  • The 2020 #Dodge #Charger Scat Pack is the second-most powerful model just below the flagship Hellcat model. Available as either a standard or #widebody, the Scat Pack is powered by a 6.4-liter HEMI V8 producing 485 horsepower. While not as potent as the supercharged Hellcat, the Scat Pack is much less expensive with prices ranging from $40,000 to the low $50,000 range. Is it a better value than the Hellcat? Watch to find out.

    • @GoGoOpie
      @GoGoOpie Před 4 lety +6

      Just FYI, the 392s are faster when you let the high tech ZF 8speed transmission shift on its own. Just a quick double tap of the accelerator will take the car to its lowest possible gear on a downshift and You're ready to leave em in the dust. Also, if you hold the left paddle shifter it'll downshift into the lowest gear then let it shift on its own from there. That's how u get the most from a 392. I own a 2016 SRT 392 btw. Years of experience with it!

      CarBuzz people buy the car for the horsepower and fun factor not for luxury that’s what sets dodge apart from other brands. They are about ridiculous horsepower and not breaking the money budget as for instance you can get 797 horsepower wide body redeye with a 203 mph top speed and an all around fun car for under $90,000... it’s got more power than most exotics for a cheaper price.

      Not everyone likes the idea of dumping their entire check into a car for monthly payments, gas and maintenance. Which is exactly what would happen if you got a hellcat, the scatpack on the other hand is the ideal GT car. Fast enough where it's exhilarating to drive, comfy for long distance trips and easier on the wallets. As another poster mentioned a hellcat is a weekend toy, the scat is a much better daily.

    I was going to share your review on fb until you started bashing the interior materials. You obviously have no idea what goes into engineering an over 4,000lb muscle car with a powerful 392 cu inch engine and steel engine block, zf8 speed trans and a steel safety cage to protect passengers in case of a crash. Because of that weight savings had to be implemented somewhere and the interior was the ideal place. These Chargers sell like hotcakes and there are loyal mopar enthusiasts like myself that you alienate when you make uninformed reviews like the one you just did.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  Před 4 lety +5

      So, the poor build quality on the interior is for weight savings? Listen, it's a cool car but the interior is below-average in terms of fit and finish. This opinion comes from driving every car on the market and comparing them. You buy a Charger for the great engines, not the interior luxury.

    • @carbuzzcom
      @carbuzzcom  Před 4 lety +2

      We believe you might be confusing weight savings with cost savings. You get a massive V8 with tons of power but something has to give somewhere else. On the Charger, it's the interior.

    • @mpsangha
      @mpsangha Před 4 lety +1

      @@carbuzzcom you're confusing build quality with finish and materials. There are NO quality issues with this interior in terms of seams, gaps, mating surfaces etc. You wanna see a bad quality interior, look at a new Ford explorer. It's atrocious. Your only real concern is the grain/texture of the materials used, fit and quality are out of the question. This interior has been in production with small updates here and there for 10 years, all the quality issues are gone! If not, shame on Chrysler...
