Dodge Challenger Repair

The Dodge Challenger is a line of automobiles produced by Dodge, an American automaker. The name “Dodge Challenger” has been used for three different generations of cars, two of which were pony cars. A pony car is an American car classification for compact, affordable, highly-styled coupes or convertibles that feature a performance-oriented or “sporty” image. Dodge first used the Challenger name in 1959 for marketing a “value version” of the full-sized Coronet Silver Challenger. The “Challenger” name was not used for a separate model until the 1970 model year.

Dodge Challenger automobiles have been produced from 1969 to 1974, 1977 to 1983, and 2008 to the present. Between 1970 and 1974, the first-generation Dodge Challenger pony car was produced using the Chrysler E platform. It was sold in hardtop and convertible body styles and shared many components with the Plymouth Barracuda.

The second-generation Dodge Challenger (1978-1983) was a coupe version of the Mitsubishi Galant Lambda. The third and fourth generations of the Dodge Challenger are pony cars introduced in 2008 as a rival to the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro.

Dodge Challenger vehicles can usually be identified by the Dodge Ram emblem, which depicts the head of a male sheep (otherwise known as a ram) with large horns. The emblem sometimes includes the name “Dodge” in capital letters. Dodge Challenger cars also include the Challenger emblem, which includes the name “Challenger” in capital letters and is usually located on the rear of the vehicle.
