Design |
 |
Charger is pure drama on wheels, from its mean, charger-inspired headlights and aggressive crosshair grille to the race-inspired, cut off rear deck. This slightly menacing style, with a sloping fastback profile appearance, suggests the sculpted lines of a coupe, even though Charger offers four-door convenience and generous room for five passengers.

| Daytona R/T |
 |
The limited-edition Charger Daytona R/T is bold, brassy and tough, with in-your-face graphics and a street ready appearance that sets it apart. With new unique paint colours "SubLime" and "TorRed" you'll stand out in any crowd.
Up front, Daytona features a blacked-out honeycomb grille and exclusive chin spoiler, while the conspicuous hood graphic proclaims "HEMI®" to onlookers. Open the hood and you´ll find the upgraded 350-horsepower HEMI V8 engine sporting a unique engine cover with HEMI Orange accents.
The rear quarter panels feature bold graphics, a black decklid spoiler gives Daytona a race-ready look, and dual 31/2-inch bright exhaust tips let the HEMI music come rumbling out. 20-inch aluminum chrome-clad wheels shod with 245/45ZR20 All-season, Performance tires and Nivomat™ self-levelling shock absorbers help the Daytona performance suspension react with cat-like agility while still maintaining a comfortable ride.

| Daytona |
 |
If regular Charger looks and power aren´t wild enough, take a look at Charger Daytona R/T. Under that unique-looking hood, you´ll find a 5.7-litre HEMI® V8 that puts out an extra 10 horsepower (than Charger R/T), thanks to a modified intake manifold and a freer exhaust system producing a slightly more menacing growl.
When you hit the road, you´ll find Charger Daytona R/T also gives you race-bred handling with a high-performance suspension package that includes special steering gear, rear self-levelling shock absorbers, and 20-inch chrome aluminum wheels with performance tires ideal for enthusiasts drivers.

Control / Handling |
| Ride & Handling |
 |
True performance is more than straight-line acceleration, and Dodge Charger delivers world-class handling, thanks to one of the world´s most advanced suspension systems. When you´re taking a corner, you´ll appreciate road-gripping adhesion from a high upper control arm that places the upper ball joint above the tire, providing suspension articulation that helps keep the tire perpendicular to the road.
Aluminum cylinder heads with large valves and hemispherical combustion chambers create outstanding power.
- For optimal performance characteristics, Charger also features a five-link rear suspension for control you´ll instantly appreciate
- Excellent ride and handling is assured with multiple links that maintain independent control of inward and outward tilt of the wheels as well as the wheels´ direction during suspension movements
- Standard 17-in. wheels and tires offer a larger footprint for excellent grip and a smooth ride
- Charger R/T models feature 18-in. wheels and specially tuned dampers for spirited driving
|
| MDS |
 |
The 2007 Dodge Charger R/T with the 5.7-litre HEMI® V8 engine makes awesome power, but it can also be surprisingly efficient, thanks to MDS Multi-Displacement System technology that gives it fuel economy comparable to a large V6 engine.
- When you´re cruising, this ingenious system selectively deactivates half of the engine's cylinders for improved economy
- Step on the gas and you´ll get full power instantly, since MDS returns to eight-cylinder operation so quickly about 40 milliseconds that you´ll never notice it happening
- Up to 20% more fuel economy savings overall, depending on driving conditions
|
| ESP |
 |
Even the best drivers can be caught unawares by changing road and weather conditions. With Charger standard Electronic Stability Program(ESP™) * you have a computer and a number of sensors that constantly monitor the steering wheel, turning rate, lateral acceleration and brakes as you drive, to help you maintain control.
As soon as ESP senses something isn´t in balance, corrections are automatically made up to 150 times per second to apply the brakes, boost your own braking input and even close the throttle if needed, to correct oversteer and understeer conditions. |
| Traction Control |
 |
Keep a Tight Grip on the Road. The modern technology of the Charger standard all speed traction control system will help keep you moving, even when accelerating on slippery surfaces. By applying the brake to the slipping wheel and adjusting throttle control as needed, Charger can help get you through.
|
| ABS |
 |
Stops As Well As It Goes. When you have to make a fast stop, you´ll appreciate the reassurance of Charger standard four-wheel disc brakes with anti-lock (ABS) that allow you to maintain steering control, even during emergency braking situations. Unseen but effective state-of-the-art electronics ensure faster system response. When a panic situation is detected, the Brake Assist program monitors brake pressure and automatically applies maximum pressure.
|
| RWD and AWD |
 |
Our rear-wheel drive (RWD) system gives you a whole new driving experience and the confidence of maximum driver control. Our all-wheel drive (AWD) system with performance ABS brakes with traction control provides added handling ability on slippery surfaces.
- RWD technology advancements including traction control, anti-lock braking and Electronic Stability Program (ESP™) give Charger all-season capability
- Weight transfer to the rear wheels occurs upon acceleration, providing more balance and better traction while making tight turns, or during defensive driving situations
- More advanced tire technology makes RWD a great choice for four-season driving
- The ESP system for Charger SRT8 is specially calibrated to suit the vehicle's performance characteristics
The all-wheel drive (AWD) models provide added handling ability on slippery surfaces. In addition to Charger standard equipment, they include:
- Front differential
- Transfer case
- A customized all-wheel-drive front suspension
- A five-speed automatic transmission with Auto/Stick™
- Unique 18-in. wheels
- Performance ABS brakes with traction control

- The steering wheel is designed to deform and cushion the driver´s chest to help minimize injuries
- Two hydroformed coaxial tubes move relative to each other, allowing the column to move forward for enhanced energy absorption in a collision
|
| Self-Sealing Tires |
 |
Charger offers available tires that feature an additional inner liner coated with a puncture sealant. If a sharp object punctures* your tire in the tread area, this special sealant helps to significantly reduce your chance of getting a flat by filling the puncture and minimizing the loss of air pressure
- A viscous sealant in the inner liner of each tire to fill punctures up to five millimetres (0.19 inch), virtually eliminating the need to make roadside stops to change a flat
- A Tire Pressure Monitoring System is also available to give you alerts whenever a low tire pressure is detected
