Dodge Challenger R/T Review + Drive | Is the 5.7 GOOD ENOUGH?

I had lots of fun reviewing this 2019 Dodge Challenger R/T! I especially love the sound, looks, and the fantastic transmission. The 5.7 is a great entry-level V8, but I think it is worth it to save for a Scat Pack.

You are having an awful lot of fun for someone that would prefer a Scat Pack. As the owner of a 2020 R/T I have ZERO need for more horsepower. This thing is extremely quick with 0-60 and 1/4 mile times extremely close to the original 1st generation Challenger with the 426 or 440 engines. It's all documented in any internet search. If I was into racing or track use, then yeah, get the Scat or Hellcat. All this fun and enjoyment for a true muscle car that runs on 89 octane (owner's manual).

My brother had an R/T. It still has all the character and sound of the higher end models. It just makes more sense to get a scat because the price difference is not much.

I love my RT Shaker

[@jasonyoung3690]

I bought a 2023 Challenger R/T+ Last Call in Sublime Green, with six-speed Tremec and a sunroof. It's a plus model, so it has a few creature comforts, with the only thing really extra is the sunroof. It has the same hood and wheel package as this white car in this vid, and I like it more than a shaker, as for me, that's just for show and no go added, and mine is surprisingly quick, and I'd say it's just as quick as a Scat-pack R/T in the 1/8th mile run, but not a winner against it in the quarter mile. The 345 (5.7) is definitely a more modifiable candidate than any of the other faster, bigger engine car and much more expensive MoPars, and you can add mods over time that you can afford rather than paying up front for a showroom queen with huge mark-ups for this Last Call year. I bought mine because I wanted the opportunity to modify it without ruining its value, something that you won't be able to do to a Hellcat RedEye or Demon 170. My first project will be opening up the exhaust with a cat-back double x-pipe straight pipes and quad tips, then I'll possibly get a 4-disc Brembo system if I can find one for a reasonable price. Next year, the Whipple S/C and beefier clutch plate assembly will get all of my yearly budget for mods in 2024. I will always be looking for good used parts from upper level MoPars like suspension pieces or body mods that can be added without too much fuss. Maybe more in future years, I just don't know, but when the warrantee expires, that will open lots of doors for future mods.

[@pnw_dragon7164]

We just had a 2021 R/T 5.7 as a rental this week. It was a lot of fun-really made the trip if I'm honest. We just kept saying it sounded ANGRY. I agree with JVette01 about the shift points-it downshifts pretty aggressively at about half-throttle, maybe a third even. So you get a lot of grunt-and attitude-whenever you give it even a little skinny pedal. My DD is a RWD GS350 on 19s, with adjustable steering, damping and the usual throttle mapping and transmission adjustments. While the GS is more athletic in the twisties, and only a little slower, the Challenger was so much fun to drive. Much smiling and a good deal of laughing. A guys trip, so we could hoon a bit-and we did. And I just love the way it looked-all black with that hood scoop and splitter-those headlights and grill. Maybe the interior is middling, but...I'd totally rent another one. Might even buy one...

Nope that is stock. I rented one of these back in 2019 and they sound just as loud. The active exhaust is what gives it that deep sound. It used to be exclusive to the Scatpack and higher models but Dodge got smart and put it in all their V8 models. 😁

I'm 70 years old, meaning I was 18 in 1971. I saw Challengers, Chargers, Cudas, Roadrunners on a daily basis. The 426 Hemis were rather scarce compared to 383 and 440 engines. The old 426 Hemi engines are completely different than these new ones, not the same at all. The newer Hemis particularly the 5.7 rated at 375 horsepower is not that strong an engine. I know because I've owned several Challenger R/T's with the 5.7. They don't pull as hard as 1970 Challenger with a 383 either. My guess is the real horsepower rating of the 5.7 is more like 350.
