Dodge Challenger (second generation)

The second Challenger was a small imported coupe, not a muscle car. From 1978 Dodge sold a rebadged Mitsubishi Galant Lambda through its dealers as a captive import, at first under the name Dodge Colt Challenger, while Plymouth sold the same car as the Sapporo and Mitsubishi sold it elsewhere as the Sapporo or Scorpion. It kept the frameless hardtop look of the old Challenger but used four cylinder engines of 1.6 and 2.6 liters with balance shafts. It was redesigned in 1981 and replaced by the Conquest and the Laser and Daytona. Its model years run from 1978 to 1983.
