That adds Brembo six-piston front brakes and black 20” X 9.5” black wheels wrapped in 275/40/R20 Pirelli all-season performance tires. The hood scoop, prominent spoiler, and large-diameter exhaust outlets make it immediately clear that this Charger is meant to run with Mustang GTs and Camaro SSs, not V6 Camrys.ĭodge covered my test car in F8 Green paint and equipped it with the optional Dynamics Package. Other than those small changes, the Scat Pack remains the same and that’s a good thing. On the trunk lid, they replaced the R/T badge with a new Scat Pack bee badge. To make the car look even more aggressive, Dodge gave it the dual-inlet grille found on the 707-horsepower Charger SRT Hellcat. You have to look closely to spot the changes Dodge made to the outside of the Scat Pack.

Like other 2019 Chargers, it benefits from a significant round of updates. Dodge offers that and two larger V8s in the Charger: a naturally aspirated 6.4-liter HEMI and a supercharged 6.2-liter Hellcat.Ī few weeks ago, Dodge handed me the keys to a 2019 Charger R/T Scat Pack. And it’s only available with a 5.7-liter HEMI V8. The 300 is more sedate and luxury-focused. But that’s not the same as the Charger, either. However, it’s supercharged and has a base price that's much higher than the Charger's.ĭodge’s corporate cousin, Chrysler, offers its 300 with a V8. You might be asking, “But what about the Cadillac CTS-V?” Yes, it's an American sedan with rear-wheel drive and a V8. Unfortunately, it was only around for a few years before it was discontinued in 2017. It followed the same formula: eight cylinders up front, room for four in the middle, and two driven wheels in the back. The closest Chevy came to producing something similar was the SS.

They have four- or six-cylinder engines with less power that drive either the front or all four wheels. Ford and Chevrolet make sedans, but none of them are quite like the naturally aspirated, V8-powered, rear-wheel-drive Charger. Don’t let the fact that you see so many of them on the road fool you. A Dodge Charger with a V8 is a rare breed of American car these days.
