Chevrolet Camaro vs Dodge Challenger

Two sports cars, compared on the same official records: MOT and inspection results, safety ratings, fuel use, recalls and owner complaints. 4 like-for-like measures: the Chevrolet Camaro leads on 1, the Dodge Challenger on 1, 2 too close to call.

Where each one leads

Chevrolet Camaro

  • New Chevrolet Camaro cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 245 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 287 for the Dodge Challenger in 2022.

Dodge Challenger

  • On Canada's official test the most frugal 2023 Dodge Challenger uses 10.3 l/100 km, the 2024 Chevrolet Camaro 10.7.

Too close to call: new York safety inspections failed, against cars of the same year; NHTSA overall safety rating.

Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
