The 2020 Dodge Challenger is hitting the streets and people are excited for good reason. Maybe you’re considering a new vehicle and didn’t have the new Challenger on your radar, but it’s
definitely worth checking out. This year’s release has everything going for it. You’ll find a sporty attitude combine with some of the most in-demand tech available today. Here’s an in-depth look at the top three features that will make you crave this awesome machine.
Legendary Performance Features
You can’t talk about a dodge muscle car without first discussing their impressive performance features, so that’s where we’ll begin. For starters, there are five different engines available based on which trim level you look at. The first engine is a 3.6-liter Pentastar engine with an output of 303 horsepower and just over 250 pound-feet of torque. It’s the only six cylinder option in the mix.
The remaining four engines are all V8 configurations with plenty of power between them. The least-powerful V-8 option is a 5.7-liter with an output of 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque for plenty of pulling power when you hit the gas. As you work your way up the engine options, both torque and horsepower numbers increase and are maxed out at the supercharged hellcat engine with an output of 797 horsepower and 707 pound-feet of torque.
The 2020 Challenger includes a launch-control system in the center console that gives drivers unparalleled control when it’s time to get up and go. Other impressive performance features include an advanced electronic steering system that you set a sensitivity level for and a performance dashboard on the center console which displays engine, transmission, and throttle specs.
A Transmission for Everyone
Not everyone is able to drive a manual transmission, but, thankfully you don’t have to worry about that with the 2020 Dodge Challenger. There’s a transmission system for everyone! Of course, this classic performance vehicle is available with a six-speed manual transmission. An electronic shifter gives you the best of both worlds. Smooth shifts with both physical and visual feedback during shifting maneuvers. Those who are looking for that muscle car experience without the manual shifting can opt for the eight-speed Torqueflite automatic transmission which is available on the V-6 engine configuration.
A Cool, Futuristic Interior
Not much needs to be said about the stunning visual appearance of all the 2020 Challenger trims. Thankfully, the interior is just as sleek. The standard features on the Challenger are awesome, but, it’s all the available customizations to the steering wheel, seating, shifting knob, and other areas that make it such a cool and unique ride. The center console is equipped with the popular UConnect entertainment system which gives you access to features such as media streaming, hands-free calling, and the ability to turn your Challenger into a 4G LTE internet hot spot.
If you’ve ever been on the fence about buying a muscle car, the 2020 Challenger is a great choice. Longtime owners and first time buyers alike will love this year’s iteration of an American classic.
