In 2021, the Dodge Charger has a towing capacity of around 1,000 pounds, which refers to the weight that the vehicle can pull. Despite having a powerful engine with over 300 horsepower, the towing capacity is relatively low. However, towing capacity is determined by various factors including the drivetrain, brakes, transmission cooling, and maximum brake load, not just horsepower. The Charger has a payload ranging from 914 to 1,145 pounds, indicating the weight it can carry inside. Its torque falls between 260 and 707 pound-feet, representing the car's turning power. Additionally, it has a tongue weight of approximately 100 pounds, which is the downward pressure the trailer's tongue places on the hitch.
