New Dodge Challenger Models for Sale in Salinas, CA

The new Dodge Challenger is a two-door coupe that delivers the kind of flat-out speed that Dodge is known for. 2023 is the last model year that the Challenger is available in a gas-powered configuration. The Challenger offers a variety of powerful engine choices including naturally aspirated HEMI® V8s. Here's a look at the 2023 Dodge Challenger that's available in our new inventory at MY Jeep Chrysler Dodge Ram in Salinas, CA.

Performance

The entry-level engine is a 305-horsepower V6 that teams up with an eight-speed automatic. If you want more Dodge muscle, move up to the 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 with 375 horsepower. Still not enough? Go to the 6.4-liter V8 with 485 horsepower and 475 pound-feet of torque. Hellcat variations can deliver more than 800 horsepower. The Dodge Challenger can roar through corners and performs better on the drag strip than on two-lanes and road courses. Did someone mention speed? The Challenger SRT Hellcat can rocket from zero to 60 mph in a mere 3.7 seconds.

Technology

The Challenger offers two versatile infotainment options: A 7.0-inch touchscreen and an 8.4-inch display on Scat Pack models and above. Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto® come with either screen choice, and navigation is an available option. Lower trims get a basic sound system with six speakers and Dodge also offers available Harman Kardon premium audio with 18 speakers.

Interior and exterior

The Challenger has a simple interior design with a classic muscle-car feel and it provides comfortable seating for everyone. It gives Watsonville and Morgan Hill drivers more interior space than pony-car competitors like the Mustang and Camaro. The new Challenger has more cargo space in the trunk than either of those two rivals. The exterior of the Challenger SRT® Super Stock features 18-inch low gloss granite wheels, 315 drag radial tires and a bold stance. The available Shaker package comes with a classic Mopar® hood and a cold air intake.

Features

Available tech features include navigation, satellite radio, remote start, a sunroof and a universal garage door opener. A rearview camera is a standard Challenger feature and you can upgrade to blind-spot monitoring, rain-sensing windshield wipers and rear cross-traffic alert.
