That looks like one of the Hemi engines. However the AWD Charger only came with the V6 in 2018.
The OP said in their other thread that they decided to pass on this vehicle .

Iāve known a couple people that bought old police cars. Some of the features were not exactly conventional but seemed to be good cars. I remember as a kid the neighbor bought a Dodge local police unit. They didnāt have or forgot to put handles on the rear doors so they would have to be opened from the outside. I also noted the paint spots from where they filled the holes from the roof bubble gum light, and of course the taxi type seat covers for transporting drunks. A friend bought a 64 Ford highway patrol car. It still had the switch to turn off the tail lights which he thought was cool. Had to re-paint it though and took it to Mexico for a new interior. High mileage but highway miles and the price was right.
That is pretty much SOP with a police-ordered car.
When I was a social work intern for my stateās Child Protective Agency in 1967, I was told to always use one of our few two-door cars when transporting kids who were being released from the state penal institution for minors. Even though they were returning to their homes, I learned that many of them would prefer to āelopeā, rather than return home.
Our 4 door cars had the standard āpolice packageā of a calibrated speedometer, plus HD cooling system and suspension, but they didnāt include the usual PD-specified deletion of the rear passenger door handlesāthus the need to use two door cars in that type of situation. I never had an āelopementā, even though those boys could have done it, even if they were riding in a two-door sedan. I was lucky.
