This popular Mopar muscle car’s existence has spanned decades and a variety of incarnations from subcompact hatchback to full-size sedan. Despite its longevity, there’s really only a couple versions people think of when they consider the Charger: The 1969 2nd-Generation version that starred as the General Lee in TV’s “The Dukes of Hazzard,” and the modern-day dynamo Hellcat. The Charger started its public life in 1966 (two decades after being teased as a concept car) as an updated version of the Coronet built with the intent of nudging itself into the “pony car” battles between the Ford Mustang and the Chevy Camaro. Despite the option to equip the car with a 428 Hemi engine, initial sales were slow until a redesign in 1968 made some exterior updates including its distinctive grille and hidden headlamps, along with its sleek aerodynamic styling. This version of the Charger led to the Daytona, one of the most dominant NASCAR vehicles ever — so much so that it was banned from racing. Following its brief muscle car heyday in the late ’60s and early ’70s, the Charger went through a phase as a more luxurious coupe, followed by a half-decade in the ’80s as a front-wheel-drive subcompact before going into hibernation in 1987. Dodge revived the car in 2006 as a stylish sedan with a nod to its golden days, and then updated further into its more aggressive seventh (and current) generation in 2011. Today the Charger is back to its high-performance roots: the Hellcat and its massive 6.2-liter V8 pushing 800hp currently represents the most powerful mass-produced sedan on Earth.
