Dodge Challenger Driving Experiences

The fourth in their third generation of models under the Challenger name, and first produced in 2011, the Dodge Challenger makes a respectful nod in the direction of the classic design and livery of the original 70s muscle car classic, but gives it a modern, updated feel to leave you under no illusion that you’re driving a muscle car of the present day.

With a new chin spoiler at the front to create more of a down force, under the bonnet lies a brand new 6.4 litre HEMI OHV V8 engine, humming out 470 bhp to really get any self respecting petrolhead’s engine running.

Its blisteringly fast performance is just as impressive once you take it out to the track, accelerating from 0 - 60 mph in a rapid 3.8 seconds, with an achievable top speed of 176 mph.

The 2011 Dodge Challenger saw several other upgrades besides the new V8 engine. It also came kitted out with broader wheels, new suspension geometry and tuning, electro-hydraulic power steering, plus the option to upgrade it with Rallye or Super Sport packages to turn it from a car of the road to one of the circuit tracks.

The Challenger’s closest rivals in the modern day muscle car arena are the fifth generation Ford Mustang and fifth generation Chevrolet Camaro. At DrivingExperience, we offer the Dodge Challenger and many other great muscle cars to book for fantastic driving experience days at many great locations and venues across the UK.
