This all-out performance version of Dodge's already-bold Charger sedan features an AutoStick five-speed automatic transmission, 20-inch alloy wheels with performance tires, sport suspension, dual chrome exhaust pipes, plus aerodynamic body kit with hood scoop and rear spoiler.

But the heart of the car is certainly the 6.1-liter SRT Hemi V8 engine. This powerplant puts out an impressive 425 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque at 4,800 rpm. The rumbling exhaust note alone gets the adrenaline pumping.

Power is channeled to the rear wheels, accelerating the Charger from zero to 60 miles per hour in under five seconds. The top speed is 165 mph.

Fuel economy reflects this engine's performance characteristics, rating at 14 miles per gallon on the city cycle and 20 on the highway cycle.

The Charger also comes equipped with brake assist, an Electronic Stability Program, four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes and fog lights.

Badges for Charger, SRT8 and Hemi are sprinkled about to show the world just what this performance machine is all about.

Interior comfort and convenience items are well represented, too, with leather seats, a six-speaker Boston Acoustics audio system, cruise control, air conditioning, plus full power amenities (windows, door locks, heated mirrors, front seats).

Other features include a back-seat SIRIUS satellite video system, 20-gigabyte MyGIG infotainment system, plus illuminated cupholders and map pockets.

The Charger is built at the same Brampton, Ontario, Canada factory as the Chrysler 300. Both vehicles share many parts and the same overall proportions. And both come in high-performance versions from Dodge's in-house Street and Racing Technology (SRT) skunkworks.
