Dodge is previewing possible variants for its performance car lineup at this year’s SEMA Show.

While the Challenger SRT Hellcat and Charger SRT Hellcat packs plenty of punch, not everyone is in the market for a 707-hp monster. That’s where these concepts come into play with the Challenger T/A concept proving that Dodge hasn’t forgotten its roots. The Sublime Green sports coupe features a modern interpretation of the T/A package that was available in the 1970s for the Challenger, adding full-length matte black T/A graphics, an aggressive front fascia and rear decklid spoiler.

The Charger also got its fair share of upgrades for the 2014 SEMA Show, with the Charger R/T Mopar concept showing off more aggressive styling for the four-door muscle car. A gloss black roof provides a nice contrast to the TorRed exterior paint while more aggressive styling comes courtesy of a new front splitter, Mopar side sills and a one-piece Mopar rear spoiler. A cold air intake provides a slight boost in performance to the 5.7-liter HEMI V8 while additional performance modifications include a coilover kit, front and rear sway bars and rear strut tower braces.

Finally, the Dodge Dart R/T concept is out to prove that style can come with value. Coated in “O-So-Orange” paint with a matte black aluminum hood, the Dart gets a more aggressive front end while the 18-inch anodized black wheels look right at home on the compact sedan.

The company didn’t confirm whether any of these concepts will be offered as a production model, but it appears likely and best of all, many of these parts will be available off the shelf in the future.
