2019 Dodge Charger Gallery

By Chris Davies/June 28, 2018 9:36 am EST

Dodge's venerable Charger is getting some performance and tech upgrades for the 2019 model year, including a new drivetrain option and an even more aggressive Hellcat. The 707hp Charger SRT Hellcat now gets Launch Control as standard for the fastest drag racing, together with Line Lock. That holds the car in place with the front wheels, but leaves the back wheels to spin smokily.

The same features are shared by the 2019 Charger R/T Scat Pack, which may have less power but still starts at under $40k. It has a new Houndstooth cloth interior option, along with the option of Bilstein three-mode Adaptive Damping Suspension. Those wanting more traction, mind, now have a new all-wheel drive option.

That's the 2019 Charger SXT AWD. It combines a V6 and all-wheel drive, with 300 hp and 264 lb-ft of torque. It can automatically decouple two of the wheels for economy and traction needs. All of the new 2019 Charger models will go on sale in Q3 2018.
