Dodge has a new appearance option available for the Challenger and Charger. Dubbed the “Stars & Stripes Edition,” the option was inspired by the U.S. Armed forces after a study revealed Dodge has the highest percentage of active military buyers among all major automotive brands in the United States. The study, conducted by mTAB, “New Vehicle Customer Studies: October 2016-September 2018,” also noted that Challenger and Charger each have the highest percentage of active military buyers in their respective segments.
“We also have a strong following of buyers who are in the military, as well as many buyers who are patriotic,” said Steve Beahm, Head of Passenger Car Brands – Dodge, SRT, Chrysler and FIAT, FCA – North America and Head of Parts & Service (Mopar), FCA – North America.
