How much does it take to fill a Dodge Challenger?
A Dodge Challenger typically requires about 18.5 gallons of fuel to fill from empty, which translates to roughly $60–$85 in fuel costs at current U.S. gasoline prices. The exact figure depends on model year, trim, and local gas prices.
Tank capacity and what it means for filling up
Across recent Dodge Challenger generations, the standard fuel tank size is 18.5 gallons (about 70 liters). This capacity is consistent across most trims, including V6 and Hemi-powered versions, with only minor variations in rare cases. Knowing the tank size helps estimate the cost to fill when starting from near empty.
Cost to fill the Challenger from empty
To estimate the cost, multiply the tank capacity by the current price of gasoline in your area. Gas prices fluctuate by region and day, so these figures are approximate and meant to illustrate how price per gallon affects total fill cost.
- At $3.50 per gallon: about $65
- At $4.00 per gallon: about $74
- At $4.50 per gallon: about $83
Estimated fill costs at common gasoline price points for an 18.5-gallon tank:
Note: These estimates assume a near-empty tank being filled to full. If your tank is not empty, or if you use higher- or lower-octane fuel, the actual cost will vary. Regional taxes and fuel surcharges can also affect the final price at the pump.
Practical considerations
Prices vary by location and time, so for a precise figure you should check your local gas station or a real-time fuel price app. If you drive a Challenger less often, you may see higher per-fill costs when you finally fill up, while frequent drivers may average out cheaper costs over time.
Summary
The Dodge Challenger generally has an 18.5-gallon fuel tank, and filling it from empty costs roughly $60–$85 under typical U.S. gas prices. To estimate current fill costs, multiply 18.5 by the local price per gallon; actual costs will vary with fuel prices, tank level, and regional taxes.
