The new Dodge Challenger has been in production since 2008. This is a sports car with two doors (coupe), which shares common design elements with the original Challenger, produced in early 1970's. This sports car is offered with three gasoline engines. The base 3.5-liter V6 is powerful enough to handle traffic while driving in the city, but gets bogged down a little by the weight of the car.

The 5.7-liter V8 is more suitable for this model. The mileage difference between the two engines is only 2 miles per gallon with the 3.5-liter only slightly getting the upper hand. The SRT8 version is equipped with 6.1-liter Hemi V8 engine that produces 425 horsepower. The Dodge Challenger is available with 4-speed (3.5 V6) and 5-speed automatic or 6-speed manual transmission (6.1 V8).

Hemi engines use multifunctional and exclude cylinders to save fuel. However, this car is not very fuel efficient. This sports car is available at a relatively good price, though and it is a fairly reliable option.

This car has an attractive exterior appearance, but the interior could be better. The materials used are of the middle class, and the colors are just dark. Despite these shortcomings, the interior of the sports car is functional. It is worth mentioning that the rear seat is more spacious than most customers would expect of a Dodge Challenger.

Rear seats can accommodate two adults, but legroom is slightly limited. Also, the rear seats can be folded down to expand the trunk. The Challenger comes with multi-front airbags and air curtains. This car is equipped with tire pressure monitors as well. Standard features on the base model include air conditioning, electric windows, electric mirrors, central locking, cruise control and 17 inch alloy wheels.
