Mopar, the Chrysler division in charge with souping up the models created by the American manufacturer, is keeping itself busy this week, being at the center of the news coming from Auburn Hills. Getting ready for the hot summer days, Mopar announced the launch of the Mopar '11 Charger, a special edition of the Charger limited to only 1,000 units and packed with unique features.
Under the hood of the car, Chrysler and Mopar fitted a 5.7l HEMI engine that develops 370 horsepower and 395 lb.-ft. of torque. Tuned and tweaked into submission, the engine has been made in such a way that it will work in sync with the Super Trac Pac range of technologies.
The mechanics of the model have been tweaked in such a way that they could handle, with grace, the strain at which they are subjected. The tuner added larger front 30mm solid stabilizer bar and rear 20 mm solid stabilizer bar and increased the chassis from 27 mm and 16 mm.
The power of model is being sent to the road with the help of 20-inch x 8-inch Envy wheels are fitted with Goodyear F1 Supercar 245/45ZR20 tires. Behind them, vented rotors measuring 345mm x 28mm up front that and fitted with dual-piston and sliding calipers provide the stopping power.
“The Mopar '11 Charger takes the ‘head- turning’ factor up a few notches,” said Pietro Gorlier, Mopar CEO. “By adding some of the most distinctive accessories to an already strong performer, we’ve created a special-edition car for enthusiasts.”
Out of the 1,000 units to be manufactured, 900 will be sold in the US, with the rest being reserved for Canada. US prices start at $39,750, including destination fee.
