STRENGTHS:
Distinctive, uniquely American style; strong V8 performance; comfortable ride; supportive front seats
VALUE:
The 2010 Dodge Charger has hints of classic muscle car in its design yet is a rather roomy, practical and comfortable 4-door sedan. At the top of the line, the Charger R/T and especially the SRT8 bring serious high performance. With a 0-60 time of around five seconds, the SRT8 is the fastest sedan in the Dodge lineup. Most Chargers are rear-wheel drive; combined with a near-50/50 weight distribution it has more poise on curvy roads than the typical large sedan. All-wheel-drive sedans allow the Charger better all-weather composure.
WHAT'S NEW:
The Charger is carried over into 2010 with virtually no changes. Supplemental side-curtain airbags are newly standard on all models, while there are a couple of appearance changes of note. All models get new body-color sill cladding, while Charger SE trims gets a new chromed grille with black insert.
