Cockeysville
Dodge dealer serving the Towson and Baltimore areas, the
all new 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8 comes fully loaded with a wide
variety of performance and safety features that Towson
Dodge
fans will love.
The Dodge
Charger SRT8® makes a return to the performance car market in 2012
bringing intelligent performance features and more power to the
brand's iconic four-door fastback coupe.
New for the 2012
Charger SRT8 is the 470 horsepower 6.4-liter HEMI® V-8 that features
45 more horsepower and 50 more lb.-ft. of torque across a
significantly wider rpm range, new exhaust system technology for
improved fuel efficiency, along with new paddle shift technology and
adaptive damping suspension for optimal driver control.
Performance
numbers for the 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8 include 0-60 mph acceleration
in the high 4-second range; quarter mile in the high 12-second range;
0-100-0 mph in less than 16 seconds; top speed of 175 mph and
stopping power from 60-0 mph in 120 feet.
Awe-Inspiring Powertrain for Towson Dodge Drivers
Under the hood, the new 6.4-liter HEMI V-8 delivers 45
more horsepower and 50 more lb.-ft. of torque than the 6.1-liter HEMI
V-8 it replaces ? up 11 percent to 470 horsepower (351 kW) and up
12 percent to 470 (637 N?m) lb.-ft. of torque.
At our Dodge
dealer serving the Baltimore area, even with the elevated
power numbers at our, a 21-percent fuel economy increase (up to 23
mpg) on the highway is achieved by use of a new-for-2012 active valve
exhaust system that allows the standard Fuel Saver Technology
(four-cylinder mode) to engage over a wider rpm range for improved
efficiency or the use of all eight cylinders when the extra power is
needed. The new active valve exhaust system also allows for straight
through mid and rear mufflers for a throaty exhaust note under engine
load.
The 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8 features an active intake
manifold and high-lift camshaft with cam phasing to provide maximum
low-end torque, including an additional 80 lb.-ft. of torque at 2,900
rpm for strong standing starts while optimizing high-end power.
Outstanding Ride, Handling and Capability for Towson Drivers
A
standard adaptive damping suspension (ADS) system is new for 2012 and
tuned specifically for the Dodge Charger SRT8. The ADS system uses a
wide range of on-road and driver inputs, such as vehicle speed,
steering angle, steering speed, brake torque, throttle position and
lateral acceleration, to automatically tune the suspension for
specific conditions.
At the Dodge
dealer near Baltimore and Towson areas, when drivers
manually choose between the "Auto" and "Sport" settings, the
shock damping characteristics are quickly changed from an everyday
performance ride to a much firmer race track capable damping for more
challenging driving situations.
The performance SRT-tuned,
fully hydraulic steering system also is improved with a new,
heavy-duty pump and revised gearing to give drivers more direct feel
and on-center response. Maximum handling rating for the 2012 Dodge
Charger SRT8 is .88g on the skidpad.
New, split five-spoke, 20
x 9 inch lightweight forged and polished aluminum wheels with black
painted pockets provide great looks, and the available three- or
four-season tires make the 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8 easy to handle and
fun to drive in any condition.
