ntroduced on Thursday, April 17: 2015 Dodge Challenger and Charger
What is it? Restyled and revised versions of Dodge’s retro muscle cars.
Is it real? As real as a 1970s throwback party with Farrah Fawcett posters, disco balls and mullets.
What they said: “When you say Charger and Challenger, you’re talking about two nameplates that could only belong to Dodge,” said Tim Kuniskis, president and chief executive for the Dodge brand.What they didn’t say: That Charger and Challenger also belong to the SRT division of Fiat Chrysler, perhaps creating a bit of multibrand confusion, in the tradition of Fiat
What makes it tick? Both cars get Chrysler’s 8-speed automatic transmission, which, according to the automaker, will improve fuel economy and performance. Engine options include a 3.6-liter V-6 and a 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 that generates 375 horsepower in the Challenger and 370 in the Charger. A new Scat Pack Challenger model is offered with a 470-horsepower 6.4-liter Hemi V-8. In a news release, Dodge said the car would be capable of zero-to-60 in the mid 4-second range, 12-second quarter-miles and a top speed of 182 m.p.h. All-wheel drive is available in some Charger models.
How much, how soon? All models will be available in the third quarter of 2014. Pricing information is not yet available.
How does it look? The Challenger looks more like the early ‘70s car that inspired it than did the last version. That retro reference is achieved in part with front-end styling and a split tail lamp design that reference the ‘70s styling. Charger gets a new front-end treatment, shorter front overhang and tapered rear quarter panels. The car appears smaller than its hefty-looking predecessor, although it rides on the same 120-inch wheelbase and is only 1.5 inches shorter. Like other products of the company formerly known as Chrysler, the Charger and Challenger get significant interior upgrades.
