Auburn Hills, Mich., Oct 19, 2005 -
The Michigan State Police laid down the law, and the all-new 2006 Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum police vehicles were more than equal to the challenge. The department announced preliminary results of its 2006 model year Police Vehicle Evaluation Program, which includes a series of grueling on-road tests that evaluate acceleration, top speed, braking and vehicle dynamics. The test results are viewed by police departments throughout the country before they order new fleet vehicles.

"We are extremely proud that the all-new 2006 Dodge Charger and Dodge Magnum police vehicles met and often exceeded requirements of the Michigan State Police," said Steven Landry, Vice President, Dodge Marketing. "These bold, powerful and capable vehicles are more than ready to help police officers go get the bad guys."

Dodge announced the U.S. Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) for the Dodge Charger police vehicle is $26,575, and the MSRP for the Dodge Magnum police vehicle is $28,275 (including $675 destination charge) when equipped with the 3.5-liter High Output V-6 engine.

U.S. MSRP for the Dodge Charger police vehicle with the 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine is $28,805, and the MSRP for the 2006 Dodge Magnum police vehicle with the HEMI engine is $30,505. Both prices include a destination charge of $675.
