- Dodge Charger police vehicles priced from $26,575 including destination
- Pricing includes an arsenal of standard items necessary for law-enforcement use
The Michigan State Police laid down the law, and the all-new 2006 Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum police vehicles were more than equal to the challenge. The department announced preliminary results of its 2006 model year Police Vehicle Evaluation Program, which includes a series of grueling on-road tests that evaluate acceleration, top speed, braking and vehicle dynamics. The test results are viewed by police departments throughout the country before they order new fleet vehicles.
"We are extremely proud that the all-new 2006 Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum police vehicles met and often exceeded requirements of the Michigan State Police," said Steven Landry, Vice President, Dodge Marketing. "These bold, powerful and capable vehicles are more than ready to help police officers go get the bad guys."
Dodge announced the U.S. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the Dodge Charger police vehicle is $26,575, and the MSRP for the Dodge Magnum police vehicle is $28,275 (including $675 destination charge) when equipped with the 3.5-liter High Output V-6 engine.
U.S. MSRP for the Dodge Charger police vehicle with the 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine is $28,805, and the MSRP for the 2006 Dodge Magnum police vehicle with the HEMI engine is $30,505. Both prices include a destination charge of $675.
Highlights from the September 2005 Michigan State Police evaluation program included the following preliminary results:
- Top Speed: Dodge Charger 5.7-liter HEMI posted best-in-class top speed of over 145 mph
- Acceleration: Dodge Charger 5.7-liter HEMI and Dodge Magnum 5.7-liter HEMI posted first and second place in acceleration times (0 - 100 mph in 16.24 seconds and 16.49 seconds, respectively)
- Vehicle Dynamics: Dodge Charger 5.7-liter HEMI and Dodge Magnum 5.7-liter HEMI posted first and second place in vehicle dynamics testing (average lap times of 1:37.96 and 1:38.26, respectively)
- Braking: Dodge Magnum 3.5-liter V-6 and Dodge Charger 3.5-liter V-6 posted first and second place in braking distance (60 mph - 0 in 128.1 feet and 130.1 feet, respectively)
The 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine in the Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum police vehicles produces 340 horsepower (254 kW) at 5,000 rpm and 390 lb.-ft. of torque (525 N·m) at 4,000 rpm. The V-8 HEMI engine features Chrysler Group's fuel-saving Multi-Displacement System (MDS), which seamlessly alternates between smooth, high fuel economy four-cylinder mode when less power is needed and V-8 mode when more power is required. Fuel efficiency improves by as much as 20 percent with MDS, but not at the expense of performance.
The powerful, 3.5-liter High Output V-6 engine provides 250 horsepower (186 kW) at 6400 rpm and 250 lb.-ft. of torque (340 N·m) at 3800 rpm, offering an outstanding blend of performance and fuel economy.
Both engines available on the Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum police vehicles are mated to a five-speed automatic transmission, which uses highly advanced electronic shift controls for a responsive, smooth feel without harshness. This transmission features Chrysler Group's AutoStick®, which offers the choice of a fully automatic or manually selected gear range. This transmission also is equipped with an Electronically Modulated Converter Clutch (EMCC), which controls torque converter clutch slippage and provides improved shift feel to match a variety of driving styles, situations and road conditions. Heavy-duty four-wheel disc brakes and linings, also standard on all Dodge police vehicles, provide secure and stable deceleration and braking capability.
The 2006 Dodge Charger and Magnum police vehicles began production in September, 2005 at Chrysler Group's Brampton (Ontario) Assembly Plant alongside the award-winning Chrysler 300, Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum vehicles.

Police Car Heritage
The former Chrysler Corporation dominated the police car business throughout the 1960s, ‘70s and early ‘80s, with U.S. market shares ranging from 45-60 percent. Police vehicles manufactured by the former Chrysler Corporation included the Dodge Monaco, Dodge Royal Monaco, Dodge Coronet, Dodge Diplomat, Dodge Dart, Dodge St. Regis, Plymouth Fury, Plymouth Gran Fury, Plymouth Volare and Chrysler Newport.
Recently, Dodge returned to the police car market after a 12-year hiatus with the 2002 Dodge Intrepid. The front-wheel drive Dodge Intrepid earned a 4 percent share of the approximately 70,000 unit U.S. market. That vehicle was phased out of production in 2003.
In the fall of 2004, Dodge previewed the 2006 Dodge Magnum as a police vehicle offering enhanced rear-wheel-drive performance and handling with a spacious, flexible interior for police special service uses.

As a cop you might want to ask cop's how to equip the car...
1. you cannot put strobes in the headlight becuase it melts them.
2. NO and I mean NO trunk room..this is a must for those of us who roam the state and all our gear is in the trunk.
3. No covers for outside mirrors to mount a strobe in.. really important for those of us who drive unmakred cars.
4. An oversize inside dome light, (like in the crown vic) both red and white.

The new Charger looks to stupid to be a cop car. No cop had better try to pull me over driving one of those. I'll keep driving until they shoot me before I pull over for a new "Charger". This thing is nothing but a disgrace to the real Chargers of '66-'74. The '06 charger reminds me of Hillary Clinton: it's fat, stupid, and ugly.

AND IF YOU WANT TO talk ugly car lets look into the mustangs past. everything from about 69 to 05 is JUNK. i bet your all upset when your gf asks for her car back and you go back to driving your ford probe. so far the only mustang that can keep up with my r/t has been a heavily modded one. AND the last thing i say is that the charger was brought back and looks the way it does because all of us charger owners wanted a family car with lots of space and ample power to move it. think what you want but everyone knows your all scared that your mustangs reign on the affordable power house is comming to an end.

Yeah, let's talk ugly. Let's talk about a "Charger" that has four doors, clumsy styling, and is priced so high that only someone suffering a midlife crisis (and a growing bald spot) could afford it. A BUICK is even sportier, for crying out loud!! As for racing, fine. I'm a Mopar guy from way back. I used to own a '71 Charger. I love the Charger's performance capabilities, but where are you going to drive it competitively? On the streets? I don't think so, unless you're as ignorant as you are belligerent. Your insurance company would drop you as soon as you got your first ticket. Besides, only belligerent, ignorant morons race in the streets. Are you going to race it on the track? Yeah, good job there, Spunky: overstress that new engine and transmission just to live vicariously through your stodgy-as-hell-looking "Charger". I love the mechanics of the car but I absolutely hate its styling. The marketing department at DC knew it had blundered hugely when the hate mail ran 30-1 against its styling. DC has had its marketing folks working overtime trying to do whatever damage control they can in order to minimize the financial loss they're facing as a result of deciding to manufacture this pig of a car. By the way, Vern, since you have such a strong dislike for ford, how does it feel knowing that the new "Hemi" isn't truly hemispherical, but in fact resembles the crescent-head of the FORD BOSS 429? Ouch. The guy you see across the intersection -yeah, the guy who's snickering at your stupid-looking "Charger"- that's me.

Affordability? As far as I'm concerned, anyone who doles out the bucks necessary for that eyesore called the "Charger" is someone who doesn't know how to handle money. If DC had had the stones to make a retro Charger, I'd have been first in line to put in my order. As it is, I'll wait for the Challenger. DC redeemed itself with the Challenger. the "Charger" is too stupid-looking to consider buying. It's a marketing snafu that will cost DC a LOT of money. Maybe the execs should have done their homework to learn what the customers want (most of us, that is). Of course, there are those who will buy the "Hemi Charher" based on its performance, but as I keep saying, where can it be driven? Try racing it in the streets. Your insurance company will love you. Race it on a track -yeah, and risk damaging the engine of an expensive investment. Mm-hmm. Where the Challenger is Jessica Simpson, the "Charger" is Janet Reno. YUCK!!

Well all I can say is it's about time someone tried to hang with Ford in the Police car market. The Charger has the room and the power to be a great police car. DC and it's Intrepid were horrible!!! Chevy hasn't had a boss police car since 1996 and Ford has ruled ever since. As for the styling, who cares as long as it's used in the police market. I mean the Crown Vic isn't exactly a looker unless your 70+ or wearing a gun.

Meow, meow Brucie. Watch those claws. If I want to give the Charger negative feedback, I'm going to do it, and I'm going to do so with or without your blessings. Your personal attacks on me indicate that I hurt your feelings or insulted your bad taste in cars. The Charger looks like a pig after someone put $500 worth of lipstick on it -but enough about your prom date. The Charger is as ugly as a car can be. DiamlerChrysler teased us with a nice looking concept Charger back in '99, in order to test the market. "Will you buy a Charger", they asked us, "if we build one?" Little did we know that what they really intended was an unholy reincarnation of the Kaiser Henry J (the side profiles are frighteningly similar). Of course, the fact that DC has sold some of these alleged "Chargers" is proof that some people will buy anything. Truth hurts sometimes, doesn't it, Brucie?

Chysler should atleast suply a lifetime of paper bags to put over your head in the glove box along with barf bags incase u look at it with ever one sold. And as for the hemi what an over priced sales buzz word gimmic!!! considering the Nissan Titan truck will Kick A hemi(gas guzzling)trucks pathetic A$$. Since only police and FBI will be buying this car maybe they should put in a DOUNUT HOLDER beside the cup holder and radar gun. There is nothing wrong with the Magnum Wagons are suposed to be ugly! And as those that trash talk the Mustang remeber that even durring the uglest mustangs ever made 74-78 that Chysler has yet to make a sporty car that has out sold them, and I along with anyone with good vision don't think with with this last try that Ford has much to worry about ! OH AND THE MUSTANG HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1964 1/2 to prsent ! other than the over priced Viper where have Chyslers sporty cars been for the past 20 or so year lol....

While I like the engineering of the "Charger", I believe it wouldn't have been such a sales flop if DC had given it some other name. With retro being all the rage, why not call it the Coronet? Or, if you really want to go with a retro name, Desoto would have filled the bill. Calling this thing a "Charger" brings back ugly memories of the Cordoba and the rebadged Omni 024. Thankfully, DC is bringing back the Challenger. Maybe they can dig themselves out of the hole they dug with the "Charger".

(Chysler stay true to the cars roots as the first ones were damn sexycars!!!! )Should have call it a hemi Fury,I would have much more respect and laughed a lot less AT Chysler for it... Hope they continue be a sales disaster so Chysler will stop putting Cool retro names on cars that TOTALLY SUCK. It's about as cute as a Pontiac AZTEC ! Did Chysler have left over Dakota truck grills or some thing? man what an ugly front end !!!! looks like you could round up the cattle with it lol... Chysler please rename it Hemi Fury and admit it was a mistake. Hope they atleast stay true to the Challenger concept but knowing those block who knows what its name plate will end up on maybe SUV !!!!

If your over six foot and wear a vest and duty rig good luck getting in and out of this vehicle. Don’t let me forget the “fly by wire technology” the pause on the throttle and transmission is going to get someone killed. The worst of all, our sheriff bought the V6 models, yea some cop car.

Personally, I like the aggressive look of these new Chargers and Magnums, and I've seen them being tested. I'll pull over for one, no questions asked.

Oh my God. I drove past the Dodge dealership this evening. I cannot believe it. Chrysler is so desperate to sell this ugly wart of a car that they're putting hood scoops on it, in addition to painting it in the old high impact colors. Citron Yella and In Violet, beautiful colors that they are, cannot camouflage the ugliness of this heap. Every time I see one of those rolling monstrosities, I'm reminded of the old adage "A fool and his money are soon parted". It's bad enough that I have to look at those four door infections on the road occasionally, but now as a taxpayer my money is being stolen to purchase these God-awful, pus-oozing designs for the Police department. Issuing these things to law enforcement is illegal: it is an expression of disrespect to those who serve and protect.
