The Charger RG Series 2012 is a modified-V design and the Charger SUV 190 2010 is a deep-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Charger RG Series 2012 at 22,0 ft versus Charger SUV 190 2010 at 19,3 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Charger RG Series 2012 tips the scales at 2 350 lbs - 550 lbs more than the Charger SUV 190 2010 at 1 800 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 225 hp, the Charger RG Series 2012 has a 25-hp advantage over the Charger SUV 190 2010's 200-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Charger SUV 190 2010 carries 50 gallons versus 40 gallons in the Charger RG Series 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Charger RG Series 2012 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Charger SUV 190 2010 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Charger RG Series 2012 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Charger RG Series 2012 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 8 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Charger SUV 190 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 6 that costs less to run day-to-day.
