Awesome review. Unless you're a 15 year old who has never owed a real car, this is honestly one of the best reviews I have ever watched. Fast enough to get you in trouble, but not so much that you can't get back out of it. Nice work...!

[@powerboatguy2308]

I think it is positioned for people who do not want the fastest car, but still like the rumble of the V8. Even if you get the Scat Pack (which I have), it is still not as fast as the Mustang GT with the 10 speed transmission, but it does look a lot better.

[@hemi5.7awdpursuit5]

Right on especially with V8 AWD that’s all I want and need in dangerous slippery icy roads up north. There’s AWD Audi with over 520 HP I might invest in. But with President Biden forcing companies to go electric I’ll have to wait and see

You ain’t lying. Sometimes of course I wish I had the extra horsies. But one thing I know about fast vehicles, even if it had the extra ponies I’d feel the same way as in I’d still want a little more. But my Rt is great. I have intake, exhaust and a tune and it’s perfect as is now.

[@Vengancejr]

These are facts. They're great and fun with the 6 speed. Looks good, sounds good and at the end of the day I can still only go about 100mph on occasion for short bursts on the highway so the extra hp isn't that essential especially since I don't track.

[@Talisman369]

The challenger RT has always been my dream car and I am lucky to finally be able to drive it. Love the fact you described it as a commuter car because it’s exactly perfect and fun for that while maintaining its muscle powerhouse presence. The demon and hellcat, although badass, are not meant to be daily drive in my opinion

[@01TA]

Nailed it! Speed isn't the only factor when laying out nearly $50k for a car that is used for daily driving, vacations, or any other purpose. Something as simple as a comfortable ride is important to many. Don't get me wrong, acceleration and speed are ultra important but I sure don't floor it every time I take it out of the garage. As much as I still love spirited driving, high school is decades behind me.

[@BlackALLucian]

[@jojosdad1359]

Just had the pleasure of having the use of a 2021 Challenger R/T on a long weekend trip with my wife to Niagara Falls, NY. We reserved a KIA Soul and she pulled in the driveway in an R/T with 10K miles. Not sure what else my gorgeous significant other may have done to get that deal but hey, who was I to ask questions? Honestly, when she first got home my first thought was " I'm going to wreck a Hemi Challenger this weekend". I heard her coming down the street, the exhaust note is glorious. It's loud AF but only if you want it to be. I showed restraint and drove like an adult, most of the time. The 27.6 mpg I got on our 1000 mile jaunt is proof. This car was blast to drive. I was thankful for the low key but beautiful Silver paint on this car but it still got a lot of attention. Plenty of power for me, I couldn't imagine the need for double the HP in a Hellcat.

[@01TA]

Solid post. Even though the R/T isn't purchased for gas mileage concerns, it is a nice feature for anyone to be able to use mid grade gas in a Hemi. The owner's manual says it and who am I to argue with Dodge engineers that built the darn thing. On a recent 200 miles trip I re-set the computer and 24.2 mpg was supposedly obtained even though I was in 'manual' 8th gear to eliminate the 4 cylinder mode. That's simply amazing to me.

Great honest review, thanks! Had 3 SRT's (one 300 and two Chargers) before I bought the 2021 Challenger R/T. I burned through tires and premium fuel and only thought I would be ever be happier with even more HP until I test drove this. Sure it's not as fast off the line, but totally agree that it's more usable all the time and the sound from the Active Exhaust is almost better than any of my SRTs plus I save over $100 a month buying regular gas! OH, and it's a lot less expensive! Way to go R/T!

[@qfiddy7107]

I bought a 5.7 R/T just as the COVID situation was unfolding for $23K w/33K miles. Only option is the 8 speed automatic. I upgraded the speakers myself and picked up fidelity and volume (the sound system was terrible, it’s now acceptable). Yes the 6.4 is faster, but it’s more expensive to buy, feed and insure. And because I didn’t spend a lot, mine is paid for. I’d rather have a paid for fast car than still owe on a faster car. Too each his own, but my advice is to buy the best you can afford, which means paying it off in 3 years. Being a gear head can break you financially if you’re not careful.

[@RILLAMAN84]

So me and my family just came back from Kentucky. While we were there, we rented a 2019 Challenger RT. My God😳…………it’s exactly what I thought it would be like. The performance did not disappoint at all. It was all blacked out just like this one. Heck, I even gave her a name, and it wasn’t even mine 😂. I named her “Blade”, for obvious reasons😁. Well for one, I just finished watching all three Blade moves🤷🏽‍♂️. Needless to say, it was definitely a wonderful experience for me personally. I told my wife, I need that car in my life 🥰. The Challenger has ALWAYS been my dream car. This one has just enough power for me. I had it just for the weekend😩. Returning her was so heartbreaking. My time is definitely coming. I’ve been waiting to own one for far too long now. Since 2008, right around the time my daughter was born. So I clearly couldn’t get it then, but I’am definitely getting close. Both my kids LOVE the sound, and the power behind it. Definitely a beautiful car.

Great review Mr. Hardy. I've had my Octane Red '21 R/T Blacktop w/automatic for 13 months now, and can tell you that I am still in love with everything about it. I call her "Whitney" because she is beautiful and sounds amazing, [Whitney Houston reference for the young kids out there]. I've been through a few cars in my 35 years of driving, and Whitney is my favorite by far. A couple of quick added bonuses to point out that I appreciate: The 5.7L V-8 Hemi engine has VVT and what Dodge calls MDS, [Multi Displacement System] which cuts cylinder usage from 8 to 4 when the Challenger is cruising. Saves a little fuel. Also the instrument menu has a 0-60 mph timer which I've had fun with. It took a few tries, but I finally recorded a 5.1 second 60, [optimal]. The tires will slip if conditions aren't perfect. Lastly, the car is roomy when compared to its competition. I am 6'6", 230 lbs and find it to be very comfortable allowing for long cruises without complaint. I will check out a few more of your reviews, you have a new fan.

Nice pleasing video. Good job! I bought a new 2020 R/T Shaker last November and it is plenty fast. More power is really unneeded unless you race. It's that simple. Did you know that the R/T with it's 5.7 Hemi has similar 0-60 and 1/4 mile numbers as the 426 Hemi in the 1970 Challenger?? Look it up if you don't believe me. The info is everywhere. YES< the R/T is fast enough.

[@capricetony]

How is your Shaker? How long it take to order?

[@01TA]

@@capricetony I really like it. The Shaker package was a $2,595 option and it included many other cosmetic features. I also have the PLUS package which was $3,195 and the Performance Handling Group at $1,595. It all adds up but what a car! Back to your question: The looks are worth every penny to me. The only minor downside is needing to remove the Shaker for oil changes or adding any oil. 4 easily removed fasteners take it an extra few minutes, but no big deal to me. I was fortunate to find the exact car I wanted in Go Mango with all the performance options sitting on a lot just 200 miles from me. I'm hearing 3 - 4 months for ordering new cars. I have no first hand experience with that however.

Rented a 2022 Challenger RT for a week. Pros: engine sound and power, responsive 8 speed automatic transmission and I usually prefer stick shift cars , huge trunk , rear seats have room for adults vs competition, very responsive brakes and handling. Cons: terrible gas mileage over 1 week averaged 13.7 MPG in Florida stop and go with ac running. High of 16.8 mpg in my 7 days. Actually ran out of gas once as it has a tiny reserve tank and low fuel light comes on too late to be useful. Overall, it was an awesome car to rent but the horrible fuel economy would make me think twice. Wasn't flooring it all the time either , driving style didn't seem to improve mpg in the city much at all.

So true with ANY car, but with 'muscle' cars you have to be concerned even more with the 'abuse' factor. If buying used, try to get a one owner Challenger from an older dude that rarely floored it, just used it for cruising and car shows.

As someone who is not from the USA can you tell me from the MSRP of $46,980 what is the final cost to drive out of the dealership all up.

[@01TA]

I realize this is a little late but it depends what dealer you buy the car from and if there are rebates available too. During this current 'chip' shortage I hear that many dealers are getting FULL sticker MSRP for the cars plus any dealer 'add-ons' they might include. Also every state has taxes and they are different. You might have to add 3% and up depending where you live, then you have tag/title fees which are in the neighborhood of several hundred dollars. Timing is important and I can relay my own experience last November 2020 when I bought my new 2020 that listed for $48.550. FCA (Stellantis now) had a $3,000+ rebate going on AND the dealer in Georgia where I bought my R/T was offering another $3,000+ off the sticker. I 'saved' over $6,000 BUT then I added on an extended warranty for $2,500. You can see how every person will pay a different amount for their car. I hope this helped a bit.

Do these modern R/T's compare? No way as they are LIGHT YEARS better and even faster. The R/T speed numbers are just about equal to the 426 Hemi in the old 70's Challengers. If you don't like those impressive 0-60 or 1/4 mile times, then yeah, the Scat is even quicker and blows away anything from the Mopar past. No need to mod anything unless it's your thing to do.

am i the only one that finds the sound it makes when it turns on satisfying

[@01TA]

You are NOT alone. The stock exhaust note is amazing!!

[@Treywhitley]

Excited for my car tomorrow

[@Sumbuddysumwhere]

I own one of these and its plenty fast enough as long as you don't want to race anyone and actually win. If you want a masculine car that sounds great especially with some performance mid mufflers or catback exhaust and is fun to drive on back roads while at the same time not caring that mustangs and camaros will eat you for breakfast then this is the car for you. I love my RT its a blast to drive I have 0 regrets buying it other than I should of bought one sooner.

What dealership is this? This looks like state street in utah

[@Stufftowatch21]

Car looks great sounds great & it’s V8

[@youredownbad]

Can’t wait to get mine

[@Marcus51090]

I’d they did the charger in 2 door I’d buy that, I’m so torn between charger and the challenger

[@yxngmigo]

i’ll be getting one soon hopefully by the end of 2024

[@dvillanueva524]

It should be called SRT package

[@juanguerrero3756]

I'm just curious if you would come to Dallas to review a hellcat redeye widebody in October?

[@genapazilli6674]

Lol. Love that sound❤️❤️❤️

I’ll wait for prices to drop 😭 used cars are ridiculous

[@iridiumoxide.5273]

I ordered a RT Shaker in 2019 and I am glad I didn't get the 6.4. Don't need 91 octane, uses the same oil as my truck becauseit is 99% the same. It's a truck motor for christ sake unlike the 6.4 car engine.

[@stevensmith8648]

Alcantara! Yeah baby!

[@631strongislandkid]

I want one! I have a chrysler 300 v6. The scat will cost me $266 a month insurance.

[@stevemass8523]

I am about to BUy one so close ! Wish me luck guys

[@milesaway3699]

Did you get it??? This car is better than women.

[@ccgamergirl]

Dose it have Bluetooth?

[@nmrailrunner1088]

As a 19year old my challanger RT is enough for me it's a fun car to have fun in but not fast enough to get killed.

[@kenn-fucius]

Crazy I was like dang that looks kinda like the road by Sandy Costco then I was like oh damn it’s south town so it is 😂

[@rosalinqcruz6346]

Beautiful car.

[@LamontBoucherville]

Yes it's ridiculous fast

[@Sir_Galahad777]

I have one and these cars need to all have wider wheels and tires on the back

[@01TA]

Yes, they do need them. 0-60 launches are tough without wheel spin. I still have not driven mine in the rain either (bought my R/T last November) and I'm sure the traction will be so-so whenever I do hit some rain.

[@epicdogsrock797]

@@01TA I have an 11 R/T AWD with 275s all the way around and in the rain it’s still a little sketchy. But the AWD definitely helps with the 0-60

[@jeffreynye3019]

You get line lock on a standard 5.7 R/T?

[@artlikepicasso]

Yup

[@Patrick-gl4lu]

Not on standard models , I believe you need the performance package for line lock. I have a '21 Plus that has launch control, but no line lock

[@marcosrod7260]

@@Patrick-gl4lu what does the line lock do?

[@capricetony]

Ben, you work at a Dodge Dealer, when can I order a 2022, Challenger RT Shaker?

[@Basslightning666]

You won't be disappointed... I've owned my 2020 RT Plus Shaker for a year now, it is intoxicating to drive...

[@hotballer02]

On this year model is it still an open diff or those it have the scat pack diff because I have one and I hate the open diff bs

[@frankhellwig6405]

The Performance Handling Group ($1,595) gives you the 3.09 LSD. I optioned that on my RT and it makes a big difference in terms of responsiveness. That package also gives you a lot of other goodies such as the Bilstein high-performance suspension and line lock.

[@shannonandsheila1403]

​@frankhellwig6405 Yeah man my 22 has that I dont know why anyone wouldnt want that it is stealing for what dodge charges

I'm getting one in 2023 GOALS

Did you stuff the salesman in the trunk? 😀

It may be some loose axles or a loose bolt nut somewhere near the tire mounts.
