Is the Dodge Charger a Sports Car?

Technically, the Dodge Charger isn’t a sports car. That’s because it has four seats and four doors, and sports cars are designated by their two-seat configuration. That said, the Dodge Charger does come from a long and exciting line of performance vehicles known as muscle cars.

Muscle cars were first introduced in the 1960s when the Ford Mustang hit the market, and exciting new vehicles like the Dodge Charger and Dodge Challenger soon followed. They were just as performance-ready and capable as sports cars of the era and could dominate down at the track and out on the open road.

But because they had four seats and sizable cargo space, they could be used for road trips or even family vehicles. That meant they were more versatile and capable than many of the sports cars of the era, which is why muscle cars like the Dodge Charger are still being produced today.
