November 19, 2013 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - When John and Horace Dodge developed America's first mass-produced all-steel-bodied cars in 1914, the brothers set a new record for the most first-model-year automobiles ever produced (45,033 cars). One-hundred years later, the Dodge Brother's legacy is thriving as Dodge has become America's youngest and fastest-growing brand – powered by the performance of the legendary Charger and Challenger, the new Durango, the ultimate 'no compromise SÚV,' the world-class new Dart, the ever-versatile Grand Caravan, America's best-selling minivan, and the innovation, ingenuity and efficiency of Journey and Avenger.

Now, to celebrate 100 years of Dodge performance and heritage, the brand is offering special editions of two of its most iconic vehicles. New 2014 Dodge Charger and Challenger 100th Anniversary Editions will arrive at dealerships in the first quarter of 2014 with world-class power and performance, innovative technology features and bold muscle-car styling with commemorative design details inspired by the brand's heritage.

'The Dodge Charger and Challenger are the perfect foundation to celebrate 100 years of Dodge style and performance,' said Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO — Dodge Brand. 'Over the last century, the Dodge brand has seen its biggest success when we've combined head-turning designs with ingenious engineering and world-class performance. These two iconic muscle cars do all of that and more. They represent the Dodge brand's heart and soul.'

2014 Dodge Charger 100th Anniversary Edition
The new 2014 Charger and Challenger 100th Anniversary Editions are loaded with unique style, technology and commemorative features. They deliver up to 31 miles per gallon (mpg) with the standard Pentastar V-6 engine and sprints to 60 miles per hour in under 6 seconds, thanks to the available legendary 5.7-liter HEMI® V-8 engine that produces 375 horsepower and 395 lb.-ft. of torque. They also feature world-renowned innovations like Úconnect and the segment-exclusive ZF
eight-speed automatic transmission. (posted on conceptcarz.com)
