Cockeysville, MD -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/11/2011 -- Don White’s Timonium Chrysler Jeep Dodge, a premier Baltimore Dodge dealership, is excited to show off the fast and powerful 2011 Dodge Challenger.

The new 2011 Dodge Challenger builds on its original mantra of a rearwheel-drive coupe that promises a balanced approach between form and function. In addition, impressive straight-line acceleration and world-class ride and handling go along with high-performance braking and the latest technology to delivers improved fuel efficiency for Baltimore Dodge drivers.

The Dodge Challenger is available for Baltimore Dodge shoppers in four trims: SE, Rallye, R/T, R/T Plus, R/T Classic and SRT8® 392.

Pumping out 470 horsepower and 470 lb.-ft. of torque, the newest HEMI engine in the SRT product lineup provides an additional 90 lb.-ft. of torque at 2,900 rpm versus the previous 6.1-liter V8 engine. The added torque allows for inspired standing starts and improved straight-line performance while new, performance-tuned motor mounts improve idle stability and ride control at any speed.

An active intake manifold and high-lift camshaft with cam phasing provides maximum low-end torque while optimizing high-end power.

The 2011 Dodge Challenger is available with either the standard five-speed automatic transmission with Auto Stick or an available Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual transmission. Like the original 392 HEMI, the performance on the street and at the track is sure to turn heads with numbers such as 0-60 mph in high 4-second range.

Baltimore Dodge drivers will love the fuel saver technology in automatic transmission equipped models, which allows the engine to operate economically on four cylinders or use all eight cylinders when needed. A redesigned SRT-tuned exhaust system results in a deeper, throatier note that will surely create envious onlookers both during daily commutes and at the racetrack.

The exterior styling of the 2011 Dodge Challenger remains unmistakably Dodge, with proportions that evoke a bold, instantly recognizable vehicle that has a wide, stable stance on the road. A larger front splitter and integrated front fender spats improve overall high speed aerodynamics and overall balance. Top speed has been increased to more than 180 mph for models with the manual transmission.

The precise performance handling of the 2011 Dodge Challenger comes to life through a new, right-sized, three-spoke steering wheel that features a carbon fiber accented leather wrap and silver metallic painted spokes at the 3-, 6- and 9 o’clock positions.

Power lumbar-equipped front seats are standard on all 2011 Dodge Challenger models. It’s also much easier to get in and out of the rear seat. The driver’s seat now features seatback tilt with memory and an easy to reach release handle, while the front-passenger seat adds tilt and slide with memory, which makes it even easier to use.

New, highly damped shocks offer a firm ride that maintains the feel for everyday commuting while being fully capable for the more challenging situations. The suspension geometry was recalibrated to improve the 2011 Dodge Challenger’s balance, cornering ability and steering responsiveness. Quicker steering ratios and new negative camber settings all around dramatically improve the Challenger’s appetite for high-speed cornering.

Don White’s Timonium Chrysler Jeep Dodge encourages Baltimore Dodge customers to get behind the wheel and put their foot on the throttle of the 2011 Dodge Challenger to experience a responsiveness like no other that makes it a blast to drive.
