The first generation of Dodge Challengers hit the streets running in 1970 as what some might consider one of the most successful classic muscle cars ever made. The initial idea for the Dodge Challenger featured a turbine engine, but the designers decided to go with two different options. First, there was an inline-V6 featuring a 225-cubic-inch motor with 145 horsepower. However, for those who really wanted speed, they offered a 440-cubic-inch V8 motor that boasted 390 horsepower.
This is the story of the Dodge Challenger
Though this first generation of Dodge Challengers only lasted for four years, it made a huge splash with car fans and pop culture. The famous muscle car was featured in plenty of movies and TV shows across the country. During these four years, a whopping 188,600 Dodge Challengers were sold. For those who love power and speed, the second generation of Dodge Challenger might not be your cup of tea. It was first produced in 1978 and was a variant of the early Mitsubishi® Galant® Lambda coupe. This generation of Challenger had very strong resemblances to the Galant Lambdas, but featured more sporty racing stripes. These vehicles also had increased head room, trunk capacity and sound proofing. The sound proofing was revolutionary for American markets, helping to dampen engine vibrations.
