2006 Dodge Charger Road Test Ratings

Sibling to the Chrysler 300, the Charger offers a similar package with a Dodge badge.

Hemi power is strong; handles and steers smaller than it looks.

Ride is firm and controlled, without floatiness. Passenger environment appropriately spacious though high beltline is controversial.

Average large car usability; certain controls have parts-bin look and feel.

Interior shows roots in Chrysler mainstream offerings; exterior styling draws mixed reviews.
