Dodge Challenger News, Pricing and Review (Page 4)

It seems Dodge is a little behind the times when it comes to Electric Vehicles. The American manufacturer has been instead seemingly focusing on its high horsepower powerplant v8, the Hellcat; putting it in anything from muscle cars, like the Challenger, or Charger to soccer-mom SUVs like the Durango.

Chevy Camaro sales in 2021 so far show that GM’s muscle car is fading away to oblivion while Mustang maintains a slim lead in sales in the shrinking muscle car segment. Mustang Mach-E not part of the calculations, but does the EV Mustang help or hurt the gas-powered pony car?

If you are looking to get into a new American performance car for the lowest monthly price point possible and you have great credit, you can get into a 455-horsepower Chevrolet Camaro LT1 coupe for just $333 per month with only $333 down, making it by far the most affordable V8-powered performance car on the market.

The Dodge Challenger was the only vehicle in the class of three to show positive growth in the fourth quarter of 2020, allowing it to lead the segment for the final stanza of the year, but the Ford Mustang still claimed the annual sales title while the Chevrolet Camaro posted its second-worst sales year, ever.

If you have dreamed of hitting the street in a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat with enough power to run deep into the 8-second range, a former record-holding Mopar muscle car with upwards of 1,300 horsepower is available for sale for less than the price of a 797-horsepower Redeye.

We have gotten many questions lately as to when the Build & Price tool would be available for the 2021 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock and Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye, and while we don’t know when it went live, you can now build both of the high performance machines online now.

Dodge prepared for the latest restrictions in California, switching popular models like the Challenger and Charger Scat Pack and Hellcat to copper-free brake pads, keeping them legal for sale in states with the toughest environmental guidelines.

Mopar has an array of new items for the 2020 Christmas season, ranging from face masks, ornaments and oil change packages to ugly sweaters, jackets and the Dodge Redeye crate engine, offering something for just about every holiday budget.

Gold Rush was initially introduced for the 2020 Dodge Challenger 50th Anniversary Edition models but for 2021, it will be offered for the Challenger T/A, T/A 392, SRT Hellcat and SRT Hellcat Redeye, making this unique metallic yellow the 14th color in the model line’s palette.

The Dodge Challenger of John Reed is one of the quickest modern Mopar muscle cars in the world, running in the mid-7-second range with factory-style independent rear suspension setup rather than the popular swap to a solid rear axle.

The Dodge Challenger has proven to be the most popular sporty two-door in the U.S. market for the months of July, August and September 2020, leading the Ford Mustang and Chevy Camaro in the segment, along with the rest of the coupes outside of the muscle car/pony car world.

Dodge is celebrating their J.D. Power awards with a 60-second commercial that features the Charger Hellcat Redeye, Challenger Super Stock, Durango Hellcat and several characters from the “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby”.

Dealerships around the United States are having a hard time keeping the Dodge Challenger during the ongoing pandemic, leading to a spike in used car pricing and while lots of vehicles have seen used values climb, the Mopar muscle car has seen the greatest increases.

The 2021 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack Shaker and the T/A 392 models get added grip for launching and cornering with the widebody package, which includes significantly wider rubber and unique suspension tuning.

Dealerships have been telling some potential 2020 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock buyers that they are limited to a certain number of units and while production for the 2020 model year will be short, there is no preset number of units slated for production.

After spending the past three years daily driving a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, my humorous piece from September 2014 has proven to be quite wrong, so here is a look at how my “7 Reasons Why You Don’t Want to Own a Hellcat” have aged since 2014.

Dodge and Ram were the highest ranked mass market brands in the recently announced J.D. Power 2020 Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) awards, with Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, Dodge Durango, Ram 1500 and Chrysler Pacifica all placing within their individual vehicle classes.

Once the 50/50 merger between FCA and Peugeot SA is complete sometime in early 2021, the newly formed corporation will be named Stellantis, with Dodge, Ram, Jeep and Chrysler continuing on alongside the many foreign-sold brands of Fiat and Peugeot.
