Engine and fuel
Power comes from the 3.6L 6-cylinder, driving through an 8-speed automatic. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
At 10.3 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 31 litres of fuel. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $47.91 at our price setting. EPA puts its fuel cost at US$2,900 a year for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Room inside
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its 453 litre trunk is enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.
Good uses for the Challenger
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.
A longer test drive
A week with the Challenger answers more than any brochure. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Challenger answers the big questions. A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel.
What it costs to run
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. The EPA estimates US$2,900 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.97 in fuel.
Year and trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.
