Dodge leans heavy on nostalgia with new Charger Daytona and Challenger T/A models
Featuring a wealth of performance upgrades, and few aesthetic ones, to boot, these new two models are being positioned as brutish muscle cars that are right at home on the track.
Do you like livin' in the past? Then, boy howdy, you're going to love these new Dodge models.
Both cars can be had with either 375- or 485-horsepower V-8s.
The focus of these two new models is performance, and the cars receive a number of upgrades to that end.
Challenger T/A models receive the same "air catcher" headlight intake duct as the Hellcat.
Both cars receive upgraded brakes, stiffer suspension components, new wheels and special exterior appointments.
In case you're worried about whether or not folks will realize how special your car is, don't worry, there will be plenty of badges all over the thing.
5.7-liter V-8 models receive a new, electronically controlled active exhaust system.
The Challenger T/A can be optioned to include hood pins, which is totally badass.
The Challenger T/A starts at $37,390, while the Charger Daytona starts at $39,890.
You can start ordering the Charger Daytona in September, with the Challenger T/A to follow in October.
