Dodge Magnum SRT (2008)

Overview:

There is no rule that says you have to give up utility for high performance. But if there were such a rule, the all-new 2008 Dodge Magnum SRT8 would break it. “Dodge Magnum is bold, powerful, street-smart and full of life,” said Darryl Jackson, Vice President of Dodge Marketing. “With a 425-horsepower 6.1-liter HEMI engine up front, and 71.6 square feet of cargo space in the rear, the 2008 Dodge Magnum SRT8 hauls in more ways than one. The 2008 Dodge Magnum SRT8 offers key SRT attributes in ride and handling across a dynamic range, benchmark braking, performance-inspired interior appointments and exterior styling, as well as the raw performance of SRT’s big-bore version of the HEMI engine. Performance numbers for the all-new 2008 Dodge Magnum SRT8 include a 0-60 mph time in the low five-second range and 60-0 mph braking in approximately 110 feet. Capable of covering a quarter-mile in the high 13-second range, the Dodge Magnum SRT8 can accomplish SRT’s signature performance test of 0-100-0 mph in the mid 16-second range. The new 6.1-liter SRT version of the legendary HEMI engine was inspired by the original family of HEMIs – particularly the namesake hemispherical combustion chambers that provide power and efficiency and select visual cues, including the classic orange-painted cylinder block and black valve covers.
