Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs roughly the same to get the Toyota Avalon to the dealership as the Dodge Charger. With respect to gas mileage, the Avalon has the Dodge beat. The Dodge Charger will tax your gas budget substantially more than the Toyota Avalon will. As far as MSRP, the Dodge doesn't cost much less than the Toyota. The Dodge Charger will cost you a bunch of money in gas every year compared to the Toyota Avalon.
Utility
The Dodge Charger's more massive trunk will accommodate more sizeable objects than the Toyota Avalon. The Dodge Charger and the Toyota Avalon can accommodate the same number of passengers. Towing is substantially more the Dodge Charger's forte than it is the Avalon's.
Convenience
You'll quite certainly have to take the Charger for a fill-up more often than the Toyota because of its tank size and gas mileage.
Comfort
While the front cabin in the Toyota offers a bit more head room than the Dodge, there frankly isn't much of a difference. The Avalon offers more head- and leg-room to your passengers than the Dodge Charger does.
Dimensions

The Dodge Charger's longer wheelbase will likely result in a smoother, more stable ride; however, the Toyota may give a more agile feel in daily traffic.
Performance
As far as horsepower, the Charger packs quite a wallop and will knock the Toyota Avalon down a few rungs. On the flip side, keep in mind that high horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.
Handling
The Dodge Charger's rear-wheel drive layout likely gives it better dry traction than the Toyota Avalon; however, the Toyota Avalon's front-wheel drive layout likely provides better traction in rain, snow or ice. The Dodge Charger and the Toyota Avalon have about comparable tires. With their comparable turning circles, the Toyota and the Dodge definitely handle roughly the same into and out of tight spots.
Drivetrain
The Dodge's engine is tremendously larger than the Avalon's. Note that larger engines may use more gas than smaller ones. Torque equals pickup, and the Dodge Charger will have picked up and gone by the time the Toyota Avalon finally gets moving.
