The Dodge brand is charging ahead in transmission technology for 2012 with the 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 powered 2012 Dodge Charger, now available with an eight-speed automatic transmission, delivering a best-in-class 31 miles per gallon on the highway.

“The new eight-speed transmission takes the Dodge Charger, which was already at the head of its class, and puts it in a league of its own - our Charger customers don’t have to compromise as they can get the fuel efficiency of a mid-size car in a full-size sedan with the distinctive styling that is only available from Dodge,” said Godwin D’Cruz, sales & marketing manager - Automotive Division, Ahmed Zayani & Sons.

The state-of-the-art ZF eight-speed automatic transmission, once limited to premium import vehicles costing twice as much, is available on rear-wheel Dodge Charger models equipped with the award-winning 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 engine, delivering 292hp.

For 2012, the Dodge Charger line-up has been simplified to include SE, SXT and R/T models, which offer technology, performance and value-packed feature packages.
And topping the Charger range is the SRT8 version with a new 470hp 6.4-litre HEMI V8 that features 45 more hp.

This Ramadan, Ahmed Zayani & Sons is offering special Ramadan packages and giving customers the chance to win a brand-new 2012 Dodge Charger SE.

The Charger SE starts from BD10,500, Charger Rally Plus starts from BD 12,400; Charger RT starts from BD 12,700, Charger RT PLUS starts from BD 13,850 and Charger RT – Road & Track starts from BD14,100.
