The Dodge Charger’s story dates to 1966, when the car debuted as a racy fastback version of the brand’s Coronet model. The 1968 and 1969 Chargers are perhaps best known in popular culture for memorable movie and television appearances. Following years of being out of production, the Charger name made an unexpected return for 2006, this time as a full-size rear-wheel-drive sedan closely related to the new-for-2005 Dodge Magnum wagon and Chrysler 300 sedan. Aggressive styling, muscle-car imagery and available V-8 power helped make the latest Charger something more than just another ordinary family sedan.
