The 1980 Challenger carried on as the Mitsubishi derived compact coupe in the Dodge range, with the same small four cylinder engines that Mitsubishi had been first to equip with balance shafts to damp vibration. The car continued unchanged until it was reworked for the 1981 model year. Its engines were rated at between 77 and 105 horsepower, and the car was sold through Dodge dealers as a captive import, alongside the Plymouth Sapporo, its twin at Plymouth dealers.
