All-Wheel Drive Dodge Challenger Accidentally Confirmed By US Government
Leaks are fairly common these days, and frankly they're often good for publicity as far as new cars go. But, as leaks go, the American EPA's confirmation of a four-wheel drive Challengerwas so low-key it nearly slipped under the radar
Dodge is about to release a four-wheel drive Challenger, and it sounds awesome.
The fellas at Jalopnik spotted an entry on the Environmental Protection Agency’s website, for a Dodge Challenger GT, which is confirmed on the same page as driving all four wheels.
Its a couple of miles per gallon worse on fuel than the rear-wheel drive version but the extra traction, plus the ability to plough on through winter weather, is surely going to be worth it.
The catch? As Dodge initially tests the water for consumer demand, it’s going to be V6 and automatic only. We really, really hope they stick a V8 into it, because that would be beyond amazing.

An AWD Challenger? That’d probably make the weight go up, maybe as heavy as a Rolls Royce 🤔
We all know dodge is making this so they get featured in a gymkhana video
I’d prefer it if they kept the challenger in its true muscle car way and changed the charger to AWD for the whole faster car thing.
Thanks Obama lol
This will no longer be a muscle car as it won’t be able to run into crowds
lmao the 4wd would make it easier to understeer into crowds and this is the wrong muscle car m8
What about a fat free challenger?
How do we make the Challenger better? More weight of course!
Same could be said for the GTR tbh
Yo, this would be super helpful to people living in the northeast where it snows
only thing is there won’t be a V8. they stopped the V8 AWDs a year or two ago on the Charger and the 300
Now i want SRT Hellcat as 4wd….
