2013 Dodge Charger Offers New Sports Package!

b9c5d1440a0d02b7005902cacc3e7b61Weather in New York hasn’t been the best of late with a flurry of snow and ice storms.  No one likes to have to brave the roads in these conditions, but it usually can’t be helped.  When that’s the case, you’ll want to know that your car was built with being able to tackle the challenge slick roads present.  In the case of the 2013 Dodge Charger, you’re covered.

Dodge will be offering a new Sport package that gives the sedan all-wheel drive.  It will be available on all models with the exception of the SRT8.  The package will come with a gloss-black grille.  The tires are all-season performance for those icy patches and are 19-inch polished aluminum wheels.  The biggest treat for fans will be a first.  Steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

As far as the engine is concerned, the Sports Package will come with a Pentastar V6 upgrade.  It will now have 300 horsepower thanks to the sport-tuned exhaust and cold-air induction system.  This has an impact on the fuel economy with 18 miles per gallon while driving through the streets of New York and 27 while on the highway.

We have the full Dodge line-up online at Bayside Chrysler Jeep Dodge for viewing if you’re in the market for a new or pre-owned vehicle.  We are always looking to help drivers in the Queens area find that special car.  Like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter for more Dodge news!

Dodge Co-Hosts Swim Clinic For Physically Challenged

Dodge is a company that loves to give back, and they are excited to announce that in April, Dodge will be co-hosting the Challenged Athletes Foundation’s Catch a Rising Star Swim Clinic.

The Catch a Rising Star Swim Clinic will be held at the Colorado Athletic Club in Denver, Colorado on April 28th, and Alan Voisard who has previously coached U.S. Paralympic Medalists will be the special guest trainer. During the clinic, swimmers will learn how to adjust their stroke cadence for higher speeds, improving their technique, building up their core strength, and how to continue training after the clinic.

The Challenged Athletes Foundation helps physically challenged individuals participate in sports activities. Some participants were born with physical impairments while others suffered a traumatic injury and are going through physical therapy. No matter where they come from, though, the Challenged Athletes Foundation gives them the chance to be physically active, achieve their goals, and make new friends, and Dodge is proud to be a part of their April swim clinics.
