For more than 100 years, the Dodge brand has carried on the spirit of brothers John and Horace Dodge. Its influence continues today as Dodge shifts into high gear with a lineup that delivers unrivaled performance in each of the segments where Dodge compete.

Dodge drives forward as a pure performance brand, offering SRT Hellcat versions of the Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger and Dodge Durango, as well as an R/T performance hybrid version of the all-new Dodge Hornet, representing the brand’s first-ever electrified performance vehicle. Dodge delivers the drag-strip dominating 807-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock; the 797-horsepower Dodge Charger SRT Redeye, the most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world; and the 710-horsepower Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat, the most powerful SUV ever; and best-in-class standard performance in the compact utility vehicle segment with the Dodge Hornet. Combined, these four muscle vehicles make Dodge the industry’s most powerful brand, offering more horsepower than any other American brand across its entire lineup.

In 2022, the Dodge brand ranked No. 1 in the J.D. Power Apeal Study (mass market), making it the only domestic brand ever to do so three years in a row. In 2020, Dodge was named the “#1 Brand in Initial Quality,” making it the first domestic brand ever to rank No. 1 in the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study (IQS). Dodge is part of the portfolio of brands offered by leading global automaker and mobility provider parent company Stellantis.

A Word of Warning From Dodge

Street racing can not only have serious legal risks, it also implies a lot of safety risks. Dodge wants to remind enthusiasts that performance driving can only be enjoyed in a controlled and safe environment run by professionals who can conduct vehicle safety inspections, account for track safety, and evaluate drivers before they get behind the wheel.
