The Charger name has been used by many vehicles down the years. All the cars that have used the name have been known for their good looks. The first generation Dodge Charger was introduced in the market in 1966. Untill the year 1974 Chargers were built on The B series body. Chargers had headlights that rotated, four seats, with the back seats that could be folded. With the rear seats allowed to be folded, the car had lots of space for luggage or shopping to be stored in the rear of the car. The first generation was powered by a V8 Engine. The second generation was introduced in 1968. These vehicles had the same engines as their predecessors, but the car had a longer length. The car featured better design with the headlights being closed and opening only when switched off. The new Charger could seat 6 people with seats shaped like containers.

In 1971 the Dodge Company introduced the third generation. The vehicle was given a new look, and the hidden headlights were removed from the compulsory list. The company gave the driver a new scoop which was placed under the hood in the front of the car. This intake would direct air to the carburetor, by the simple push of a lever by the driver. The company now combined the Coronet and the Charger manufacturing lines. From 1971 onwards all B chassis vehicle having four doors were named Coronet and the two door ones Chargers. This was also due to the increase in insurance and gas prices. Due to tighter gas discharge rules, all engines were using lower density engines or ordinary leaded or unleaded gas.

The fourth and last generation Dodge Charger came into the market in '75. This model was a lot like the Cordoba. There was only one type on offer and it was the Special Edition. It was powered by a choice of engines ranging from a 5.2 liter V8 to a 6.6 liter V8. The trim level offering was expanded in the following year with the base, sport and Daytona models joining in. The base and SE models were almost the renamed versions of the Dodge Coronet a 1975 vintage car. These were powered by a 3.7 Liter V8 engine. Though sales went up a bit that year they quickly fell so Dodge came out only with the SE and Daytona models. This did not help and the production of the car was stopped in 1979.
