To say that competition throughout the muscle car class is fierce would be putting it mildly. In our mind here at Ralph Sellers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, this segment is a veritable vehicular battle royal that features some of the brawniest bad boys in the biz.
That said, we've complete confidence that ours -- the 2016 Dodge Challenger -- can go toe-to-toe with just about any other out there. And in the video below, Autotrader pundit, Jabari Jones, will back our opinion with cold, hard facts. Take a moment to hear him out right now:
Though it'd be wrong to term the Challenger's 305-horsepower V6 base engine "sluggish," it admittedly can't quite hold a candle to some of its sprightlier stablemates. Take, for instance, the available 6.4-liter V8.
Standard with the Scat Pack and SRT 392 trims, this extraordinary eight-banger produces a prodigious 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. It's bound to astound on the acceleration front, too, as it can serve up the 0-to-60 mph sprint in the mid-4-second range.
