Chrysler loves to make a big splash at SEMA and they love to have their engineers at Mopar be the ones to make it happen. Being as cloy as a mischievous child with a crush, the auto maker has released a sneak peek of what they refer to as the Mopar ‘14 vehicle.

The picture looks to be the back end of a Dodge Challenger decked out all in white save for a blue stripe stretching across the side and up the trunk. The Mopar logo appears on the stripe right next to the gas tank.

Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO of Mopar, put out a statement to accompany the photo. “Our new Mopar ’14 will instantly resonate with enthusiasts,” He said. “This limited-edition ride is for muscle-car fans who love high octane and customizable performance.”

The full reveal for what exactly Mopar is doing to the Dodge Challenger will be at the SEMA show in Las Vegas at the beginning of November. Chrysler will also be having a plethora of other vehicles they’ve already teased at being shown off as well. For the auto enthusiast, the SEMA show always brings out the best in Mopar.

Mopar fans know that the SEMA show is when to expect the very best of the company. There’s this sense of it being an early Christmas. The parts maker understands this. SEMA has been notorious for them in the same way the store front is for most retail stores. What is changing this year, however, is the approach Mopar is taking once the curtain falls on the auto event.

SEMA comes but once a year, and when that is over, Mopar packs everything up and heads home. That’s no longer the case, as Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO of Mopar brand explains, “Every year, we put these dream vehicles on the SEMA show floor for a full week, and then pack up our toys and take them home. This year we weren’t ready for the fun to stop.”

What they did this year was take their trucks for a detour. Instead of taking the concept cars back home, Mopar stopped at L.A. To give car journalists a better look at what stole the SEMA show. Everything from the Jeep Sand Trooper to the Dodge Charger Juiced. It’s not something those who cover the industry are used to, but it did give them an unprecedented at Mopar’s fantastic new special vehicles.

The SEMA show is going to be one of the hottest auto events of the year. Mopar has been steadily releasing more and more information about the new rides they will be presenting to the world in Las Vegas. One of the best named vehicles that Mopar is giving the special treatment to is the Jeep Sand Trooper.

The moment you take a peek at the Jeep Sand Trooper, it’s clear where this beast belongs. The full dusty yellow body would look at home on any desert across the world. The exterior hosts a series of black accents that include the front and rear off-road bumpers, grille, fuel-filler door, and black door-sill guards. Combining it with other Mopar options, such as a Warn winch and LED off-road lights, give the impression that this is a Jeep meant to be out in the thick of the roughest environments.

In order to make sure that the Sand Trooper can tackle the places it’ll surely be taken to, Mopar has taken the necessary steps to ensure that it holds up. First off, the engine that the Jeep has under the hood is a 5.7-liter HEMI V-8. It also comes with 42-inch Super Swamper Bogger tires.

Mopar is bringing out the big guns for sure. Every car design they have displayed in advance of the SEMA show has been nothing short of extraordinary. It’s clear that when Mopar puts their name on anything, from parts to cars, it’s the mark of unrivaled quality.

We took a look at the concepts last week that Mopar is bringing to the SEMA show in Las Vegas. Even more information has been coming out of what to expect from the auto part maker when the event goes live.

Mopar is celebrating their 75th anniversary and want to send the message that this is still only the beginning. The show does seem to be, for the company, to be proving something. Whether or not that is their intention, they are definitely bringing their A-game.

The most exciting car that will be debuting is the Viper SRT. Outfitted in a bright yellow exterior, the Mopar Viper SRT also comes equipped with a carbon-fiver cross beam which makes it lighter by 50 percent than the factory version. To complete the package, there’s also the “Track Pack” wheels that are in hyperblack and LED driving lights.

Also getting some primetime at the show will be their Dodge Charger Juiced. Named after the orange color it is sporting, the Charger will come equipped with plenty of Mopar parts to ensure top quality. The engine is a Viper V-10 which allows for 650 horsepower and comes with a Mopar intake and exhaust.

Next on the roster is the Chrysler 300 Luxury. Mopar has covered the car with a True Blue Pearl Coat along with a platinum mesh grille. Driver comfort is ensured by having Katzkin leather on the seats and even the shift handle. There’s even a bright pedal kit along with Chrysler-logo door sills to really make the driver feel like they are in the lap of luxury.

Finishing off the list is the Jeep Wrangler Sand Trooper. Sadly, it’s not Star Wars themed, but that doesn’t stop it from seeming space-aged in its technology. With a 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 engine, portal axles on the front and back that give the Wrangler an extra 5 inches of lift, and 42-inch Super Swamper Bogger tires, it could definitely compete in a pod-race.

The SEMA show is building up to be an impressive display of just what Mopar is capable of. Perfect victory dance for a company in the 75th year of their life.
