Real Drives: 2015 Dodge Charger SXT Plus AWD V6

This time on Real Auto Reports we have our Real Drives video on the 2015 Dodge Charger SXT Plus All-Wheel Drive (AWD) V6. While the 2015 model year is mainly made up of changes to the Charger's styling, this was a good time to focus on the driving experience of the V6 AWD, especially since it is the only AWD engine option available going forward.
Join us as we discuss the driving characteristics of this 2015 Dodge Charger SXT Plus AWD with the Pentastar V6. Near $39,000, this urban compact vehicle might just make your 'must-see' test-drive list.

I really liked this review but if I had initiated a drinking game taking shots every time you said 'from a driving perspective' I might be on my way to feeling very nice right about now. I didn't count or anything it's just that my ears kept queuing in on it like "didn't i just hear that?" I"ll have to give that a try one day - Thanks for the vid.

[@AngelFlores_133]

Loved the review and the emphasis on Driver feel and perspective. Thanks for the information, I absolutely love this car.

[@seangibbs7926]

Are there other wheel options for the AWD models? The brochure would have you believe that all wheel options are available for all models at cost. However, the "build and price" tool on the site only has the odd looking "19s for the AWD Rallye. Those rims are the car equivalent of orthopedic shoes. Functional, but aesthetically challenged.

[@JahsonnM313]

That’s why I put 20” on my rallye.

Beautiful seats with tg r two tone leather

[@ReveredDead]

Big fucking car. I love it. All compact and mid size family/commoner sedans are idiots to overlook this car.

[@coleG112]

I just bought a 2009 Charger. It was advertised AWD, and as far as I know the mechanic agreed when I brought it in. But it doesn't have any badges saying SXT/SE/RT or anything, so it has to be the base model? But the base model wasn't AWD nor did it have a 3.5l V6. Nothing's matching up in this thing lol. The internet's not being ANY help.

[@Cyndagon]

+Cole Hintermeister I'm fairly certain the 1st gen of the new chargers did not come in AWD. Yours should be RWD.

[@coleG112]

+Christian Dietsch My mechanic sounded like it was AWD and the base model doesn't come with a 3.5L V6, but you're right. Nowhere ANYWHERE on the web does it say it could be AWD. Maybe it's not a 2009 lol. It does say "4drive" when I turn it on, so I know it's an AWD with a 3.5l V6. The year must be wrong.

[@coleG112]

+Christian Dietsch Its my profile pic (obviously) so maybe you could discern what year it is?

[@Cyndagon]

Unfortunately I can only tell you it'sbetween 06 and '10.

[@coleG112]

+Christian Dietsch I just went through and took the time to decode it all myself, and I'm going to check for front CV axels when I get home from a trip. Everything says it is what I thought it was. Just an anomoly.

[@Bruce_144]

Nice video!

[@boreragnarok2549]

I compare this car to an A8L . Luxury is good in this car

[@Domepeezy]

I hope your joking

[@kickerbeat]

For that price you would be crazy not to get a stripped R/T Scat Pack! Its only about $1,000 more than your tester with so much more performance!

[@oldtwins]

+kickerbeat there are some who do not need the extreme performance. this is still a capable daily driver with the v6 powertrain and is in the full luxury package to go with it that is more meaningful to some. also, you can get the v6 models with huge incentives as the lots are flooded with them, while the 392 models are somewhat rare so no bargain shopping there. so price disparity might be more like 5k difference.

[@pkranz937]

Loaded AWD SXT models can be had for low to mid 30's. Add about $5k for a loaded R/T, and $7500 for a basic Scatpack.

[@jesusbanuelos8]

would you say that it saves more gas than the v8 models?

[@pkranz937]

The 3.6 does very well on fuel. The 5.7 depends on how one drives it.

[@teshiataylor3404]

I just purchased one it is great on gas the v6

[@AChampagneWeezy]

I'm stuck between this or the RT ... Idk what to choose , I want the v8 for the sound and punch when I wanna use the power but I don't want the gas mileage

[@brokeenthusiast8861]

From a driving perspective

[@AardvarkXYZZY]

No AWD in an R/T this year it seems...?

[@JEMcgrew]

Mike Weiss You are correct. AWD is not available in the HEMI R/T in the Charger or the Chrysler 300.

[@pkranz937]

Only in the Charger Pursuit. Look for a demo, they show up from time to time.

[@AE86ofMtAkina]

+P Kranz To the police auctions I go!

[@hemi5.7awdpursuit5]

AE86 of Mt. Akina I got cop car too😭😭😭😭

[@appletylercj]

I'm so tired of watching Charger KZbin videos of people talking in the video. Let's Dukes of Hazard this shit down nasty gravel roads and push it to the limits. The way they use to do it 35-40 years ago!

Matrix Jones go watch Roadkill
