2015 Dodge Charger Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2015 | The Road & Track package includes some of the best front seats I've experienced. The side bolsters, though not adjustable, manage to effectively hold slender drivers in place without uncomfortably constraining far-from-slender ones. Synthetic suede center panels assist in this task. Yet as performance-oriented as these seats are, they aren't overly firm, and should prove comfortable even on day-long drives. Despite the more hardcore nature of the Chevrolet SS, its front seats have much smaller, far less effective bolsters. Some synthetic suede helps to mitigate this shortcoming, but the Dodge's buckets are much better for both comfort and support. see full Dodge Charger review |
2015 Dodge Charger Seat Room and Comfort: Cons | ||
Year | Comment | |
The Dodge Charger's rear seat cushion is comfortably shaped and positioned. Rear knee room, though less abundant than the sedan's exterior dimensions might suggest, is neverless generous. So what is rear seat room doing among the reasons not to buy a Charger? Well, headroom is in short supply. People 5-11 and up could become painfully familiar with the backlight. Shorter passengers won't experience this issue, but could find the back seat uncomfortably confining because the smallish rear side windows descend only to neck level. For more rear headroom and larger rear side windows, check out the related Chrysler 300. Or the Chevrolet SS, which has 1.4 inches more rear headroom than the Charger. see full Dodge Charger review |

2015 Dodge Charger Powertrain: Pros | ||
Year | Comment | |
2015 | A stock Dodge Charger can be propelled by as much as 707 horsepower. But the supercharged Hellcat, like other V8-powered Chargers this year, is only offered with rear-wheel drive. Two tires, even two wide sticky ones, cannot transfer this much power to the pavement below 40 mph. Opening up the throttle in first gear with traction control deactivated transforms solid rubber into a black cloud. If your driving will be limited to public roads, the Charger R/T Scat Pack's 485-horsepower V8 can deliver all the thrust you can use at legal speeds, and then some. Drop down another level, to the tested 370-horsepower R/T Road & Track, and the Charger can still get from a dead stop to 60 mph in well under six seconds. It might be about a second behind the Scat Pack and two seconds behind the Hellcat, but the regular R/T is nevertheless a very quick car. Even Dodge's weakest V8 delivers the sort of low-rpm punch at which Detroit traditionally excelled. For a strong, clean departure from the line every time, launch control is included in the Road & Track package. Acceleration times for the lighter, rawer-sounding (with an intoxicating snap-crackle-pop when you lift) Chevrolet SS split the difference between those for the regular R/T and the R/T Scat Pack. When I reviewed the Charger three years ago, I recommended the V6 over the V8--but not primarily because of differences between the engines. The 300-horsepower 3.6-liter V6 motivates two tons of Charger well enough, but cannot approach the low-rpm thrust of the much larger V8s. But the 2012-2014 V6 was paired with a responsive state-of-the-art eight-speed automatic transmission, while the V8s continued to be hobbled by a sluggish, antiquated slushbox with only five widely spaced ratios. I preferred the V6 powertrain's more immediate responses to the V8 powertrain's brute force. With the 2015 update, you no longer have to choose between power and responsiveness, as the V8 engines are now paired with the eight-speed automatic. Even better, the monostatic shifter employed with this transmission from 2012 through 2014 has been ditched in favor of one that, while still electronic, convincingly mimics a conventional mechanical shifter, taking the guesswork out of finding reverse. see full Dodge Charger review |
