Dodge Charger Engines and Transmissions

Every Dodge Charger engine here is gasoline and sends power rearward. The 3.7 MT and 5.2 MT pair modest and mid-size displacement with a manual gearbox, rewarding drivers who prefer their own shifts, while the 6.6 AT uses an automatic transmission for relaxed, torque-rich cruising.
