If you look at the Dodge Charger and think "performance," that's not by accident. The Dodge Charger's chassis design intentionally pulls cues from muscle cars of the past. While its spacious five-seat interior provides room for comfort, the Charger is built to look like the sort of car you'd take roaring down an empty stretch of highway.

Better yet? It's built to deliver that sort of performance too. New models use a smooth-shifting 8-speed automatic transmission and have access to a robust spread of high-performance engines.
