In this era of electrification, it might surprise you to know muscle cars are not only still a thing, but they're better than ever. While the Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang have added more handling prowess to their repertoire, the big-boned Dodge Challenger is still all about horsepower and customization. It remains the truest incarnation of the classic early 1970s muscle car.
That's not to say the Challenger isn't modern. It offers a host of advanced driver safety aids along with one of the best infotainment systems on the market. It can even be had with all-wheel drive and ventilated seats. But all that modernity doesn't take anything away from its street cred. If you check the right boxes, you can have your Challenger with a nearly unbelievable 797 horsepower, a Widebody kit and steamroller-esque tires. And then there's the personalization options — wild paint colors, graphics packages and various styling add-ons to ensure you and your Challenger will always get attention. If you want absurdity, you can always take it up a notch to the new 807-horsepower drag-racing machine dubbed the SRT Super Stock.
Certainly, the Camaro and the Mustang have broader performance résumés. Their V8 engines provide loads of power and sound great. The Camaro and Mustang are also a bit easier to maneuver than the hulking Dodge and return mildly better fuel economy. But Dodge is right to be proud of the latest Challenger since it offers an unmatched combination of power, comfort and convenience. There's nothing quite like the Challenger, and that fuels much of its appeal.
Performance
The Dodge's beefy size makes in-town maneuvering a bit tough, but it's a champ out on the open road. The Challenger is pretty capable on curvy roads too. Well, as long as you don't try driving it like a nimble sports car. Its mass and weight become readily apparent if you try to drive quickly through tight turns.
Comfort
Dual-zone climate control is standard on the R/T and it maintains the desired cabin temp well. The climate is controlled via the touchscreen or knobs and buttons directly behind the shifter. Our test car had the optional heated and ventilated front seats. The seat heating works well but the ventilation could be more effective.
Interior
Dual-zone climate control is standard on the R/T and it maintains the desired cabin temp well. The climate is controlled via the touchscreen or knobs and buttons directly behind the shifter. Our test car had the optional heated and ventilated front seats. The seat heating works well but the ventilation could be more effective.
Technology
Voice controls use an easy-to-learn structure and accept basic commands for the audio, navigation and hands-free calling. Connecting your smartphone makes things even more familiar. The Driver Convenience package adds blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert. They worked well during our test without false alerts.
Storage
There's decent small-item storage throughout the cabin, but the cupholders are right behind the gearshift, which is somewhat problematic with a manual transmission. The door pockets are small, with small bottle holders up front. In coupes this size, space is at a premium, but the Challenger uses what it has relatively well.
Fuel Economy
Value
The Challenger's interior build quality is solid, but the quality of the materials becomes less appealing the higher you go up the trim ladder. By the time you're into Hellcat territory, it'll be obvious that you're paying for a big motor, not an exquisite interior design.
Wildcard
Which Challenger does Edmunds recommend?
2020 Dodge Challenger models
The 2020 Dodge Challenger is a five-passenger, two-door coupe available in five primary trim levels: SXT, GT, R/T, R/T Scat Pack and SRT Hellcat. Rear-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is available on SXT and GT trims.
The SXT starts with a 3.6-liter V6 engine (303 hp, 268 lb-ft of torque) matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission. You get a decent number of standard features, including keyless entry and ignition, a power-adjustable driver's seat, and Dodge's Uconnect infotainment system with a 7-inch touchscreen and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto.
The GT dresses things up a bit with styling cues taken from the V8-powered trim levels. It retains the powertrain found in the SXT and adds upgraded interior trim, remote start and rear parking sensors. All-wheel drive is optional for the SXT and the GT.
The R/T is similarly equipped to the GT, but it ditches the V6 engine for a 5.7-liter V8 (372 hp, 400 lb-ft) and comes standard with a six-speed manual transmission. An eight-speed automatic is optional.
The R/T Scat Pack ups the power ante with a 6.4-liter V8 (485 hp, 475 lb-ft). It also comes with more standard features such as an 8.4-inch touchscreen, heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and performance software upgrades such as launch control.
At the top of the food chain lies the SRT Hellcat. There's a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 (717 hp, 656 lb-ft) and either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic transmission to dole out the power. Dodge also adds larger brakes, exterior styling changes and an adaptive suspension to the mix of standard equipment.
But wait, there's more! The SRT Hellcat Redeye package raises the Hellcat's power output to 797 hp and 707 lb-ft and comes solely with an eight-speed automatic. Still want more? OK, check out the SRT Super Stock. It puts out 10 more horsepower than the vaunted Redeye and also comes standard with the Widebody kit, lightweight Brembo brakes, a revised suspension and gripper tires for better drag-racing performance.
All Challengers are available with a myriad of options, including graphics packages, hood scoops, leather seats, audio upgrades and driver aids. The Widebody kit, which adds, among other upgrades, wider fenders to accommodate wider wheels and tires, is available for the R/T Scat Pack and Hellcats.

Should I lease or buy a 2020 Dodge Challenger?
Is it better to lease or buy a car? Ask most people and they'll probably tell you that car buying is the way to go. And from a financial perspective, it's true, provided you're willing to make higher monthly payments, pay off the loan in full and keep the car for a few years. Leasing, on the other hand, can be a less expensive option on a month-to-month basis. It's also good if you're someone who likes to drive a new car every three years or so.
