUV. However, there’s another explanation for those disappointing sales, and it …November 14, 2025

2024 Dodge Charger Daytona: The Fantastic Answer to Soulless EVs4.5/5

Where to start? There's so much to say about this new American sports car. One thing's for sure: the brand new Charger Daytona arrives at the right time for the Dodge brand—even as a belated 2024 model with just a few days left until 2025. Could you imagine a lineup …December 12, 2024

2023 Dodge Hornet : New Blood, But at What Price?3.5/5

The Dodge lineup basically consists of three models: the Charger sedan, the Challenger coupe and the Durango SUV. That's a bit thin, admittedly. What's worse, at the end of 2023, two iconic models will be retired (the Charger and Challenger), while we'll be saying goodbye to the V8 Hellcat engine …March 22, 2023

2020 Dodge Charger Hellcat Widebody: The Survivor4.0/5

SONOMA, California— SRT (Street and Racing Technology) is to FCA (Fiat Chrysler Automobiles) what AMG is to Mercedes-Benz or M to BMW.

They have the brains, the skills, the tools and the financial resources …October 10, 2019

2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody: Full Blast on the Track3.5/5

PORTLAND, Maine – The supercharger whines happily as the 6.2-litre HEMI V8 roars all the way to its 6500-rpm redline on the straightaway next to the paddock area at Club Motorsports. The highly mechanical sound of the juiced-up engine immediately brings to mind the famous American saying: “There is no …August 10, 2018

2018 Dodge Durango SRT: The Hellcat's Burly Cousin4.0/5

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – For Tim Kuniskis, head of the Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat and SRT brands for the Italian-American manufacturer FCA, it couldn’t be simpler. For him, the Dodge Durango is nothing more and nothing less than “a Charger with three rows of seats.” This brawny SUV is designed to stand …August 2, 2017

2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Widebody: the Next Logical Step4.0/5

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – Three years ago, Dodge and its SRT performance division tapped into a massive market by launching the first Hellcat versions of the Challenger coupe and Charger sedan. Those who doubted the viability and safety of these big American cars with 707-horsepower turbocharged V8 engines were shocked at …July 27, 2017

2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon: Hell Hath No Fury5.0/5

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana – An entire book could be written about the new Challenger SRT Demon and its bold personality, singular design and untold secrets.

2017 Dodge Challenger GT: More At-traction!4.0/5

PORTLAND, Maine – I reckon some may be tired of reading it in my stories, but I’ve been a diehard fan of AWD for decades. I’ve always advocated and recommended its purchase as an element of safety, exactly like stability control. Unlike the latter, AWD was never made mandatory on …January 28, 2017

First Drive: 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat

I felt like a scene from ‘The Matrix’ was playing out in my head as I stepped out the front door. The Morpheus side of my brain was offering the Neo side a choice, only instead of a blue pill or a red pill it was a black key or …September 29, 2015

2015 Dodge Challenger Hellcat - It’s All About The Horsepower4.5/5

Flexing muscles is a top priority when you’re in the muscle car business, but instead of measuring muscle mass, it’s the horsepower numbers that dictate who’s got the biggest biceps. Chevy ruffled a few feathers when it introduced the Camaro ZL1 with 580 horsepower, and it wasn’t long before Ford …July 23, 2014

2014 Dodge Durango: Combining Family and Sportiness4.0/5

In its the glory days, the Durango had a pick-up truck chassis and was considered an out-and-out full-size SUV. Back then, we also had the Aspen – Chrysler’s version of the same vehicle – which was even sold in a hybrid version. If you find one of those relics, bring …October 9, 2013

2013 Dodge Dart: The future with a pinch of the past4.0/5

Anyone with even a passing interest in cars has heard of the Dart, sold between 1960 and 1976 in various incarnations. The 2013 Dart is Chrysler’s first child from its current marriage (the previous marriage, with Daimler, ended in divorce) to Fiat. This new vehicle replaces the controversial Caliber, which …May 17, 2012
