In addition, this 5.7-liter Hemi V8, which, with its new variable-valve timing (VVT) and multi-displacement system (MDS), which shuts four of the eight cylinders down at cruising speed for added fuel economy, has drawn yahoos from virtually every professional reviewer. With the standard five-speed automatic transmission, claims of 0–60 in under 7 seconds, this potent Hemi V8 the EPA scores this 13/18 rear-wheel drive and that is a good thing in today's economy.
