The 2019 Dodge Challenger R/T weighs roughly 3,900–4,000 pounds (about 1,770–1,815 kilograms) at curb, depending on transmission and options.
In practice, weight varies with drivetrain and equipment. The R/T uses a 5.7-liter Hemi V8, and choices like a manual versus automatic transmission or added option packages can shift the curb weight by a few dozen pounds.
Weight by configuration
These ranges reflect common builds of the 2019 Challenger R/T with the 5.7L Hemi V8. Exact weights are listed on the vehicle’s Monroney sticker for a specific car.
- 5.7L Hemi V8 with 6-speed manual: approximately 3,900–3,950 pounds (1,770–1,792 kg).
- 5.7L Hemi V8 with 8-speed automatic: approximately 3,950–4,000 pounds (1,792–1,815 kg).
Conclusion: Most R/T models sit near the 4,000-pound mark, with manual variants generally lighter and automatics adding modest weight due to the transmission and related hardware.
Transmission impact
Switching from a manual to an automatic typically adds a small amount of curb weight because the automatic transmission is heavier and adds associated components. This often nudges the overall weight upward by a few tens of pounds, contributing to the upper end of the ranges shown above.
Additional considerations
Optional equipment and packages (Premium, Technology, performance brakes, leather seating, sunroof, etc.) can push curb weight higher. In heavily optioned cars, the weight can approach around 4,100 pounds (about 1,860 kg).
Summary
The 2019 Challenger R/T generally weighs about 3,900–4,000 pounds (1,770–1,815 kg) at curb, with exact figures depending on transmission choice and installed options. For an exact number, check the Monroney sticker on the specific vehicle.
