- Опубликовано: 3 июн 2024
- I finally get ahold of both the V6 Chevy Camaro RS and the V6 Dodge Challenger SXT and test them out to see who's faster from 0-60. This battle of the V6's is anyone's game. Who do you think will come out on top?

The power output is more than enough for most drivers. In fact, it's plenty to get most people in trouble.
It definitely is
I understand every car can hit 100mph but it’s about has fast you get there that makes it fun
@@eugeneabreut5208 perfectly said everything Mili second counts
@@eugeneabreut5208 I have a V6. And it's fast...and definitely not slow
@@LamontBoucherville that shit is NOT fast lmaooo 💀💀
If you're in the market for a v6 challenger/charger/camaro/mustang, 'which one is the fastest' shouldn't be a question you're asking. It doesn't matter what's the fastest of the slowest trims, buy the car you think is the most comfortable/best looking
Literally what I was looking for when I picked out my Challenger. I wanted AWD so an SXT was a must, and I was mostly buying it for the looks. Doesn't hurt that it has a decently fast engine in it either, but wasn't what my focus was at, I was buying it for looks and comfort. I've been driving beaters for YEARS and it was finally time to buy NEW for once.
@@BrianJNelson AWD is a huge advantage.
Camaro over all
Unless u actually want the fastest/fastest feeling car out of the v6s
@@BrianJNelson The GT models of both the Charger and Challenger also are available with AWD. Didn’t know if you realized that.
Really rare to see a base model video. Definitely something that should be done a bit more. Thanks for doing the videos no one else is willing to do. Kinda sad to know that the v6 mustang can no longer be compared though
Yes agreed .. these are the big sellers
Yeah I feel like most videos with Challegers are about Hellcats, which are fine if you are taking them to the track all the time, but when are you really going to need the kind of performance in something you drive around every day?
I like your sentence structure intelligence thank your teacher
Just went from a Charger GT to a Camaro V6 last week. Wanted an LT1 but this Camaro still moves beautifully to me.
I went from a challenger sxt to a camaro 1ss and I’m glad I made the switch since the camaro is lighter and has better technology imo
I’m sure there will be one in your future
@@fakechains2903 I had a v6 Camaro 2018 bro it’s a good car to start off with 330 hp I was able to mod it to almost 400 BUTTTT if u can ever upgrade to a SRT omggggg it’s a bigggg difference in the playground nevertheless congrats bro and RacerX love your videos bro
Nice bro i got a 2015 Camaro v6 Rs its so fun to drive and its pretty fast
@@weezeh345 yeaaaaaa bro quick yes but fast n powerful is a different conversation not to down u my g but until u drove a GT SS OR SRT/SCAT you’ll see the difference
I am 30 years old with a SXT V6 and I love it. Disappointed that they come with open deff god damn it
Same on my v6 Camaro 🤦🏿♂️ one tire burnouts not cool
Thank you for giving the v6’s love man need more of these for sure 😄
Just picked up a '21 SXT Plus AWD yesterday- my 2nd V6 Mopar; my 12 year old trade in brought me so much money I couldn't pass up the deal. Used car prices are insane around here. Got a business partner price, 2 grand from Dodge, and a really stupid amount for the old one. Yeah it's a stinkin' six, but a Go Mango Challenger looks great IMHO ! Good job as usual, Racer X !
Always great videos X! Thank you!
Thank you my friend 🤜🔥
Great review it’s a win win for sure , imo if your in the V6 market . You really can’t go wrong . Thanks for sharing Racer X . Cheers
Thank you Mike.. much appreciated
As expected, but all things considered, not really a bad showing for the Challenger.
Great vid, X! 👍🏼
I agree.. thanks buddy
i daily drive a 2011 camaro rs with standard shift 6speed,,i luv it!!!!!
glad to see this a video on v6 cars,,subscribed!
I'm leaning more towards the challenger because of the backseat space, trunk size, and it just looks incredibly comfortable. I just wish it was offered with a manual transmission.
I’m thinking the same
I never understood the purpose of the back seat when it comes to sport and muscle cars, I mean if back seat space is an importance just got for a sedan or suv.
@@selfoblivionalex6262 From the traditional design of these two cars, there is nothing else to do with that space. The cabin would require a radical redesign and it would likely need a full chassis redesign too. They would be far different looking cars as two seaters.
@@selfoblivionalex6262 the engineers at GM aren’t stupid. They put a backseat in the Camaro so they can legally sell it as a 4 seater to help reduce insurance premiums for the buyers. They know damn well those seats will never be used.
I’ve had both
And bro Camaro the way to go
Fuck backseat
You the driver lol
And Camaro trunk space is big afffff
Just the entrance to it is small
It's funny how this camaro makes more hp than my dad's 1987 928s Porsche back in the day.
Cars in the late 60s early 70s "Muscle car era" barely made 300 some a tad more and could only be driven straight.
yep exactly. Even my 2014 GMC I used to have with the 5.3 V-8 only made like 345 hp. Not far off from the V-6. And my 98 chevy 1500 Z71 with the 350 had around 260 hp lol
It’s funny how spoiled we are with our hp these days.. crazy how our expectations change over time
(RacerX) One of the most Knowledgeable and Informational Channels on RUclips guys! 🤝
Thanks buddy 🤜🔥
Great video. My driving fast and light to light racing days are behind me. All I'm interested in are looks and comfort, which is why I am buying a SXT Challenger tomorrow.
Thank you for this video! Appreciate some love for the Pentastars! My 15 300S is FBO, ScatPack wheels/ suspension, and DiabloSport tuned (Hemifever). It averages 5.6 sec 0-60/14 sec 1/4 mi, which is perfect for me for daily driving!
Awesome video comparing these 2, Im actually surprised at how little the difference was I thought the cameo would smoke it...Also I had no idea they offered a 4 banger camera...
Thank you my friend.. yes they have a cylinder turbo that makes about 50 less hp
Crazy seeing you here Jeff lol. Congrats on the challenger
Camaro will kill that boat all day long. Unfortunately this guy doesn’t realize that if you rpm to 4K while breaking you activate competition mode & launch control. The car will run 5.1-5.4 all day. I get 5.3 in my manual camaro V6. Never gotten above 6 seconds in 5 years of owning the car. Guys with basic bolt on’s & tune are getting 4.7 0-60 times.
@@mvp88camaro61 Sounds like he stalled up the Challenger but not the Camaro so not really a fair compare. Camaro should kill the Challenger
You’re my go-to guy for cars. My V6 appreciates this. Lol.
Great video and I love the respectful comments!
My 18 with some air intake mods iv seen good as 13.6 in the 1/4 mile on my draggy at 105 mph. Thats enough to embarrass most mussel cars from back in the day. Also enough to embarrass most cars made threw the 80’s and 90’s into the early 2000’s.
Bought my RS in 18 with 3000 miles for $20,000 great value.
Handling is great ride is good have 55,000 miles on it now with one issue the sunroof stopped working had to fix.
My brother in-law had a ram pickup with the 3.6 4x4 I couldn’t believe how good it felt in a big full size truck.
Great stuff as always
Thanks
You just made my day. I own the Camaro, my neighbor owns a Challenger. Always wondered who would win... :)
Great Comparison Video‼️ Came out like I thought it would...but closer than I thought it would be💯 Dodge needs to find a way to lighten up the Challengers for sure‼️✌😁
All the vehicles lol
Yes they most definitely do brother
That’s a very nice scat pack shaker in your pic, I own a 5.7 black shaker and I absolutely love it
Fairly new to your channel, and I love what I've seen so far. I appreciate you showing the v6's some love, RacerX. I daily drive a 2018 Camry, but I'm thinking about trading it for either a v6 Challenger or Camaro, or maybe a Mustang EcoBoost for my daily. I can get an ungodly amount trading my Camry right now. So videos like this are exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks again!
No worries my friend
my friend has a ecoboost mustang and hands down has the best interior out of the 3 in my opinion but i do like the looks of the challenger and how driver focused the interior is
@@mazdaspeedg2380 Yeah, I've always been drawn to Mustang's. But, I'd really rather have a naturally aspirated v6 than a turbo 4. I know, that turbo 4 puts out some impressive horsepower, and I know that Mustang's have had turbo 4's before. But still, I don't know if that would be my preference. Lot's of factors to consider...
Interior in my GT is very good. I have no complaints. With the AWD it's a blast and does trade blows with the Camaro RS. I can also get adults in my back seats comfortably, let alone my kid .... lol. The GT is really a great trim for the Challenger.
I've owned both (Camaro currently) the Camaro has speed and great handling. The Challenger has room and is great crusier. Any one of these is great daily and something to have fun in.
I’m super happy with my v6 SXT AWD first car and I’m 20 couldn’t be happier with it. Great for the NYC weather unlike some friends I have who can’t go out when it snows here
Gotta love AWD 👍
I live in 'Cuse .... lol. This is the exact reason I got my GT AWD. 16 inches of snow was nothing for my Challenger. I've played the winter rat game many, many years. I'm done with that jazz now and couldn't be happier. While the Hellcats are hibernating my GT is out tearing it up .... lol 😆
LOVE mine too! I had to have AWD for the weird weather in Indiana. I LOVE that the cockpit is driver focused.
What year is your Challenger ?
Good video X. The beard look good brother.
Lol .. thanks buddy
Keep doing v6s videos plz
Gotta spread the love to V6 owners as well
Awesome test
Love this mans vibe
Challenger for the looks and awesome comfort in driving. Seating position and the ride is excellent.
That was a cool video, now I know the Camaros got a little bit of a edge on that particular Dodge, until next time, racer X!
For sure buddy..
This speaks well for that pentastar engine. Id still love to see the turbo 4 camaro vs the challenger.
Might be a fun one as well
It goes like this!
FASTEST: MUSTANG
BEST LOOKING: CHALLENGER
BEST HANDLING: CAMARO
Sad the camaro v6 has almost the power of the underpowered 5.7 hemi and then w the weight difference I’m sure the camaro v6 would outrun the rt chally. When I had my rt charger I got beat by a stock eco boost mustang!
Great video sir!
Those eco boost are pretty cool
You have no idea what you are talking about I have a RT stock Challenger she eats V6 Camaros for lunch and keep up with Camaro SS and mustang gt 5.0 Ecoboost mustang four clyinder a joke
@@doloressalgado3427 ok. I’ve owned 2 rt chargers, a srt392 charger and a hellcat charger so yeah I don’t know about mopars and raced them all. 😳
And your stock rt that can barely run 14s is keeping up w low 12sec mustangs and Camaros 😂. If that’s true then those 5.0s and Camaros probably didn’t know you were racing them
I have an 2011 mustang. V6 3.7. Auto trans/stock converter. Ca smog legal. With a few bolt-ons and 150k miles. Engine and trans never tore apart in depth. Greatest mod was going from 2.73 to 4.10 gears. I still only rev 2200 at 65mph. It runs 12.9 at 107 with abit of spin in lower gears in full on street trim/tires/air pressures,etc. Its great fun around town and 1/8 mile. Tears up much faster cars on a short sprint. Oh fyi- stone stock ford mufflers. Im old and car is quiet. Lol makes for great fun. I do have benefit of great northern ca air.
I know this dude since 15K subs on his channel, good luck for 100K Paul
Thanks buddy.. I appreciate your support 👍
Very help full...Thanks
Well yeah, they aren't V8s, but they are both still good looking and great daily drivers. My 2014 V6 Mustang was as well. Nice Video.
Yes.. nothing wrong with the V6 trims at all
That's what I drive, it's a lot of fun, sexy looking car, and theres plenty of room for mods. Plus not 35k like a GT.
the dodge v8 iron blocks pull them down a bit in the handling dep. in addition to everything else
I used to own a v6 challenger and the best I could get was a 5.8, my brother has a v6 camaro and has a 5 flat 0-60 he also ran a 13.4 in the 1/4 mile bonestock at 106mph and can keep up with hemi challengers.
Man I keep trying to tell people this. The LGX camaros are faster than the 5.7 liter chargers and challengers.
Great video.
Great video i thought the camaro was going to win by a wider margin, since the challenger is heavier. I still love my SXT challenger handels great on the streets NYC.
Yes I thought it was a pretty solid test
5.2 is listed as camaro v6 0-60, ive got the upgraded tires, exhaust, with the rs pack in shock edition and im seeing around 5 seconds flat. It really does depend on how you drive it and what wheels/tires you are running. Not only that, chevy makes it so you cna choose your transmission, dont know what this camaro has maybe 8-speed but it also comes with 10-speed which is what i have.
Don't forget about the elevation factor. I wonder where he is doing the testing.
Thanks 🙏 amigo
Have a 2016 charger sxt myself and have no complaints about the power 💪
Gets the job done 👍
@@RacerX9 it certainly does
Nice video man! Not many people put the time or effort into these models. You do have the RS options package on the camaro. on those 0-60 runs you also stalled on the converter on the challenger you could here the RPM's before you launched which you didnt do in the camaro but the camaro would have just spun had you anyways. Love the v6 platforms from both manufacturers just wish the dodge cars were lighter.
Yep that's what I thought too. I also have this Camaro and it's closer to 5 flat zero to 60
I like base modèle testing as they often are big sellers.
Agreed 🤜🔥
Are there different transmission options there? My 2016 RS gets a reliable 5.1 sec to 100klm and sounds like its shifting a lot sharper than test model??
Hey racer X , do you think I should put a exhaust on my charger GT ? If so what would you recommend 🥴
Had a 72 charger 400 B&M shift kit. Headers, 14 inch rims from 15. Radial tires. Times were 0 to 60 6 sec-14 flat quarter at 100 mph. At 4500ft Idaho. The v6 today are very close to that. Stock the v6 today would be comparable I think .
Any hints for The 1/4 mile track taking my 1320 to the track for the first time this week
Mike
I have the dragy. It gives you both times. With our without the 1 for rollout. Good vid man.
It's the 0-60 time at the bottom. It says 0-60 (1ft)
I’m in a V6 Camaro right now. I’m a good mood today after watching this video.
Wonder how a SXT with the super track pack would do with that sport mode?
These are beautiful cars.
What you can do to the v6 money wise beats any v8. Then factor in the Camaro's weight/extra hp stock and you get a ton of fun options.
My 100% stock 2019 Challenger SXT AWD that is my year round daily driver (AWD because I live in MN) gets between 5.8 to 6.5 seconds according to the built in 0-60 screen. (I've had better (5.5), but that was on a small down hill, and I've had worse up hills or when the roads are wet, but those are not fair to count.) Hoping to get the RIPP supercharger someday to get that nice extra punch, but two sets of braces for the kids coming up this year mean no supercharger anytime soon,.
No worries brother.. I’m sure lots of other great cars heading your way in the future
Anybody ever tell you you look like a young Chuck Norris lol. Awesome video btw
i got my first 2013 rs 2 weeks ago its my first car i’m 17 y/o I love it
300 hp is a lot for a guy that had a 1980 Trans Am back in the day...that V8 only had 190 hp and I thought it was fast. 300 is fast enough.
Car & Driver and Motortrend ran a 13.8 with the V6 Camaro … very impressive 👀
That’s pretty stout
@@RacerX9 95 Z28 numbers on a good day!
i currently drive a 2004 rsx base @ 160 hp, bought new when i got my first job and had very little expenses back then. literally closing in towards 20 years now driving this car and it's a great daily with awesome gas mileage and cheap maintenance.
my next car - after i retire the rsx in a couple years - is definitely going to be an american muscle. i'll be closing into my 50's by then and don't mind paying more for gas.
additionally, with the accumulated knowledge - generally speaking - of cars gathered over the years, i'm feeling great owning a true performance car that won't break my bank.
i've come down to 3 cars that i've always loved and admired for many years - mustang, camaro and challenger. the challenger - design wise - holds a special place in my heart but i've always been a ford fan.
the camaro is probably last on my buy list but nonetheless still a highly desirable vehicle.
why don't i want to buy a japanese or european performance vehicle one may ask? i'm no car enthusiast and i don't mod cars. stock american performance cars simply have that robust, raw power to them that the japanese and european cars lack.
last but not least - comfort. american cars are just so comfortable to sit in for long periods of time. haha i am getting old.
Those penastar v6 are strong, but the GM 3.6 is badass motor, lots of engineering Into them.
Just got my brand new-to-me 5th gen v6 camaro with a manual trans. It is the vehicle im learning manual on and its just the most fun thing ever lol
each has it's pros n cons, for daily driving in traffic these do feel easier to handle vs there v8 trims ... but there's still something to be said about that V8 rumble once it turns over...
Agreed I'm actually looking to get into a Camaro for 10k less than a V8 rn the V6 should be plenty but that rumble you speak of is the exact reason I want one, the LT1 RS to be exact, V6 RS is available this year now so it's a tough decision
thats my camaro i just bought it from clay cooley in irving a month ago, i was surprised to see my car on here i could tell by the broken grille and the gum that’s on the driver side carpet
Racer X is a very attractive man, like it you agree 👍
There we go
I'm back years ago I owned a bandit trans am 6.6 and these v6 Camaros have way more horsepower than the big V8 did back then so I don't consider the 300 horsepower v6 slow at all. That was a fast car in the 70s and 80s and even the '90s
What drive mode are you in?
My rt does it in 5.0. It's not all that much faster than the v6, but the sounds is amazing and I feel like the hemis last a lot longer. They are solid engines. Not sure abut the v6 quality and durability. I would rather have a scat pack but chose the luxury options over the scan pack. I get terrible gas mileage but she's paid off, so hoping it will last for another could years. The sound is worth the rice of admission.
This really is pretty astonishing that you get to do these videos and do these things with these cars from dealerships because of legal issues and insurance red tape. I would have never imagined possible as I've worked at a few different dealerships and their management/upper management are/were wolves that would reign down fire if something went wrong vehicle on or off the lot.
Goat 🐐
🤜🔥🔥
Not the typical scenario from what I've personally seen, but nice comparison nonetheless. I have a 2018 RS V6, and have raced a few cars including a newer Charger Daytona 5.7. In those particular runs it was basically dead even overall. On the V6 Camaro I've found best results are achieved by turning off the advanced traction control and foot braking till 1500-2000 rpm, then controlling wheelspin with your right foot. Makes a huge difference in the 0-60 times. I know the on-board timer is different, but I've got a best of 5.1 a few times on stock tires.
Same. I also have a dragy and my best 0-60 is a 5.2
@@chriscole4717 Sounds like the draggy is very close to the on-board timer then. Mine also ran a best of 13.6 at 104 at the track. 9 times out of 10 a V6 Camaro will walk a V6 Challenger pretty bad, but as we all know anything can happen on the street like this
@@RC-jg2fz yep and 13.6 is exactly what I ran at the track when I first got it
@@RC-jg2fz I thought he brake boosted the challenger. You could hear it
@@chriscole4717 If he did brake boost on the Challenger and not on the Camaro, that would definitely make a big difference. Plus, as you probably know, if you brake boost on the Camaro with traction control on, it will cut power really bad. Hard to say what's really happening here, but in a completely fair comparison there is solid 1 second difference (or close to it) between these cars. I mean just go and watch videos between a V6 and 5.7 V8 Challenger/Charger, and that's how it should be when compared to the V6 Camaro, since that is a drivers race with the 5.7
Mmmm great idea. Now we just need the big 3 and there big dogs to see who’s the best
Racex..do a test on the Pedal box controls on a v6 charger or challenge
Yes that one has been on my agenda for a while now 👍
I have a 2013 Camaro as my daily drive and almost two hundred thousand miles still going strong but I also like the way the challenger looks too😊
How did you get more than 6 seconds on the Camaro? I have a v6 and never gotten more than 5.3 ??
Stud, woof 🔥.
I don't know why but I get 5.8 in challenger all the time. 🤗 very happy with it. 2020 sxt fully loaded.
Altitude and temperature..Basically the "density attitude" makes a difference all other factors constant.
Keep in mind that’s probably using the car timer which plays a part as well
My 2019 Nissan 370Z 6MT with the sport pkg puts out 332 hp at the crank and weighs about 3336 lbs. With some practice on launching it one can get about 5.0 sec for 0 to 60.
My car will out brake and out handle either of these two cars on a road course, plus my car frequently turns heads being a paint corrected and ceramic coated all black finish. I don't think I would be rushing to trade my Z in for one of these.
For the Camaro V6, never forget to bump off basic TC and double-tap that pedal off the line. Disable TC entirely and that rubber will burn like hell for no really good reason.
What do you mean by double tap that pedal?
@@porterdaniels1052Retardation.
A coworker of mine has a beautiful Camaro RS. It sounds sweet. I have a Challenger GT AWD. They are pretty equal all things considered. Both cars are a blast to have a spirited drive in. I just love the Challenger. It's got the comfort, room and looks.
I currently drive a 2020 Challenger SXT and being it my first Challenger, I enjoy it being my daily driver and it does it's job.. I have no reason to upgrade but if it happens it happens I guess. 🤷
It's the ZF 8 Speed on why the GT's and SXT's Drive so nice.
Love ❤️ my v6 Gt challenger all wheel drive 🚗 in Michigan
Hey 👋 racer x which challengers are better than The 2 rt or gt
The Challenger is my dream car.... it looks so classic and drives like a classic!
4 cyl turbo camaro vs 4 cyl turbo mustang? I dunno if that's worth a quick little test or not.
Nice 👏
So basically for better creature comfort‘s, space, and a cooler looking car get the Challenger 🤣 we already knew this.
Yeah you can be slower and drive a worse chassis in the challenger too! Have fun driving a muscle car for practicality 🤣
@@user-kl3tb4gl9b well in this particular video its about v6 muscle cars. You don’t need thr small speed difference in a v6 if you care about that get a v8 lol
That really nice quality is called "balance".
Even the mild ones got horses! Hard to choose.like them both.
When doing the 0-60, he definitely had it in tour mode. You would hear a pop when he is shifting.
i'm calling the camaro by a mile. gapplebees
Fax
From being light and having 30 more hp than the SXT??? Hell yeah lmaooo
It barely won
@@martinezt.v5343 lmao Bro screw the times. line them up and race em. The SXT isn’t fucking with the RS due to being light and having 30 more HP than the SXT. Even my 2013 Camaro RS that I used to have can beat these newer SXT that’s just sad.
@@jamalgreenfield everyone knows that, nothing new, that’s probably why racer x didn’t take that approach, my 12 year brother knows that information , nothing new, would be boring
Did you have the Challenger in sport mode with traction control off? if not your missing out.
I don't think v6's come with an option mode.
@@decadesmusiclover They definitely have sport mode and you can turn off the traction control by holding the button down for a few seconds when you start the car.
They do.
What about the V6 Mustang ? or 4 cylinder Turbo
awesome
Both are nice cars and fast, but which one has more comfort in your opinion?
Ngl even though I like challengers and chargers I think the Camaro and mustang have better “eco” trims
My nephew came by last Sunday 6-20-21 in 2021 Challenger Wide Body 392. Took it for a test ride, I can’t get one, would loose my license in 6 months for sure. And I’m 63yo. LOL
