R/T stands for Road/Track (Road and Track). The R/T configuration was first introduced in 1967 with the debut of the Dodge Coronet R/T trim. Since that initial release, Dodge has produced 29 different R/T vehicles; the most famous one is the 1968 Dodge Challenger.

Yet, SRT (Street & Racing Technology) trims generally offer even better performance than R/T vehicles. That’s why an SRT usually costs more than an R/T. If you’re looking for premium performance at an affordable price, contact us to explore our inventory of R/T models.
