Web Appearance of Price Details on Next Year's Challenger from Dodge

SRT Challenger appears as a modest product with the leaked prices indicating that the record output would not reflect on sky-rocketing expenditure list.

$60,000 is the once-mysterious price. In comparative means, new muscle car would sit between the roaring Camaro Z/28 and less price-aggressive counterpart of the latter – Camaro ZL1 together with Shelby GT500.

Products of Detroit 3 have gained a sad reputation for being unable to smoothly drive into the curve, but SRT with its Chrysler-developed eight-cylinder supercharged engine has a good chance to ruin an unpleasant tradition. Such allegations have a rationale, for American track-oriented vehicles of middle price segment also do not shine in this regard, but the annoying disadvantage is easily fixed by throwing in a couple of thousand dollars for the production of each car.

Currently auto journalists are mostly concerned with two aspects peculiar to the new Dodge, namely, its burnout characteristics and fastness on a race route. In this regard, it is known that the previous information about 40-second mile run does not correspond to the real state of things with the official specifications indicating a slightly less impressive figure of 44.8 seconds.
