For more than 50 years, the Dodge Challenger has been turning heads and raising pulses around the country. The iconic muscle car, which first debuted in 1970, is still going strong today, and you can find the latest models here at Santa Monica Chrysler Jeep Dodge and Ram.
Interior
The Dodge Challenger exterior features a coupe-like style, with two doors and a low-slung profile that makes an impression everywhere it goes. Customizable in a variety of eye-catching color schemes and combinations, the Challenger steals the spotlight on any California freeway.
Looking to stand out even more and give your Challenger an even greater artistic flair? Consider the available Widebody package, which upgrades your car with unique details such as fender flares, and wider wheels and tires.
Slip inside the Challenger and discover the craftsmanship and quality that have made Dodge a favorite of drivers for more than a century. This car seats five people in its two-row interior, with more interior space for legroom and headroom than most competing sports coupes in its class.
Behind the two rows of seats, you'll find a nice, useful trunk space for your gear. This trunk allows you to securely transport your cargo out of the eyesight of passersby. It locks and it can accommodate up to 16.2 cubic feet of gear, which is plenty of space for your groceries or suitcases, and the backseats fold in a 60 / 40 split, which means you can quickly and easily make room for even more storage when needed.
