Story

2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8

The revived Challenger arrived for 2008 as an SRT8-only launch program. The accepted Stellantis and DOE/EPA evidence establishes the model-year identity, 6.1-liter V8 application, five-speed automatic, and rear-wheel-drive layout.

The LC generation's launch anchor

This SRT8 is kept separate from the R/T, which joined the expanded lineup for 2009. Unsupported output, torque, axle, and option facts remain explicit gaps.

Evidence boundary

The licensed exact-year exterior is representative and does not authenticate an individual car's originality or equipment.
