Dodge Challenger Specs, Engines & Dimensions (1969–1974) — First Generation
The first-generation Dodge Challenger pairs bold American styling with a choice of Coupe and open-top Cabrio bodies. When choosing one, consider how its engine and transmission suit the driving you enjoy.
Dodge Challenger engine options include gasoline powertrains such as the rear-wheel-drive 7.0 MT in Cabrio and Coupe form, alongside the 7.0 AT Cabrio. The manual lets you choose when to change gears, while the automatic makes traffic less demanding. These examples cover only part of the generation’s range.
