The base 2018 SXT trim comes standard with a 3.6L V6 24-Valve VVT engine with 300 horsepower and 264 lb-ft of torque. The TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission shifts up well and is designed to get you pumping right off the line. A thunderous 5.7L V8 HEMI® MDS VVT with 370 horsepower with 395 lb-ft of torque is available on the R/T along with even more powerful V8 engines on higher trim levels.  

If you’re an adrenaline junkie in search of something with insane output, consider the Charger SRT® Hellcat V8. It’s supercharged 6.2L HEMI® MDS VVT V8 engine that cranks out an astonishing 707 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque.

The touring suspension found on the SXT provides quality smoothness similar to what you might find in a luxury touring sedan. Performance suspension comes standard on the Daytona trim. Sport Mode is available on all higher-level trims which gives increased handling capability. All trims come with rear-wheel-drive, but all-wheel-drive is also available on the SXT and SXT-Plus.
