About this generation

In late 2005, Dodge teased spy photos of the third-generation Dodge Challenger prototype on the internet, which was announced on November 21, 2005, with an official sketch of the vehicle. The Dodge Challenger Concept was unveiled at the 2006 North American International Auto Show; production started in 2008. Many design cues of the Dodge Challenger Concept were adapted from the 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T. The LC chassis that it sits on is a modified (shortened wheelbase) version of the LX platform that underpins the Dodge Charger (LX), Dodge Magnum, and the Chrysler 300.
