TrueDelta Reviews the Available Features of the 2016 Chevrolet SS

2016 Chevrolet SS Available Features: Pros
YearComment
2015 With a 415-horsepower 6.2-liter V8, the Chevrolet SS is a little quicker than the heavier, 370-horsepower Dodge Charger R/T in a straight line, but cannot keep up with the 485-horsepower Charger SRT, much less the 707-horsepower Charger SRT Hellcat. If you don't need to get from a dead stop to 60 miles-per-hour in well under five seconds, the SS will do. But if you're seeking the quickest, most gut-wrenching car, the Dodge is the way to go. Unless you want a manual transmission. For 2015 one became an option on the SS, but remains unavailable on the Dodge sedan. (You can get a manual on the related Challenger coupe.) The manual shifter in the Chevrolet feels solid and precise. It's a joy to operate, and provides a more direct and engaging connection to the car, further heightening the joy of driving the SS along a curvy road. For the manual transmission alone I've listed "feature availability" among the reasons to buy a Chevrolet SS. In other respects the SS offers fewer features than the Dodge Charger. Most notably, only one engine is offered, while with the Dodge you can get engines ranging from a 292-horsepower V6 to a 707-horsepower supercharged V8. see full Chevrolet SS review
