The 1974 Challenger’s V8 produced 245 horsepower; in comparison the 2009 Challenger SRT8 touts a 6.1-liter V8 that commands 425 horses. This big V8 has the highest output of any normally aspirated V8 engine ever offered by Chrysler. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an electronically controlled five-speed automatic transmission.
Three colors will be available for Challenger: HEMI Orange, Brilliant Black Crystal Pearl Coat and Bright Silver Metallic. The first 6,300 Challengers will display a limited-edition numbered plaque on the dashboard.
Challenger is slated to arrive in showrooms this spring with a starting price of $37,995.
