The Dodge Challenger window sticker — build, options & years
The Dodge Challenger ran from 1981–2026 across 2 generations (1981, 2011–2023). Its Monroney label captures exactly how each one left the factory — the build, the options it was optioned with and the price, including its electric range and MPGe rating.

What the Dodge Challenger sticker says about fuel
Fuel economy is a legally required block on every Monroney label — city, highway and combined figures plus the estimated annual fuel bill. These are the EPA numbers on file for the Challenger, latest tested year 2023:
The label also prints an estimated $3,225 a year in fuel at 15,000 miles, and 500 g/mi of CO₂. EPA files the Challenger under Midsize Cars, which is the class it gets compared against on the sticker.
How the Challenger's sticker figure changed
Combined MPG printed on the label, model year by model year — 2008 to 2023. Worth checking before you compare a Challenger sticker from one year with another:
Over that span the combined figure rose by 6 mpg, so an early sticker and a recent one describe noticeably different cars. EPA revised its testing method in 2008, which shifts figures printed before and after that year.
Safety ratings printed on the label
The second required block: NHTSA's five-star crash results. This is what the Challenger sticker carries as of its 2023 rating:
Stars are awarded per test, so a car can hold five overall and fewer for rollover — tall vehicles usually give ground there. Compare against every rated model in the safest cars ranking.

Where to find the VIN on a Dodge Challenger
- WindshieldLower-left corner, driver's side, readable from outside without opening anything.
- Door jambOn the driver's door frame of every Challenger, next to the tyre-pressure and build-date plate.
- DocumentsRegistration, title and insurance card — on a Dodge Challenger all three must show the same number.
All four must match. A Dodge Challenger whose windshield plate disagrees with the door jamb has either had a panel replaced or a tampered identity — check the paperwork before any money changes hands.
