Dodge Magnum 2005-2008 Specifications

The 2005-2008 Dodge Magnum offers three engine options: a 2.7L V6 producing 190 hp, a 3.5L V6 producing 250 hp, and a 5.7L HEMI V8 producing 340 hp. The V6 engines provide balanced performance and fuel efficiency, while the HEMI V8 delivers superior power and towing capabilities.

The Magnum comes with a 4-speed automatic transmission for the 2.7L V6 and a 5-speed automatic transmission for the 3.5L V6 and 5.7L HEMI V8. The 5-speed transmission offers smoother shifts and improved fuel efficiency.

Standard safety features include dual front airbags, anti-lock brakes (ABS), and electronic stability control (ESC). Optional features include side curtain airbags, traction control, and a tire pressure monitoring system.

The Magnum's fuel economy ranges from 18-20 mpg city and 25-27 mpg highway, depending on the engine. This is competitive with other full-size wagons of the era, such as the Chevrolet Impala and Ford Taurus.

Recommended maintenance includes oil changes every 3,000-5,000 miles, tire rotations every 6,000 miles, and a comprehensive inspection every 15,000 miles. Always refer to the owner's manual for specific intervals.

Notable features include a rear-wheel-drive system, available all-wheel drive, a power sunroof, a premium audio system, and leather upholstery. Higher trims offer advanced options like navigation and a rear-seat entertainment system.

The Magnum offers 27.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats, expanding to 71.1 cubic feet with the seats folded. This is larger than most competitors, providing excellent utility for a full-size wagon.

The Magnum can tow up to 3,800 lbs when properly equipped, with a payload capacity of 1,200 lbs. These figures are best achieved with the 5.7L HEMI V8 engine.
