Features and Specifications
Mopar is a branch off of the Chrysler Company. The name came from the combination of the two words Motor and Parts. Their branches first product was antifreeze which is a chemical used in the radiator in order to not let the liquid freeze in cold climate. Following the antifreeze was wiring harnesses radio parts simple engine parts and more. In order to expand more the Mopar branch started training programs for motor technicians. To even further expand Chrysler built the Center Line parts depot which sold Mopar parts. This depot remains the headquarters of the Mopar branch today. By this time racing and raw power was the main expectation out of cars. In order to prove their brand Mopar started sponsoring race teams and building powerful trucks sedans and coupes. One team they sponsored was run by Don Garlits who later won the NHRA championship. Mopar shifted their products toward race-performance and power-gaining setups. Mopar was now a good trust worthy brand for performance parts. With other companies pushing to overtake the car world Mopar had to create something unforgettable and unbeatable. Their solution was the creation of the 426 HEMI engine. The creation of the …Elephant of an engine made the Mopar branch iconic in the drag racing game. Dealers from all over started carrying Mopar parts and crate engines. Since then Mopar has grown exponentially and started its own assembly lines adding parts to cars through special orders called …super stock. The Mopar name became the number one name in super stock cars due to the Dodge Dart and the Plymouth Barracuda. Mopar was a quiet brand until recently power has become a priority and in the 2000s dodge made an option on most of their sporty models to have a HEMI engine in the powertrain. The SRT series and special packages have been very popular within dodge and continue to grow with the old school displacement of the cylinders accompanied with the new technology Dodge utilizes today. The HEMI (new) The first generations of Hemi engines were produced during the 1950s. These engines were the first ever to have a spherical combustion chamber which lead to much greater explosive efficiency. What this means is the top of the heads is half of a sphere and the piston heads are the other half of the sphere. When the piston compresses the air and fuel ratio and when the spark is brought into effect the area where the explosion happens is a perfect sphere. …‚¦that are Hemi engines; in other words they utilize a hemispherical combustion chamber. A hemispherical cylinder head allows the valves to be inline rather than side-by-side which gives a straighter simpler airflow path allows large valves and gives greater efficiency. The hemi design places the sparkplug in the center giving more even ignition. (Offroaders 2010)
Car models produced (new) Mopar was originally a parts branch but they made so many successful innovations that Chrysler dodge Plymouth and others started using the parts in the factory. Thus Mopar cars started as Super Stock cars such as the Plymouth Hemi Cuda Plymouth Hemi GTX Dodge Hemi Charger and many others. Technically Jeep Fiat and other branches are considered Mopar but the original brands are Chrysler Dodge and Plymouth. New Technology Mopar has been very busy in the past decade. They have introduced many new technologies such as smartphone vehicle information apps in-vehicle wireless charging and factory-connected tablet technology. Mopar has also introduced some limited edition factory built Mopar vehicles starting with the Mopar 10 Challenger. Since this first collectible Mopar has released a limited edition every year. The most recent is the Mopar 16 Ram Rebel. Since the first limited edition vehicle in 2010 Mopar has sold 3650 collectible vehicles. Hopefully Mopar will continue to produce high-end parts and keep thinking of new ways to change the game in the car world.
