The 2021 Dodge Charger R/T Scat Pack Plus may be a step down from the world-renowned Dodge Hellcat, but that should bode well for most drivers — especially casual ones. In truth, this mighty V8-powered driving machine performs on an elite level while providing comfort and ultimate satisfaction.
While this four-door prize has evolved from its muscle car roots, it remains sturdy, fast and efficient with state-of-the-art engineering and technology.
One of the most unique features on the 2021 Charger is the driver’s option to personalize his or her experience
with the all-new Drive Modes feature. With the ability to control horsepower, transmission shift speeds, steering (Charger SRT only), paddle shifters, traction and suspension, the driver’s experience can be tailored to complete satisfaction. Keep in mind, Drive Modes are pre-configured for Street, Sport, Track and default settings, but the customized setting allows plenty of wiggle room for the driver to make adjustments to their liking.
Below is a simple breakdown:
Custom – Allows the driver to personalize the vehicle’s performance.
Sport – Delivers increased vehicle performance capability over the default mode.
Track – Delivers maximum vehicle performance capability on smooth, dry surfaces.
