Vehicle Description
The Dodge Challenger is the name of three different generations and
was marketed by the Dodge division of Chrysler. The Dodge Silver
Challenger was first to be produced from 1958 to 1959 as a limited
edition which inherited its name from the fact that they didn't use
any other paint choice except silver. From 1969 to 1974, the first
generation Dodge Challenger pony car was built using the Chrysler E
Platform, sharing most of its major components with the Plymouth
Barracuda. The second generation which was in production from 1978
to 1983, was a badge Mitsubishi Galant Lambda. The third, and
current generation, was introduced in early 2008 as a rival to the
competition, the fifth generation for both, the Ford Mustang and
Chevrolet Camaro.
