About Dodge

Dodge was founded in 1900 by two brothers, John Francis and Horace Elgin Dodge. \"Dodge Main Factory\" was located in Hamtramck, Michigan for almost 70 years, built as a result of brothers\' ambition to manufacture trucks and heavy-duty passenger vehicles, not only sell various car and truck parts to several well known Detroit-based brands. Following the unfortunate death of its founders, ownership over Dodge changed hands until 1928, when Chrysler acquired it.

Dodge models had considerable market success under Chrysler\'s leadership, which lasted until 2011. After a merger in 2014, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles continued the recognition of Dodge and its many successful models.

Besides trucks and large passenger cars, Dodge began producing more luxurious and compact vehicles starting from 1955. This eventually resulted in the Charger (1966) brand creation, as well as the Challenger series (1969). It weren\'t only muscle cars and sport-line vehicles that sprung Dodge into such popularity, however; Dodge Caravan is also a well-known model which inspired a very popular vehicle design of today, the minivan. Finally, the attractive Dodge Viper appeared in 1992 and soon amassed a big fan base of two-seater, sports car enthusiasts.

Dodge models, such as the Challenger and the Charger, have a long legacy - especially in the USA. There are as many as seven generations of Dodge Charger, and exactly three generations of both the Challenger and the Viper. Countless limited editions, racing models and performance packages only add to the amazing Dodge heritage.
