We are actually happy that Dodge's planned switch to the Alfa Romeo Giorgio platform has been delayed. That's because we think good old George here can still go a few rounds. You guys are looking at our first spy photos of the Challenger ADR, a widebody version of the Hellcat. And I know what you are thinking: what took them so long?
According to a month-old report from Automotive News, the current Challenger still has a couple of years and two very exciting derivatives left in it. The first should arrive within a few months and is an all-wheel drive model of the non-Hellcat variety.
It's going to be called the GT AWD, and it will probably borrow its driven front wheels from the Charger. Hopefully, we get it with a HEMI V8 like in the Pursuit.
In 2017, the Challenger family will get the car we see in these spy photos. The Challenger ADR will sport a factory-fitted widebody kit with flared wheel arches added on top of the fenders. This is something that the tuning industry has been doing for quite some time, but nothing beats a 707 horsepower drift machine with a warranty.
The numerous prototypes in this spy photo gallery all sport small diameter wide section tires that are sure to boost the curb appeal of the Hellcat. What's funny is that the concept that previewed the widebody look is the GT AWD from the 2015 SEMA Show.
There's no question that both will be very popular. However, going to all this trouble so late in the game seems like a waste of time and money. In 2018, both the Charger sedan and the Challenger coupe will have to switch to the Italian-developed platform, meaning the changes undergone could be even more drastic than the Mustangs. Rumors suggest a substantial 400lbs diet is going on, which has us worried if the big-engined madness will be allowed to continue.
