2012 Dodge Charger Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2012 | The V6 Charger also feels right because it sits right. Sitting moderately high in the big comfortable seat gazing over an expansive hood, you might start to wonder why traditional American cars don't rule the road the way they once did. Visibility isn't the best, but the 2011 redesign did enlarge the windows, alleviating the bunker-like ambiance of the 2005-2010 sedans. see full Dodge Charger review |

2012 Dodge Charger Powertrain: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2012 | The eight-speed automatic also gives the engine the initial gearing it needs to provide the performance promised by the bold styling. Previously, the V6, especially the pre-2011 V6, underwhelmed. The new transmission is also much more responsive than the old one, and eliminates wide gaps between gear ratios, making you feel much more connected to the car. I personally value this responsiveness more in daily driving than I would the greater absolute thrust of the V8. And when they start offering the V8 with this transmission, will the V6 once again seem second class? That remains to be seen. For those who like to give the transmission direct orders, the Rallye Appearance Group includes paddle shifters on the steering wheel. see full Dodge Charger review |

There are two engines, the V6 and the 5.7 in the Pursuit. AWD is available with the Hemi now, and not the V6, which is the opposite of retail policy. see full Dodge Charger review |
