220 of each will be built for North America, based on R/T Scat Pack Widebody trims.
For decades, Mopar has dished up in-house upgrades for Chrysler, Jeep, and Dodge vehicles. 2023 is no exception, but it is bittersweet. The Dodge Charger and Challenger as we know them will be dead next year, so it’s time for one last Hemi-powered dance with special edition models from Mopar. And to make it extra special, there isn’t one version, but two.
Simply called the Mopar 2023 Dodge Challenger and Charger special-edition models, this is the first time two have been offered at the same time. Each is based on the R/T Scat Pack Widebody trim, which means a 6.4-liter Hemi V8 is under the hood. The Mopar upgrades are aesthetic only, so the naturally aspirated mill retains its standard output of 485 horsepower.
A six-speed manual transmission is standard on the Challenger, with the eight-speed automatic optional. The Charger is automatic only, and both cars ride on the Widebody competition suspension with six-piston Brembo brakes in front, four-piston at the rear. However, the calipers are given a special Mopar coat of blue as part of the special edition treatment. 20-inch wheels with 305/35 series tires will out the widebody fenders.
This is a breaking story. More information coming soon.
