1999 Dodge Viper GTS: Less Venomous Than Anticipated

As some of you may know, The Car Guide all started with a French-written annual book, Le Guide de l’auto , nearly 60 years ago. The latter proved an instant hit and eventually became the most trusted source of information for car enthusiasts in Quebec. The book’s grand master, Jacques …September 24, 2025

1969 Dodge Charger Daytona: From the Track to the Road

As some of you may know, The Car Guide all started with a French-written annual book, Le Guide de l’auto , nearly 60 years ago. The latter proved an instant hit and eventually became the most trusted source of information for car enthusiasts in Quebec. The book’s grand master, Jacques …September 19, 2025

2024 Dodge Hornet PHEV: Is the Potential Worth the Trouble?3.5/5

Dodge last year said goodbye to the iconic Challenger and Charger , creating a Hellcat-sized void in its lineup. All that’s left now is the Durango midsize SUV and its numerous limited editions, as well as the all-new Hornet small crossover that is now enjoying its sophomore year. Production of …September 27, 2024

2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Jailbreak: All About That Muscle4.5/5

Introduced in 2009 just as the Magnum wagon was being axed, the Dodge Challenger became an instant hit. That’s pretty incredible considering how bad the economy was at the time—not to mention the Chrysler Group. With the return of the Chevy Camaro a year later, Detroit’s Big Three renewed their …October 10, 2023

2021 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye: Old-school Power and Fun4.0/5

Dodge’s parent company Stellantis made one thing pretty clear recently: the Hellcat’s days are numbered. With increasingly strict emission regulations, big and ultra-powerful V8 engines that burn fuel like there’s no tomorrow have no future. For now, however, Dodge is making the most of its fire-breathing, supercharged 6.2-litre V8, the …September 1, 2021

2021 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat: What the Hell is That?4.0/5

The new 2021 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat is arguably one of the strangest vehicles you can find on the market right now. Why? Well, think about it. This is a medium-to-large SUV with seating for up to seven and aging looks, yet it packs a monstrous engine delivering over 700 …June 29, 2021

2021 Dodge Durango: A Dinosaur We Adore3.5/5

With the Journey gone, the Durango is now Dodge’s last remaining SUV—at a time when most companies choose to offer fewer cars and more SUVs. Ironic, eh? The popular Grand Caravan is a Chrysler now, too, leaving only the Charger / Challenger duo to share the spotlight with the Durango. March 19, 2021

2020 Dodge Grand Caravan: One Last Time2.5/5

The funny thing about the Dodge Grand Caravan —and many other FCA products, for that matter—is that MSRPs listed on the brand’s website are ridiculously high. Nobody actually buys one at those prices. Incentives can go as high as $15,000, which is about 30 percent off. And now time is …June 8, 2020

2018 Dodge Durango SRT: Pro Linebacker4.0/5

When Dodge was fine-tuning the 2018 Durango SRT around Virginia International Raceway, it tested the rig with and without an air intake fitted in the lower left corner of its front fascia. Realizing it was quicker this way around the track by 1.2 seconds, the SRT geeks decided to leave …June 4, 2018

2018 Dodge Challenger GT: Twelve Months a Year3.5/5

Musclecars may obviously not be perceived as environmentally friendly vehicles, especially now that electrified powertrains are starting to gain traction on the market, by choice or by obligation. The Dodge Challenger, the Chevrolet Camaro and the Ford Mustang are most enjoyable with their honking V8 engines, but there are more …May 14, 2018

2017 Dodge Charger Daytona 392: a Throwback to the Good ol' Days4.0/5

Vehicle names come and go, but the good ones, especially the variants, are always remembered. In some cases, they get revived and that's been the case on several occasions for the performance-based Daytona name for the Dodge brand. For 2017, the Daytona name is attached to the Charger, the well-known …September 13, 2017

2017 Dodge Challenger R/T: Keeping it Old School4.0/5

In a world of sleek silhouettes and modern curved vehicles, a drive-by of an old-school muscle car still makes an impression. For some, it's the boisterous engine thrust; for others, it's the crackle of its exhaust; and then there's its aggressive and imposing looks. In most cases, it's a sum …May 30, 2017

2016 Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT 392: Would you Like your Poison in Two or Four Doors?4.0/5

In the long list of performance machines that is the Dodge Charger/Challenger lineup, somewhat lost between the relatively affordable Scat Pack and the headline-grabbing Hellcat is the SRT 392. I had the opportunity to test both the Charger and Challenger on back-to-back weeks, which was helpful for comparison reasons. The …November 22, 2016
