Should I Buy the 2022 Dodge Challenger?

If you’re looking for a powerful, fast muscle car with throwback styling, the Challenger — especially in higher trims — is likely to satisfy. We recommend skipping the V-6 for one of the available V-8s, however, because the base engine just doesn’t deliver the experience this car is trying to sell.
