Combining the soulful look of the 1970s original, with the potent performance and advanced technology of today, the 2022 Dodge Challenger is a fitting tribute to an iconic muscle car. Introduced back into the market for the 2008 model year, the Challenger continues to build on its impressive lineage while challenging the status quo in terms of performance. Read on to learn more about the 2022 version of this potent pony car with London’s home for all things Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram: Oxford Dodge.
Channeling the longer wheelbase and luxurious interior of the original, the design of the 2022 Chrysler Challenger screams muscle car through-and-through. A long hood sits above a split grille, with LED halo-accented headlamps providing a nod to the 1971 Challenger. While the normal Challenger has no trouble smoothly navigating the road, the Widebody Package found on several trimlines makes the 2022 Challenger racetrack-ready for when you really want to push the limits of this potent pony car. There’s no shortage of options either, with a choice of more than 20 performance wheels along with six different special appearance packages like the SRT® Super Stock, Blacktop Package, or Shaker Package.
Inside the driver-focused cockpit of the 2022 Challenger, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and shift knob add a luxurious feel while the 10-way power driver’s seat with four-way lumbar adjustment adds unparalleled comfort. With seating for up to five, including best-in-class headroom, rear-seat legroom, and cargo capacity, the Dodge Challenger provides a ton of utility—which you can upgrade with the Plus Group package to include luxurious Nappa leather seating, heated and ventilated front seats, and more!
While the look says throwback, the advanced safety features and technology found in the 2022 Dodge Challenger say otherwise. A customizable, full-colour 7-inch in-cluster display offers up real time performance updates like reaction time and g-force, while the Performance Pages app gives you even more insight into your drive—on the track and off. Access Performance Pages via the award-winning Uconnect® 4C infotainment system found on the Challenger’s 8.4-inch high definition touchscreen, along with everything from Bluetooth® audio streaming, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, navigation, and more.
Just like its performance, Dodge kicks up the safety in the 2022 Challenger thanks to over 80 standard and available safety and security features like Electronic Stability Control, All-Speed Traction Control, Forward Collision Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, and more. Stylish? Yes. Speedy? Of course. Smart and safe? You bet. The 2022 Dodge Challenger has it all.
Of course, the 2022 Dodge Challenger was built as a performance model first and foremost, despite its sleek design and luxurious feel. A choice of five different engines power the 2022 Challenger forward, each one more powerful than the last. Starting with the base 3.6-litre Pentastar VVT V6, with its 305 horsepower and 268 lb-ft of torque, all the way to the barely-street legal High-Output 6.2-litre Supercharged HEMI® SRT® Hellcrate Redeye V8, the latest iteration of the Challenger can handle any opponent with ease. Speaking of the Hellcrate V8, this monstrous engine found standard on the SRT® Hellcat Redeye offers up a jaw-dropping 807 horsepower and 717 lb-ft of torque that takes it from 0-96 km/h in just 3.25 seconds, along with a 10.5 second quarter-mile. Add in the available class-exclusive all-wheel drive system with active transfer case and front-axle disconnect found on the V6-equipped Challenger models, and you’ve got a muscle car that’s good for all four seasons. Standard on all models is an eight-speed TorqueFlite® automatic transmission, giving you impressive fuel economy to go along with all that impressive power, while HEMI®-powered models offer an optional six-speed manual transmission for true old-school driving appeal.
