Dodge Charger
Here's a question for Allentown and Bethlehem residents; what's the first name that comes to mind when you think of American muscle? The Dodge Charger of course! The original Charger was the icon for American muscle cars, thanks to its dominance on NASCAR race tracks along with its cutting edge styling. As the world began to look into cars with lesser engine power and more versatility, the American muscle car segment lost quite a lot of interest.
However, the Charger is one of the few models that still remain true to its roots, still boasting that raw brawn muscle power under the hood while combining the comforts and safety features of modern automobiles. A cutting edge piece of engineering, the new Dodge Charger is now available for Allentown and Bethlehem residents at Kelly CDJR.
Engine
The heart of any good American muscle car rests under the hood. Same is the case with the Dodge Charger, which boasts a 3.5 liter V6 engine as standard. The V6 is able to produce an ample 292hp while providing good fuel economy. You may also upgrade to the Blacktop package that can provide an extra 8hp to the existing power output.
Further down the line, you have a 5.7 liter V8 that pulls the Charger with 370 horses. If you are still craving for horsepower (which we doubt you are), you can up the ante by getting the SRT8 option, which raises the performance bar up to an incredible 470 horsepower thanks to its 6.4 liter V8.
Exterior
The Dodge Charger, though based on the Chrysler 300's structure, is certainly much more aggressively designed and boasting a more dominating appeal as compared to the latter. The roof lines of the back slope down to give off a coupe-like impression, while the large front grille adds the final touches to the muscle car of the new generation.
Features
The great thing about the Dodge is that it not only pays homage to the old American muscle cars of the 70s through its loud grunt and powerful engine, it actually improves upon the muscle car concept by allowing for more comfortable ride dynamics. This means that while you can burn up rubber on the tracks in Bethlehem, you can also take the kids out for a road trip through Allentown as comfortably as you would in a normal sedan.
The interior is also thoughtfully designed, providing much needed rear legroom and having an overall solid build quality. The Dodge Charger is certainly one model that will appeal to muscle car enthusiasts as well as folks who would like to experience nostalgia when behind the wheel of this next generation muscle car. You can have a look at the new Dodge Charger at Kelly CDJR, the prime automobile dealership in all of Allentown and Bethlehem.
