Unity Automotive has been appointed as a primary UK dealer for the Dodge Charger muscle car.
The agreement with KWA, the official European importer for US Dodge and Ram vehicles, will see the first Chargers arrive at Unity’s Oxford dealership soon, with vehicles from the first UK allocation now available to order.
The left-hand drive Charger, the latest incarnation of the American muscle car icon, is being made available with two six-cylinder petrol engine options: a 420PS version with the R/T variant, and a 550PS version with the Scat Pack variant, priced at £70,000 and £76,000 respectively.

Both versions feature eight-speed automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive, with a driver-selectable rear-wheel drive mode. Chassis features include multi-link front and independent integral-link rear suspension, adaptive damping and, with Scat Pack cars, six-piston front Brembo brake callipers.
Selectable drive modes include Auto, Eco, Wet/Snow, Sport and Custom. The Sport mode sharpens gear changes, steering and throttle response and opens an active exhaust with dual-mode valves. Scat Pack cars also feature performance tools including launch control.
A line lock feature is standard with Scat Pack cars and available on R/T cars with the Performance Handling Group package.
In addition to the above vehicles, which feature a two-door body, Unity says it will also be taking special orders for four-door and Daytona EV models to customers’ personalised specifications.
New agreement continuation of long-standing partnership
The deal for Unity to sell Chargers is said to build on a long-standing partnership spanning many years, during which Unity and KWA have worked closely together to supply Dodge and Ram vehicles, parts and aftersales support to UK customers.
