2009 Dodge Charger.

2009 Dodge Charger. Dodge dusted off the Charger name in 2006 and slapped it on a full-size, rear-wheel-drive (all-wheel drive is an option) sedan closely related to the Chrysler 300. Although the 300 will appeal to those seeking luxury, the Charger is intended to attract buyers looking for performance in the family-sedan segment. Larger than some of the run-of-the-mill front-drive family sedans such as the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord, the Charger sports aggressive and polarizing styling.

Four engines are offered in the Charger. Basic SE versions are powered by a 2.7-liter V-6 with 178 hp coupled to a four-speed automatic. Acceleration with the 2.7-liter is tepid, as the engine works hard to move the Charger. Fuel economy for the base engine is an estimated 18 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.

Moving up to the SXT yields a 3.5-liter V-6 with 250 hp and a four-speed automatic. SXT models are available with optional all-wheel drive that comes standard with a five-speed automatic transmission. The larger V-6 moves the Charger with much more spirit than the base engine, but it will seem a bit slow if one samples the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8. The 3.5’s larger displacement hurts fuel economy slightly; the rear-drive SXT returns an estimated 17 mpg city and 25 highway.

All-wheel-drive versions achieve an estimated 17/23 mpg.
