About the 1982 Dodge Charger

The 1982-1987 Dodge Charger represents Chrysler's attempt to revive an iconic nameplate during the malaise era, though purists would argue it strayed far from its muscle car roots. Built on the L-body platform shared with the Plymouth Turismo, this front-wheel-drive hatchback was more about fuel efficiency than quarter-mile times. The base model came with Chrysler's 2.2-liter four-cylinder, producing a modest 84 horsepower initially. While lacking the V8 thunder of its predecessors, these Chargers are increasingly appreciated for their clean 1980s styling and rarity, production was limited compared to other Chrysler compacts of the era. The shelby GLH variants command more attention, but clean base models are becoming harder to find. For collectors interested in Mopar's transitional period or 1980s automotive design, these represent an affordable entry point into Charger ownership, albeit with a very different character than the legendary B-body cars.
