2008 Dodge Magnum Road Test Ratings

Dodge scores with the Magnum's unique retro look and optional Hemi power.

Hemi power is strong. It handles and steers smaller than it looks.

Ride is firm and controlled, without floatiness. Passenger environment is appropriately spacious though the high beltline is controversial.

Average wagon usability; certain controls have parts-bin look and feel.

Interior shows roots in Chrysler mainstream offerings; exterior styling needs a nose job.
