R/T is the performance marker used on Dodge/Chrysler automobiles since the 1960s (similar to Chevrolet's Super Sport; or SS). R/T stands for Road/Track.[1] R/T models usually come with R/T badging and a combination of upgraded suspension, tires, brakes, and often more powerful engines. Many models have also come with monotone paint and stripes as well as aggressive body kits.

In 2004, the Chrysler SRT (Street and Racing Technology) division replaced R/T as the high performance auto group for Dodge vehicles, though the trim level is still in use on many current models with more powerful engines and cosmetic changes such as different rims and bumpers and grills and the R/T badge.
