2015 Dodge Charger review

1. Find the right Charger for you

The 2015 Charger introduced a new look for the Dodge sedan. Bolder front and rear styling lend the car a more striking appearance, while a choice of 10 colors — including the super-bright TorRed and B5 Blue — are complemented by 14 standard and available wheel designs. Eight interior options include the choice of either cloth or leather materials, with available packages for further personalization. Whichever exterior or interior combination appeals, you should find the Charger that's right for you.

2. Roomy and high-grade interior

The 2015 Dodge Charger is a full-size performance sedan that can comfortably accommodate you and your passengers. Those in the front enjoy 41.8 inches of legroom with 59.5 inches of shoulder room, with around the same amount of space for rear-seat passengers. The high-end materials available on higher trims levels make traveling in the Dodge an enjoyable experience, whether you regularly carry passengers, or want comfort on those long, solo drives. Bluetooth^® connectivity, SiriusXM^® Satellite Radio, a Uconnect^® infotainment system (with a five- or 8.4-inch touchscreen depending on the trim) and a seven-inch configurable digital gauge cluster are highlights of the feature-filled trims.

3. Plenty of performance

True to its muscle car heritage, the 2015 Dodge Charger is a sedan with plenty of performance. A 292-hp 3.6L V6 sits under the hood of both SE and SXT trims, while the R/T and R/T Road & Track pack 370 hp from their Hemi^® 5.7L V8 engines. R/T Scat Pack and SRT 392 trims have a Hemi 6.4L V8 with 485 hp. Although every 2015 Charger has plenty of power for cruising the highway, if you fancy going on track, the SRT Hellcat has a mighty 707 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque from its supercharged Hemi 6.2L V8 motor. If it's slightly thriftier performance you're after, go for the V6, as it achieves an EPA-estimated 31 mpg on the highway.

4. All-wheel-drive options

All 2015 Dodge Chargers are rear-wheel drive, but if you want extra stability in more slippery conditions, the SE and SXT trims have an available AWD option. Equipped with automatic front axle disconnect, the Charger's system seamlessly switches between RWD and AWD with no driver intervention. This gives you more grip when taking tight corners, further adding to the Charger's performance credentials.

5. Sporty and smooth drive

The 2015 Dodge Charger may be a sports sedan, but it's also a comfortable cruiser. It has a stable and smooth ride – with adaptive Bilstein^® suspension on SRT trims – perfect for those occasions when you're not pressing on. However, when you are in the mood and on the right roads for a more spirited drive, the Charger's steering is quick to react, making it a fun car to drive.
