Used 2022 Dodge Charger for sale 

There will be plenty of trims and engines available in-between with options like AWD.- KBB

The Dodge Charger is available in six trims: SXT, GT, R/T, Scat Pack, SRT Hellcat, and SRT Hellcat Redeye. The prices of the 2022 Charger lineup have gone up by nearly $1,000 trim to trim when compared to last year.  Dodge offers the current Charger model in plenty of trims (six) and engines available in-between with options like RWD or AWD, appearance packages, and driver-assistance tech features.

Before we miss out, one thing that customers should note is the fact that the base SXT trim with RWD and the 3.6-l unit comes with 292 hp and 260 ft-lbs. of torque. While all the other trims and configurations get 300 hp and 264 ft-lbs of torque producing 3.6-l V6 motors.

The Dodge Charger is a mediocre offering in its lower variants. The muscle car suddenly turns pony with a V6 and a much sportier chassis. Nevertheless, it still packs all of its brawn in its powertrain, and the base V6 engine offers the most reasonable fuel economy you can ask for across the engine options. It obviously doesn’t help when you sell a variant capable of emptying its gas tank in minutes.

The lower variants of the Dodge Charger are easy to maintain, effectively priced, and offer everything that a full-size sedan should. For added comfort and convenience the more luxurious Chrysler 300 is available, and if that doesn’t do it for you, might as well check out rivals. The Dodge Charger has its ups and downs but remains as balanced as can be in lower variants.

The 2022 Dodge Charger carries forward the same engine and transmission configurations from 2021 with four engine options: a 3.6L naturally aspirated V6 that makes 292 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque, a 5.7L V8 that makes 370 hp and 395 lb-ft of torque, a ginormous 6.4L V8, that makes 485 hp and 475 lb-ft of torque, and a 6.2L Supercharged V8 that makes a mind-numbing 717 hp and 650 lb-ft of torque or an even higher 797 hp and 707 lb-ft of torque, depending on your preferences.

Apart from buying costs, the Dodge Charger engine options bring about some high operating costs, in every form except the Base variant V6. The SRT and Redeye variants go toe to toe against some of the most performance-minded vehicles available in the market, while the same chassis housing a V6 offers daily usability. The base V6 engine accelerates the current Dodge Charger from 0-60 mph in just 6.4 secs. The regular sedan covers a quarter-mile in only 14.8 seconds, which proves its American Muscle stature. 

The Charger R/T can do a 0-60 mph lap in about 5.5 seconds while the Charger Scat Pack can do it in 4.3 seconds. The Charger Hellcat can sprint to 60 mph in just 3.6 seconds and the nearly 800 hp Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye is the quickest of the lineup. The Redeye takes the same 3.6 seconds as the Hellcat, and it'll sprint a quarter-mile in 10.6 seconds ( only 0.36 seconds faster than the Hellcat). It also has a top speed of 203 mph.

While the SXT and the GT variant can be had with all-wheel-drive as well, the rest of the V8-powered Chargers are only available with rear-wheel-drive.  The Kia Stinger is clearly the most performance-inclined vehicle in the lineup, offering sporty but balanced handling along with its powerful powertrain. The two combine to make the Stinger the fastest among the four from zero to sixty. The Toyota Avalon and its horsepower are enough to overcome the drawbacks of FWD and beat all RWD-based vehicles, getting from a standstill to 60 in 6 seconds flat. The larger engines show their muscle over a quarter-mile, with the Charger finishing within 2 tenths of a second of the Avalon and Stinger times.

The Charger is definitely not the car you buy for fuel economy.- Edmunds

As a result of an engine seemingly set at a lower tune, the regular Dodge Charger delivers fuel economy that is on par with its rivals. The V6 equipped Charger returns 19 MPG in the city, a respectable 30 MPG on the highway, a decent 23 MPG when driven combined.

The 18.5-gallon fuel tank can take you a maximum distance of 555 miles, given that you are sedate with the throttle. If you opt for any of the V8 engines, the fuel economy ratings drop significantly. The Hellcat trims with more than 700 hp engines return the worst fuel economy, earning 12 mpg in the city and 21 mpg on the highway.

The FWD Toyota Avalon makes use of its drivetrain architecture and weight characteristics to return a combined fuel economy of 26 miles per gallon, topping off the full-size sedan class, followed by the Kia Stinger at 25 miles per gallon. At 23 miles per gallon, the Charger isn’t all that far behind, but it’s worth mentioning that the V6 is by no means the most popular engine choice in the Charger.

The interiors remain mostly unchanged for the 2022 Charger sedan. The entry-level variant feels quite bare and bones as compared to the higher trims, but they too lack in the quality department, as you wouldn’t expect hard plastics at a price point of more than $73,000, irrespective of the exclusivity of the powertrain. Although equipped with all the regular amenities, the interior feels a little cramped and low on comfort.

Moreover, there is a subtle lack of finesse that wouldn't have been a problem if the materials used across the cabin weren't suited for longevity and function over form. However, there are enough storage spaces placed around to store your knick-knacks. The vehicle comes standard with a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Higher trims can also be had with an 8.4-inch touchscreen display and an 18-speaker Harman Kardon premium sound system.
