The Challenger as we know it is entering its final year on the market. An electrified replacement is coming for 2024. This modern-day interpretation of classic muscle cars from the 1960s comes standard with a 3.6-litre V6 engine. A trio of HEMI V8 engines are also available, none more potent than the supercharged 6.2-litre unit nicknamed “Hellcat.” Found in SRT models, the latter generates up to 807 horsepower.
