For Magnum engineers, safety is as
high a priority as performance. From the big things like safety
cage construction right down to the littlest passenger, Magnum
isn't just designed to give you performance and versatility.
It's designed to give you peace of mind. In fact, Dodge Magnum
has received a five-star rating—the highest government frontal
crash test rating—for both driver and front-passenger safety.

| Multi-Displacement System |
|
Magnum R/T's 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 engine
with the Multi-Displacement System (MDS) is a pure stroke of
genius. By switching from eight cylinders to four during cruising
and light acceleration, MDS improves fuel economy from 5 to
20 percent, depending on driving habits. |

Engines
|
|
|
Magnum gives you a choice of three
awe-inspiring engines: Magnum SE's 2.7-liter V6, Magnum SXT's
high-output 3.5-liter V6, and, for the Magnum R/T, a 5.7-liter
HEMI® V8 with the Multi-Displacement System (MDS). Boasting
horsepower and torque ratings that most vehicles envy, all three
deliver heart-stopping acceleration. |
| Transmission |
|
 |
Both Magnum SE and SXT rear-wheel
drive models feature a standard four-speed automatic transmission.
Taking it up a notch, a five-speed automatic AutoStick® transmission
with AutoStick® comes standard on SXT all-wheel drive and RT
rear- and all-wheel-drive models. |
| Towing |
|
|
 Magnum
R/T, when equipped with the Trailer Tow Group, can tow trailers
up to 3,800 pounds. Without the Trailer Tow Group, Magnum
delivers up to 2,000 pounds of towing capacity when powered
by the 3.5- or 5.7-liter engine. Magnum SE's 2.7-liter engine
can tow up to 1,000 lbs.
Maintaining a proper ride height
is critical while towing or carrying heavy loads. R/T models
with the Trailer Tow Group feature a self-leveling rear suspension
that adjusts automatically to ensure a constant ride height,
no matter what kind of load you're carrying. (Also available
on SXT rear-wheel- and all-wheel-drive models.)
