Challenger
A SHEEP IN WOLF’S CLOTHING
2009 Dodge Challenger SE models will be powered by a 3.5-liter V6
making 250 horsepower, available only with a four-speed automatic
transmission. R/T models will feature a more powerful, 5.7-liter V8
rated for 370 horsepower. It will be offered with an automatic or a
six-speed manual gearbox. The top-of-the-line SRT8 will feature a
6.1-liter Hemi V8 rated for 425 horsepower, and the same set of
transmissions as the R/T. Fuel economy varies from 15/23 (for that big
Hemi) to 18/25 (for the low-end SE model). All Challengers are
rear-wheel drive. Safety equipment includes ABS, brake assist, tire
pressure monitoring and six airbags. A new hill-start assist program
promises to keep manual-equipped Challengers from rolling backward when
starting on an incline.
Available Models: SE, SXT, R\T, SRT8
Starting at: $24,995
