I have the V6 Challenger (2016 SXT Plus) and it's by no means a "slug". In fact, the "zero-to-speed-limit" performance is similar to the vehicle I sold to get this, a 2015 Mustang GT 6spd manual (Challenger is an 8spd AT).

As to the AWD on a vehicle like this: I think the issue would be the width of the tires "plowing" instead of cutting through the snow, resulting in a less-than-manageable driving experience. I recently had a 2 year lease on a 2014 Dodge Charger RT AWD with 18" stock all season tires, and while the traction was decent in slippery conditions involving less than an inch or so of snow, the car would be a challenge to steer straight ahead in any sort of accumulation of snow. The concept seems appealing--to give a reasonably sporty vehicle the ability to be used in all seasons, especially for most of us who live in areas of the country that experiences ice and snow. But I think the width of the tires will have to compromise the usual preferences by buyers who want the meaty look in exchange for practicality. That, or being forced to purchase (and store) a second set of tires and possibly rims, and if that's the case, a regular RWD model with a set of good winter tires/wheels would probably be a better option.
I see it as if you have money and you do have a v8 car then the v6 AWD it's perfect. where I live if I had a big v8 in the winter I would kill myself. I mean if you have the money to buy a 80k hellcat then you can get a 40k AWD for a daily
But that makes no sense. If the car determines you need all wheel drive then all four wheels should spin. If it's before rear wheel slip is detected that means power must be biased to the front wheels since they spin first. Edit: From what the lady said it sounds like the system can put all the power to the back, all OR front of the car. So in certain circumstances the car can be front wheel biased.
I would love a hemi un there, but most of all I would like to see a on/off switch for the AWD just for the reason that you are a better judge for the driving conditions than a computer.
I just bought one and you can trick it to go into awd or rear wheel, turn the wipers on for 10-15 seconds and awd will turn on. Turn off the car and back on, rear wheel drive kicks in
I don't know why they are only offering this in a V6. I have a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland with a 5.7 Hemi and all wheel drive (QuadraDrive II). If they could mate that system to a Hemi in a Jeep over 10 years ago why can't they do it to a Challenger now?
XM1STERX1 no v8 in and yet but it's coming. They are going to make a demon challenger with awd from srt Cherokee and put it in the hellcat. 0-60 is going to be like 2 seconds
The One and Only yeah unfortunately with the government regulations on v8 engines and epa related shit, manufacturers are forced to go away from it.. and forced to sell limited units of big engine vehicles. hopefully with the trump administration he ease these regulations and we can make muscle cars great again

Don't mind the Penestar V6, personally *though i do think it deserves a dynamic update soon* but a semi-permanent or selectable AWD system is what I would prefer over the variable system they currently use, otherwise, I am delighted to see an AWD Challenger and hope with the funds FCA can build at least a base R/T 5.7L with such a drivetrain.

(American Cars)> I hear the name GT, makes me think of a Ford. I hear SS makes me think of a Chevy. I hear SRT makes think of a Dodge. J.S..
I have to wonder if the limitation of the V6 with the AWD drivetrain is due to packaging issues with the front transaxle or perhaps some power handling issues with the setup somewhere. You'd have to think they didn't design the first iteration to be able to handle 707 HP... I'm sure if it's a hit, and they can beef up the drivetrain it'll get at least the 5.7l eventually.
Own a 2019, loads of grip, realitively stable around the corners but a good bit of body roll due to the taller ride height and 2 tonne weight. 0-60 is slow for the hp and torque, at around 6-7 seconds depending on the road conditions and launch.
Has some decent potential for aftermarket modification though, pentastar is a robust engine, drivetrain is fairly strong, and can easily be boosted to 420-450 whp semi-reliably. Suspension has some ok options in the aftermarket, but honestly it's too young of a platform to have great options yet.
It would appear to be similar to the A.M.C. / MOPAR Eagle system 1981 - 87. Except instead of being driver controlled, it's computer controlled. I hope the driver gets an indicator light to signal when the car is in ALL Wheel Drive !
Have they addressed the frameless windows freezing up in cold weather, rendering entry into the car impossible? Or the "enter n go" button on the door handle freezing and going inop? AWD doesn't matter if you can't get into the car. My '14 Challenger was the worst winter vehicle I've ever owned.
Dodge- "It's rwd biased! Except in the corners when you want to powerslide, or when you want to launch the car and need to do a burnout to warm the tires up, or in sport mode when you want that power delivery..." "Oh did we mention you have no ability to turn this feature off, short of buying a new PCM and voiding your warrenty?" Seriously wtf guys.
great option and a way to may their product more unique. they should've found away to squeeze out a little more power and maybe a little more visual flair. I have it in a 300c and it's seamless and imperceptible in operation.
I really don't care about horse power / engine capabilities etc. I've just always thought that the Challenger is such a beautiful car. The only reason why I never really considered one is due to where I live. Snow... all winter. Maybe I can now! I just need some money. lol
All wheel drive on a 2-door muscle car. The world really is changing. However, I would get into a WRX or even a Golf R before I would even consider something like this, which is never.
If there was the option of the 6.4L hemi I would be on my way to the dealer tomorrow. With the looks of the Challenger it just doesn't seem right to not have some power under the hood. I'm not even asking for the hell cat, just that 6.4L. Even the 5.7L would be tempting.
The Hellcat version of this car will be the Challenger Demon, calm down people. It's the hellcat's big brother basically. Reduced weight, rumored to be about 850 hp, AWD, body kit.
we built the first AWD Challenger in 1993, no internet so lots of people don't know about it. i worked in Chrysler performance and research. it was 340 auto with British lyland runing gear. turns out the state police in Arizona needed a police car that could catch SUVs. i think the gas shortage and our failure to develop good economy cars killed development.

Obviously you meant that the V6 is all you get with the allwheel drive. Other engines are available for rwd. But there will not be a V8 with AWD, There has been AWD Chargers for a while now and they only come with the V6 and I Doubt there is a market for V8 Muscle with AWD.
great pony car for winter season.
I wish there was all wheel drive on the camaro and the mustang .but more options then just the v6.
