Dodge Challenger
A new generation of the Challenger is coming in the near future. Will it fall victim to electrification? We’ll see. For now, Dodge’s modern-day muscle car continues to rely on a quartet of powerful gasoline engines including a 305-horsepower V6, a naturally aspirated HEMI V8s producing 375 and 485 horsepower, and a supercharged HEMI V8 rated at 717 or 797 horsepower depending on the trim level. New wheel designs, body colours and interior finishes are now available.
