Engine

The 2018 Chevrolet Camaro has multiple engines available; namely the 2.0L Turbo, the 3.6L V6, 6.2L LT1 V8 and the 6.2L LT4 V8; each of which guarantee speed, fuel economy, and powerful movement. They have great 0-60 timing, horsepower, and torque. The 2.0L Turbo engine puts out up to 275 horsepower and 295 lb.-ft torque. With a 0-60 in 5.4 second and a highway mileage of 31 mpg, it soundly beats the highway mileage of the Challenger’s 3.6L V6 engine (Pentastar) that gives a 31 mpg highway mileage. Even if you compare the 0-60 timing of the most powerful engines of both companies; the V8 SuperCharged 6.4L engine (HEMI SRT Hellcat) of the 2018 Challenger and the 6.2L LT4 V8 of the Camaro, the latter is much better. The Camaro engine gives 0-60 in 3.5 seconds flat while the Challenger takes 3.9 seconds, that being a massive difference for a sports car.

Interior

The classy interior of the 2018 Chevrolet Camaro is a vision. With ventilated as well as heated seats, automatic climate control, a Chevrolet MyLink 7 inch touchscreen display, speakers, leather-wrapped heated steering wheel, compass display and driver information center, the Camaro can be compared to luxury vehicles. In comparison, the interior of the 2018 Dodge Challenger looks quite old-fashioned. It does have fewer features as compared to the Camaro and lacks the same eye-catching modern looks of the other sports car. For us, the overall winner of the 2018 Chevrolet Camaro VS Challenger is definitely the Camaro.
