Does the 2009 Dodge Charger need premium gas?
Every trim takes regular — no premium needed.
| Trim (engine / transmission) | Fuel | MPG | Fuel/yr |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2.7L 6-cyl, Automatic 4-spd, RWD | REGULAR | 21 | $2,950 |
| 3.5L 6-cyl, Automatic 4-spd, RWD | REGULAR | 20 | $3,100 |
| 5.7L 8-cyl, Automatic 5-spd, RWD | REGULAR | 19 | $3,300 |
| 3.5L 6-cyl, Automatic 5-spd, RWD | REGULAR | 19 | $3,300 |
| 6.1L 8-cyl, Automatic 5-spd, RWD | REGULAR | 15 | $4,150 |
The EPA records the fuel each version was tested on. Whether premium is strictly required or just recommended is an owner's-manual detail the EPA dataset doesn't include — so we don't guess it.
