Introducing the Mopar ’23 Special Edition, featuring two high-performance vehicles for their annual factory-vehicle customization program. Crafted with superior attention to detail at the Mopar Custom Shop, the 2023 Dodge Challenger and Charger R/T Scat Pack Widebody models are set to leave a lasting impression on performance enthusiasts and collectors alike. Let’s dive into the exciting details of these limited-production vehicles.
Exterior Features
The Mopar ’23 Challenger and Charger boast a captivating design with their exclusive Pitch Black Clear Coat color complemented by striking matte-black graphics and Mopar Blue tracer stripes running along the hood, roof, and decklid. Notable custom touches include a bespoke Mopar Blue grille badge, Mopar Blue brake calipers behind forged carbon-black wheels, and Mopar valve stem caps. Moreover, an all-new carbon-fiber decklid spoiler, unique to Mopar ’23 models, adds a touch of sophistication.
Both models come equipped with the standard Widebody Package, which includes 20-by-11-inch forged-aluminum wheels in an exclusive Carbon Black finish, body-color fender flares adding 3.5 inches of width over Pirelli P Zero 305/35ZR20 summer performance tires, and an SRT-tuned Widebody competition suspension with Bilstein three-mode adaptive damping for exceptional grip and speed through corners.
Interior Features
Step inside the Mopar ’23 Challenger and Charger, and you’ll find a serialized Mopar instrument-panel badge and the Alpine Audio Group for a premium sound experience. The Carbon Suede Interior Package features real carbon fiber accents and a suede headliner, elevating the cabin’s luxurious feel.
The Plus Package brings Scat Pack logos on the backs of black Nappa/Alcantara combination seats, a heated, flat-bottom, leather-wrapped steering wheel, power tilt/telescoping steering column, heated and ventilated front seats, a premium stitched dashboard panel, bright pedals, and Mopar locking lug nuts. Adding to the aesthetics, the Mopar Interior Appearance Group introduces bright door sills and premium floor and trunk mats adorned with Mopar logos.
Performance
Under the hood, both Mopar ’23 models are powered by the robust 392 HEMI® V-8 engine, delivering an impressive 485 naturally aspirated horsepower, a best-in-class performance. The Mopar ’23 Challenger offers a Tremec 6-speed manual transmission as standard, while the proven TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission is standard on the Mopar ’23 Charger and available as an option on the Challenger.
Superior stopping power is ensured by Brembo six-piston front brake calipers (four-piston rear), painted in exclusive Mopar Blue.
