Yahoo Autos 2022 Dodge Challenger and Charger get a streak of Halloween spirit
Dodge has done a stunningly good job of keeping the Charger and the Challenger, two of the oldest cars sold new in the United States, looking fresh. Its designers aren't out of ideas yet: It announced Hemi Orange and SRT Black packages for the 2022 model year.
As its name implies, the Hemi Orange package adds orange accents to both muscle cars. Orange is synonymous with Halloween in October, and Dodge's timing certainly plays on that, but the appearance package isn't a tribute to the custom of knocking on a stranger's door and asking for a Tootsie Roll. Early Hemi engines were sometimes painted in orange — it's these V8s that the package honors.
Dodge is making the Hemi Orange package available on the GT RWD and Scat Pack Widebody variants of the Charger and the Challenger. Both cars receive an orange stripe that stretches from front to back, orange brake calipers, plus orange accents on the exterior emblems. Inside, there's orange stitching on the seats, the door panels, and the dashboard plus contrasting black trim on a number of parts.
