| Dodge Charger Fuel Economy: Pros | ||

| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
It weights 3800 lb, and returns 28 mpg on the highway, if you use mid-grade or premium fuel. Consumption goes up in winter (24 mpg). There is nothing wrong with these numbers, and in return you get a big, safe car that gives you decent chance in a crash. |

| 2009 | 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD |
The chager did not have appealing fuel economy. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 250-horsepower 3.5L V6 4-speed automatic RWD |
City mileage is not that great. highway mileage is good. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 350-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
Well it is better than my Jeep Grand Cherokee was, but an additional mile or two a gallon would be nice. With all the pluses though a 24 - 25 highway MPG is tolerable. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 350-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
12mpg in urban environment with v8. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 350-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
very low if I drive with a heavy foot |
