In fairness to the competition, the Charger is riding on a slightly older platform. Just think of it like a slight blast from the past. You won’t find semi-autonomous driving ability nor the latest in in-cabin electronics. Still, the 2022 Dodge Charger remains competitive. Dodge offers several advanced driver-assist features like blind spot assist and rear cross-traffic alerts, an excellent Uconnect infotainment system, and, on V6 models, the option of all-wheel drive.
This uniquely American 4-door muscle car sets itself apart from other sedans for a multitude of reasons. First, not many family sedans can match the muscles and manners of the 2022 Dodge Charger. Its styling and performance is on a different level than its competitors like the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord, and Hyundai Sonata. We all know the Dodge Charger’s iconic look is a part of its cool factor, but the choice between two V8 engines gives this vehicle the power to run neck and neck with some of the world’s great performance cars. In R/T form, a HEMI V8 helps the Charger achieve 60 mph in just over five seconds with a top speed of 155 mph. Those numbers come down even more in the supercharged SRT Hellcat trim, but even the base V6 can rocket the Charger to 60 mph in under seven seconds. That’s a lot of power! Let’s do a deep dive into each trim.
2022 Dodge Charger SXT
Starting at $31,350, powering the entry-level Dodge Charger SXT is a 3.6-liter V6 engine good for 292 horsepower (300 when equipped with all-wheel drive) and an 8-speed automatic transmission. Standard driver-safety and assists include electronic traction and stability control, full airbag coverage, anti-lock brakes, and hill start assist. A rear backup camera and rear parking sensors are also standard. The Charger offers more advanced driver assistance such as automatic emergency braking, a blind-spot monitor, and lane-keeping. However, in contrast to most competitors, these systems are optional, not standard.
The Exterior
Noting the SXT’s exterior, it reveals the simplest version of the Charger image, devoid of racing stripes, fender flares, or a hood scoop. The SXT features automatic bi-functional LED projector headlights, body-colored power side mirrors, 17-inch silver alloy wheels, and variable wipers. Power windows with driver and passenger one-touch up/down come standard, as does cruise control, proximity keyless entry with push-button start, dual-zone manual climate control, a driver information display, and a detailed gauge cluster including a tachometer, 140-mph speedometer, plus temperature and fuel gauges. Unexpected features at this price include remote start, power trunk release, an acoustic windshield, and illuminated driver and passenger-side vanity mirrors.
The Interior
Cloth-covered sport seats in black come standard. The rear seats have a 60/40 split for easy access to the large trunk. The Charger also includes a tilt/telescoping leather-wrapped steering wheel with touch controls for the audio, cruise, and Bluetooth. The SXT’s standard audio includes six speakers, dual USB charging ports, and an auxiliary input jack. A Uconnect infotainment system with a 7-inch touch screen provides connectivity features such as streaming Bluetooth, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto.
The Performance
The SXT gains a more powerful alternator, performance brakes, electronic stability control with sport mode, heated side mirrors, LED fog lights, 19-inch wheels, and dual-zone automatic climate control when upgraded to all-wheel drive. Also included is the Dodge Performance Pages feature that allows you to keep track of performance data, an 8-way power driver’s seat with 4-way power lumbar support, an 8.4-inch touch-screen, SiriusXM, and a performance steering wheel with paddle shifters.
Package Upgrade Options
It is important to mention that SXT bundled upgrade packages are available! The Alpine Audio Group includes nine Alpine speakers, an amplifier, and a powered subwoofer. At the same time, the Cold Weather Group adds heated side mirrors, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel. Additionally, The Driver’s Convenience Group adds a blind-spot monitor with rear cross-traffic detection, power mirrors, HID headlights, LED fog lights, and a garage door opener. The Technology group completes the SXTs driver-assist systems by adding forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beam headlights. The package also includes dual-zone automatic climate control.Last, there are several visual upgrades packages, including the Blacktop Package. Other options included in various packages are navigation, a power tilt/telescoping steering wheel, 19- and 20-inch wheels, and a six-speaker Alpine audio upgrade. A power sunroof is a standalone option.
2022 Dodge Charger GT
Starting at $33,625, The GT uses the same 300-hp V6 as the SXT AWD. Like the SXT, the GT offers the choice of rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. Beyond the performance hood and 20-inch wheels, the GT’s standard features include performance brakes, dual rear exhaust with bright tips, a performance suspension with Bilstein shocks, three-mode electronic stability control, projector LED fog lamps, and a body-colored rear spoiler.
The Exterior
With its additional exterior upgrades, including a hood scoop and larger wheels, the GT is the better buy versus the SXT because you get the visual appeal of the more expensive R/T without the added cost or lower fuel economy. Score!
The Interior
The GT’s cabin features an 8-way power driver’s and passenger seat with 4-way power lumbar support, an Alpine six-speaker audio system, an 8.4-inch touch-screen infotainment upgrade with SiriusXM satellite radio, and a CD/DVD/MP3 player.
The Performance
In addition to the SXT’s options list, the GT offers the Performance Handling Group with black Brembo fixed caliper 4-piston brakes, a flat-bottomed steering wheel, a high-performance suspension, and 20-inch Black Noise wheels with all-season performance 245/45ZR20 tires. This package is not available with all-wheel drive. Also, the Plus Group adds a blind-spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert, memory for the driver’s seat, mirrors and power steering wheel, a heated steering wheel, heated side mirrors, HID headlights, and LED interior lighting. The package also includes Nappa and Alcantara seating and 20×8-inch Satin Carbon wheels (rear-drive GT only).
2022 Dodge Charger R/T
Starting at $39,745 the R/T is the first of the Charger lineup to get as standard a 5.7-liter HEMI V8. With 370 hp on tap, this engine gives the Charger the power to reach 60 mph in just over five seconds. Beyond the big V8 engine, the R/T builds off the GT’s standard equipment list by offering a thicker rear axle (220 mm vs. 195 mm), an active performance exhaust, 20-inch Satin Carbon wheels, and a 160-mph speedometer.
In the R/T wheelhouse of available equipment are the previously mentioned Driver Convenience Group, Performance Handling Group, Technology Group, and Cold Weather Group. However, a Daytona Edition Group adds leather and Alcantara sport seats, Mopar cold air intake, a memory system for seats, steering wheel, and mirrors, plus a blind-spot monitor. Also included is a gloss black instrument panel cluster, a padded dash, a security alarm, heated steering wheel, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, LED interior lighting, a black one-piece rear spoiler, and Daytona decals. Last, the Harman Kardon Audio Group can add 19 Harman Kardon Greenedge speakers that use less power than conventional speakers, thus requiring a less powerful amp to achieve stunning sound.
2022 Dodge Charger Scat Pack
The Performance
Starting at $44,070, the Scat Pack actually builds off the R/T with an even more powerful 485-hp 392-cubic-inch V8 under the hood. A beefed-up 8-speed automatic is included, as are several electronic systems aimed at improving track performance. The Scat Pack gets fitted with a larger rear axle, beefed-up suspension and steering, Brembo performance brakes, a limited-slip differential, 3.09 rear axle ratio, and the Severe Duty II upgraded engine cooling system. The Scat Pack includes Launch Control (improves acceleration from a standing stop by diminishing tire spin), Launch Assist (uses wheel sensors to minimize wheel hop that could damage the driveline), and Line Lock (activates the front brakes but leaves the rear brakes off, facilitating easier burnouts). This Charger pack is perfect for anyone’s need for speed. The Performance Pages are upgraded to SRT levels, while the speedometer goes to 180 mph. SRT configurable drive modes include Sport, Track, and Custom settings, allowing the driver to control the transmission shift times, steering feel, adaptive damping, paddle shifters, and traction control. Additionally, amenities for the Scat Pack include driver’s seat memory, heated cloth performance front seats, a heated steering wheel, and a deluxe security alarm
Package Upgrade Options
Scat Pack options include the Daytona Edition Group, Driver Convenience Group, Technology Group, and the Plus Group. Navigation and the 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system are also available. Unique to the Scat Pack is the Widebody Package that brings wider wheels, fender flares, Widebody competition suspension, adaptive damping, Brembo six-piston brakes, a performance shift indicator, and 20-inch wheels with 305/35ZR20 performance tires. The Dynamics Package adds a leather flat-bottom steering wheel, Brembo brakes, and 20-inch wheels with 275/40ZR20 all-season tires. The Carbon Fiber and Suede package adds authentic carbon fiber interior accents and a Dinamica suede headliner. Just picture yourself behind the wheel of this bad boy.
2022 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat
Starting at $74,450, the Charger SRT Hellcat and its more powerful twin, the SRT Hellcat Redeye (est. $82,000), embody the pinnacle of Dodge performance technology. These “family sedans” are like four-door sports cars, offering more power than some exotic supercars costing hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The Performance
Under the hood, the SRT Hellcat packs a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 dishing up 717 hp. The Hellcat Redeye uses the same engine but with different tuning to produce a head-turning 797 hp, making the Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye the most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world!
The Widebody package comes standard on the Hellcats, as do the six-piston Brembo brakes from the Scat Pack’s Dynamics Package. The Hellcat gets fitted with a 2.62 rear axle ratio and the Race Cooldown cooling system. The Redeye even goes a step further with a Super Chiller system that uses A/C refrigerant to cool the supercharger after shutdown and the open airbox from the Daytona Package. Now that’s a smart car for not being a “smart car.” The Hellcat also gets three-mode adaptive Bilstein shocks with setting for Sport, Track, and Auto. In Auto mode, the shocks automatically adjust to road conditions, while the Sport setting firms up the ride for better high-speed maneuvers. Track mode shifts as much weight as possible over the rear wheels, helping improve traction.
Torque Reserve helps reduce supercharger lag, while HID headlights help light up the night. Blind-spot monitoring is standard, but other driver-assists found in the Technology Package are not available to the SRT Hellcat, this trim isn’t exactly for the faint of heart!
The Interior
The SRT’s price includes a power driver and passenger seat, a power tilt/telescoping steering wheel, ventilated Laguna leather front seats, and heated rear seats. The Alcantara Package upgrades the seats to Laguna leather with suede inserts and an Alcantara-wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel. Notable options include navigation, the Harman Kardon 19-speaker audio upgrade, and Satin Black painted hood, roof, deck lid, and spoiler.
