The new 2009 Dodge
Challenger is a modern-day muscle machine representing the best from
the past and present. The first five-passenger, two-door coupe produced from
Chrysler’s proven rear-wheel-drive platform that
delivers the Chrysler 300 and Dodge Charger. Developed
with Dodge’s credo of “bold, powerful and capable,” the
Challenger delivers a modern two-door muscle car. Three
models will be offered in North America: Dodge
Challenger SRT8, Dodge Challenger R/T and Dodge
Challenger SE. |

The Dodge Challenger R/T
(Road/Track) features the new-generation 5.7-liter HEMI
V-8 engine with a five-speed automatic transmission that
produces an estimated 370 horsepower and 398 lb.-ft. of
torque. For 2009, the HEMI engine is upgraded to get an
estimated five percent improvement in fuel economy as
well as an increase of 30 horsepower (9 percent) and 8
lb.-ft. improved torque (2 percent) over a greater range
of engine speeds. The automatic transmission features
fuel-saving multi-displacement (MDS) technology which
increases fuel economy by as much as 20 percent
depending on driving conditions without sacrificing
vehicle performance. The Dodge Challenger R/T also
offers a precision-shift six-speed manual transmission,
the first for a new-generation HEMI powered car. This
option produces 375 horsepower and 404 lb.-ft. of torque
when running on premium fuel. The Dodge Challenger R/T
can go from zero to 60 mph in less than six seconds. |
