Discover the 2023 Dodge Challenger

Powertrain

Though the Challenger comes standard with a peppy 305-horsepower V6, the big draws of the car’s list of powertrain options are, of course, its available V8 Hemi engines. First up is the R/T’s standard 5.7L motor, delivering real muscle car grunt at 375 horsepower and 410 lb-ft of torque. A huge bump up in power to a whopping 797 horsepower and 707 lb-ft of torque comes from the SRT’s available Supercharged 6.2L High-Output Hemi.

Harnessing the Challenger’s incredible power is either an 8-speed Torqueflite automatic transmission with paddle shifters or a 6-speed TREMEC manual transmission, pairing with most V8 options and offering the most traditional driving experience. Eco, sport, track, and custom drive modes optimize power delivery and handling to better suit the environment and your preferred driving style.

Chassis and Performance Packages

Besides helping its drivers to win races at the local drag strip, the Challenger is a deft performer as it navigates through technical courses and winding mountain passes with its multi-link rear suspension and available packages. Recommended for serious track goers, the Performance Handling Package adds larger 20-inch wheels, enhanced suspension, and Brembo brakes for exceptional stopping performance.

The Widebody Package is another host of upgrades that includes adaptive damping suspension, grippier Pirelli all-season tires, and unique Widebody fender flares.

Interior

Just like its handsome exterior, the Challenger’s cabin is full of visual cues that harken back to the early years of the American muscle car scene. For instance, there are the instrument panel’s circular gauges in a classic font and layout, an old-school rear bench seat, and the ball-topped manual shifter. The stylish interior is also one of the roomiest in its class with an impressive passenger volume of 94 cubic feet and over 33 inches of rear legroom.

Owners can customize the cabin in a bevy of ways, including equipping it with Napa leather-upholstered performance seats, a suede headliner, or premium stitching for the dash panel.

Infotainment System

All models come equipped with Uconnect infotainment, featuring standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, handy voice commands, and hands-free calls. With available navigation and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, you’ll have an easy time navigating around town and finding new points of interest to explore.

As for audio, you can choose between a 9-speaker Alpine or a 19-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system. Either choice boasts booming, crystal-clear sound, especially with the Harman Kardon system’s dual subwoofers and 900-watt amplifier.

Head-turning design and thrilling power combine to make the Challenger one of the most compelling muscle cars on the market. Give Blue Ribbon Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram a call today and schedule your test drive with the 2023 model!
