When the 2008 Avenger launches in February, shoppers looking for the most powerful and sportiest model will be directed to the R/T. If they go shopping later this spring, they’ll have the added option of an R/T with all-wheel drive capability. As a front-driver, the R/T runs $23,545; in all-wheel-drive guise that jumps to $25,545. All R/Ts feature a 235-horsepower, 3.5-liter V6 engine paired with a manually-interactive six-speed automatic transmission, and they boast a climate control system, 18-inch alloy wheels, a six-disc CD changer, heated mirrors, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob. Also included is a sport-tuned suspension with a rear stabilizer bar, and all-wheel-drive models get the added benefit of traction control.
