Challenger V6 is now at 305 HP
It took them long enough, They finally shoved the pentastar in the Challenger.. and it's only 78 lb heavier than the Camaro.. Chrysler really need to hurry up with those 8 and 9 speed transmission's

Those weights seem off. The mustang I thought was 3500 and the challenger was over 4K.

At least its competitive. Unfortunately its still down a bit on power, and down a bit on torque, and up a bit on weight. It will be interesting to see how close it comes to the Camaro for performance and fuel economy. I'm guessing it will be a tick or two behind for each.

I just don't understand how the V8 weighs 400lbs. more in the Challenger but only 100 in the Camaro. Interesting.
