The Dodge Challenger has remained one of America’s most cherished muscle cars for more than 40 years. Many drivers have fallen in love with the big coupe’s retro styling and exhilarating performance. Unlike some of the other cars in its class, the 2016 Dodge Challenger actually features a roomy backseat. This means that your friends and family can ride along without feeling cramped. A five-star safety rating makes it an even more fulfilling choice.
The new Challenger is available in a variety of different trim packages. If you are looking for an exceptional performance bargain, take a good look at the sporty R/T model. Let’s take a look at how the R/T trim compares to the R/T Plus trim.
Both trims come equipped with Dodge’s legendary Hemi engine. The 5.7L engine kicks out an exciting 375 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque. When accelerating from a standstill, the Challenger can hit 60 mph in a brisk 5.7 seconds. You can choose either an eight-speed automatic transmission or a six-speed manual gearbox. The coupe’s 25-mpg fuel economy rating is impressive when considering its performance capabilities. You can also take advantage of the Challenger’s composed handling. Whether you are commuting to work or cruising along a curvy back road, the Challenger R/T is destined to keep you entertained.
The 2016 Dodge Challenger’s old-school appearance sets it apart from the competition. At first glance, onlookers may not notice any major differences between these two trims. LED Halo running lights give the Challenger an especially cool appearance. Like the rest of the lineup, the Challenger R/T features a dual-outlet exhaust system. A set of 20-inch alloy wheels accentuates the coupe’s intimidating road presence. Some of the special paint colors include Plum Crazy, Reline Red, and Jazz Blue. Hood stripes are available as an option. Unlike the standard R/T model, the Challenger R/T Plus comes standard with fog lights.
Because of the Challenger R/T’s long list of standard features, it is considered to be among the top values on the market. While the rear-view camera provides enhanced visibility, the key-less ignition system enables you to quickly fire up the engine. The Challenger R/T Plus provides you with additional creature comforts. Equipped with an 8.4-inch touch-screen display, the popular Uconnect system won last year’s Infotainment System of the Year? award. Meanwhile, ventilated front seats provide you with an elevated degree of comfort on hot days. Some of the other upgrades found on the R/T Plus model include leather upholstery, smartphone app integration, a power-adjustable steering wheel, and satellite radio.
As you can see, both the Challenger R/T and the Challenger R/T Plus bring a lot to the table. While both trims offer the same thrilling performance and eye-catching styling, the Challenger R/T Plus rewards you with a bit more luxury.
