With a massive Hemi motor, a performance-tuned suspension and vintage-inspired good looks, the Challenger SRT8 392 is the range-topping model in Dodge's Challenger muscle car lineup. Though not quite as nimble as some rivals, the SRT is still quite enjoyable to exercise on backroads while also being a comfortable long-distance cruiser.
The heart of the SRT8 392 is a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 with 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. The latter figure is 90 lb-ft better than the Challenger's previous engine, adding a welcome kick in the pants to the straight line acceleration department. In fact, the SRT8 392 can scoot from a dead stop to 60 miles per hour in under five seconds.
If quarter mile races are more your thing, know that this coupe can run the quarter in mid 12's with the automatic transmission, or high 12's equipped with the row-it-yourself gearbox. New for the latest model is a launch-control system that spins the engine to optimal launch rpms, then manages wheelspin once underway for the quickest acceleration possible. Top speed is an impressive 182 in the manual and 175 with the automatic.
With all that power and displacement fuel economy is obviously not the primary concern of the vehicle's engineers, but it wasn't forgotten either. Both transmissions will return 14 city mpg, while the manual bests the automatic by one mpg for a highway rating of 23.
Speaking of transmissions, it should be known that the manual found in the 392 is no five-speed, but a six-speed TR-6060 Tremec unit with a dial-disc high performance clutch - the same one tested to the limits in the 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10.For those more interested in cruising than racing, the automatic comes in five-speed flavor that includes both "Normal" and "Sport" modes. Sport mode will keep the transmission in the gear a bit longer, maximizing power at the cost of efficiency.
Dodge upgraded the Challenger SRT8 392's suspension for the latest model year, adding an improved version of the active damping system that includes three different settings that either optimize on-road comfort or handling responses.
Keeping the SRT8 where it should be are either 20x9 forged aluminum in a seven-spoke design or 20x9 forged aluminum wheels with satin black painted pockets, either wrapped in Goodyear RSA all-season tires as standard. Optional are Goodyear F1 Supercar three-season tires that kick the performance up a notch at the expense of longevity and wet handling. Behind those wheels are 14.2-inch front and 13.8-inch rear vented and slotted rotors being grabbed by Brembo four-piston fixed calipers finished in red, of course.
Other model-specific exterior styling cues include '392 HEMI' badges, quad exhaust outlets, a new front spoiler and a body-painted rear decklid spoiler.
Despite a recent update, the cabin is slightly behind the times in terms of material quality and technology. There are plenty of hard plastic surfaces to be found, and the Uconnect infotainment system is a generation behind the slick unit found in newer Chrysler products. Still, there's a surprising amount of space inside - including enough room for adults to lounge in the rear seats - and the pistol-grip manual shifter adds an appealing retro touch.
Standard and Optional Features
Standard features include leather upholstery, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a 276-watt Boston Acoustics sound system, a Uconnect CD/HDD/DVD entertainment system with a 6.5-inch touchscreen display, automatic climate control, Bluetooth smartphone connectivity and more.
SRT8 Core
A new SRT8 core model caters to budget-minded Mopar performance fans by delivering all of the standard coupe's performance but deleting some content (or substituting less expensive bits) to achieve a lower price.
The SRT8 Core features a unique blacked-out appearance, including a black grille, rear spoiler and"392" logos on the front fenders. Twenty-inch cast-aluminum wheels with black painted pockets and black Brembo brake calipers are also part of the package.
To help bring the price down, the Challenger SRT8 Core trades the leather upholstery of up-level SRT models for "Ballistic" cloth seating surfaces with dark slate gray bolsters and door panel inserts. There are also no fog lights, the HID headlights have been replaced with halogen units, and the adjustable suspension and been swapped out in favor of a single-mode Bilstein setup,
Occupant Safety
All Charger SRT8 models come standard with dual front, front side and side-curtain airbags in addition to a driver's knee airbag and traction and stability control systems.
Key Competitors
As the range-topping model in the Challenger lineup, the SRT8 392 competes against powerful rivals like the 650-horsepower Ford Shelby GT500 and the 580-horsepower Chevrolet Camaro ZL1.
As it stands, the 2013 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392, powered by the 6.4-liter Hemi V8 produces 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet. Clearly, it wouldn’t take much tweaking to take the 392 Hemi’s power past that of the Z/28. Add some unforgiving suspension, remove the radio, and add some lightweight components and SRT has a competent Camaro Z/28 competitor on its hands.

2014 Dodge Journey Crossroad
Thu, 17 Jul 2014Watchers of the auto industry will notice a theme among the formerly bankrupted American automakers, General Motors and Chrysler. There are the post-bankruptcy vehicles, and the pre-bankruptcy vehicles. The former, in the case of Chrysler, include the Jeep Grand Cherokee, as well as the 200 and 300. For GM, there's the Cadillac ATS, Chevrolet Impala and Buick Encore, among others. These vehicles have the freshest styling, with sharp exteriors and well-crafted interiors, as well as advanced powertrains and well-sorted chassis.
As for the pre-bankruptcy vehicles, they tend to be easy to spot. Most suffer from inferior driving dynamics, cheaper interiors, poorer fuel economy and often homely looks (we know, there were some decent cars before the bankruptcy, but they were pretty heavily outweighed by the bad ones). Think late, last-generation Chevrolet Impala or Chrysler 200. Increasingly, though, we're seeing vehicles that split the balance between pre- and post-bankruptcy. Vehicles like the Dodge Journey.
The Journey debuted in 2007 as a 2008 model year vehicle, meaning it should fall into the latter category. But heavily breathed upon in 2011, it now enjoys a new, 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, a big, critically acclaimed touchscreen display and in the case of today's tester, a new-for-2014 Crossroad spec.

Chrysler recalling 644k more Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee SUVs over brakes
Wed, 02 Apr 2014Early last month, we reported on Chrysler issuing a preemptive, proactive recall for about 25,000 units of the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango. The issue revolved around a brake system that wasn't causing any actual problems, but delivered an unsatisfactory brake feel, so Auburn Hills called in a good 25,000 of SUVs around the world, including 18,700 in the United States.
Now Chrysler, having apparently determined that the brake problem on its sport utes is actually much bigger than it initially realized, has drastically broadened the scope of the recall. As a result, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for precisely 655,354 examples of the Grand Cherokee and Durango, covering the 2011 through 2014 model years. In addition, Chrysler is recalling 42,380 units in Canada, 21,376 in Mexico and 159,685 overseas.
The problem which Chrysler found revolves around the brake booster, whose center shell has been found to be subject to corrosion, allowing water to get into the brake system. That water in turn could freeze, preventing the brakes from working as well as expected.
