The Dodge Charger, a classic nameplate revived in 2005, returned as a four-door sedan built upon the LX platform, a large rear-wheel drive chassis shared with other Chrysler Group vehicles like the Chrysler 300 and the Dodge Magnum. This iteration, spanning model years 2005 to 2012, marked a departure from the muscle car lineage of its predecessors, moving toward a more luxurious and spacious direction while retaining its sporty character. Available in a range of trims, from the base SE to the performance-focused SRT8, the Charger offered diverse options for both practicality and power. Powertrain options ranged from a 2.7L V6 to a 5.7L Hemi V8, with the SRT8 boasting a 6.1L Hemi V8 generating a formidable 425 horsepower. The Charger also incorporated modern safety features like multi-stage airbags, electronic stability control, and anti-lock brakes, making it a well-rounded vehicle for both everyday driving and spirited performance.
While the Charger's exterior design maintained a distinct resemblance to its iconic predecessors, it adopted a more contemporary and refined aesthetic. The large grille, aggressive headlights, and muscular lines hinted at its performance capabilities, while the spacious cabin offered comfortable seating for five, premium materials, and an array of technology options. This generation of the Charger successfully bridged the gap between the classic muscle car image and modern expectations, offering a blend of comfort, practicality, and performance that appealed to a wide range of drivers.
