2011 Dodge Charger Review


2011 Dodge charger powertrain
The 2011 Dodge Charger might continue to offer V-6 and V-8 engines  and once again it will retain the conventional rear wheel drive. However, consumer may see optional all-wheel drive (AWD) to avoid snowy-weather doldrums. The rear wheel drive of Dodge Charger make it stand out from other whether it is domestic or Foreign vehicles. No carmaker able to provide rear wheel drive like Chrysler provide in Dodge charger, when price is view point.. Rear-wheel drive is always valued by consumers as it maintains the weight of the powertrain all over the body of the car. Dissimilar to front-wheel drive, RWD doesn’t force the front tires to push the car on top of steer it, which is very much required so can break down both grip and directional control.
The 2006-2010 Charger was developed while Chrysler was with Daimler. The vehicles behavior was influenced by Mercedes-Benz suspension design.  But how much 2011 Charger’s “LY” platform is influenced by  so-called LX platform is still point of argument  Dodge claimed that it is all new . 2011 Dodge Charger will come with Chrysler’s new-generation V-6 engine which is well known for i fuel-efficiency. Named as V6 Pentastar, this new power proves up chiefly as a 3.6-liter in the all new 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee. There it produce 280 horsepower and 260 pound-feet of torque  as we know torque is very important feature when acceleration of vehicles concerned.
It is assumed that the all new Dodge Charger 2011 will come with similar V6 Pentastar is in base model replacing current  2.7-liter V-6  which produces 178 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque . The sporty 2011 Charger R/T will equipped with Chrysler’s 5.7-liter Hemi V-8. People will see the bump in the high end model as well.. A big change will be found in powertrain effectiveness that is addition of an eight-speed automatic transmission. More when car will be release.
When comes to exterior, 2011 Dodge charger will come with lot of exterior changes like bold cross bar grille, thin windshield pillar, few degree rake up and  low roofline.
The expected release date is late 2010. But there may be delay due to Chrysler’s present situation.
