The Dodge Coronet is an automobile that was marketed by Dodge in seven generations, and shared nameplates with the same bodyshell with varying levels of equipment installed. Introduced as a fullsize car in 1949, it was the division's highest trim line and moved to the lowest level starting in 1955 through 1959. The name was reintroduced on intermediatesized models from the 1965 until 1976 model years.[1] Muscle car versions were available starting in 1965 with the 383 and 426 wedge cu in (7.0 L) Chrysler RB engine, followed in 1966 by the powerful 426 cu in (7.0 L) Chrysler Hemi. Other performance models included the "Superbee", and featured, the 383 cu in (6.3 L) Magnum, among other engine options. The nameplate "coronet" is a type of crown worn by royalty.

In the 1980s, the Coronet was used on Dodge models marketed in Colombia.

The Coronet reappeared for the 1965 model year as the intermediatesized Bbody using a 117inch wheelbase, continuing what had been the Dodge Polara, which was once again fullsize. For 1965, Dodge sold slightly over 209,000 units, making the Coronet the most popular model sold by Dodge that year. Trim levels initially were base Coronet including a Deluxe version, Coronet 440, and Coronet 500.

The base Coronet and Deluxe were available as twodoor sedans, fourdoor sedans, and station wagons. For 1965 only, Dodge also sold 101 units of a modified wheelbase version of the base Coronet twodoor sedans and 440 hardtops specifically for NHRA drag racing.

The model known as A990 came with a racing version of the 426 cu in (7.0 L) Hemi engine. The car A990 was stripped of all features and included lightweight base bucket seats from Dodge's A100 truck/van line of vehicles.

Most were built as standard wheelbase, however there were 2 Dodge & Ply 2% AWB 1965 A990 2dr sedans and 13 Factory 10+% AWB acid dipped bodies and fiberglass noses & doors. These were supplied with 1965 Dodge & Ply H/T A990 drivelines.

These altered wheelbase vehicles eventually became popularly known as "funny cars" due to their unique wheel spacing.

The front and rear axles were moved forward significantly from the stock location, putting the front wheels directly behind the front fender, and the rear wheels almost under where the rear seat would normally go; this alteration transferred weight to the rear tires, increasing traction on launch. Front seat belts and padded dash were standard.

When the 426ci Hemi was made available to the general public for the 1966 model year, it could be ordered in any Coronet model or trim level. No Hemipowered Coronet wagons have been verified, but a few Coronet Deluxe fourdoor sedans are known to exist. A total of 136 Coronet 500 Street Hemis were built for 1966.[30] Beginning in 1967, Chrysler decided that the Hemi should be available only in their badged muscle cars: the Dodge Charger, Coronet R/T, and the Plymouth Belvedere GTX. The top engine option for the rest of the Coronet line was supposed to be the 383ci, 4barrel V8. Despite this, some Hemipowered 1967 Coronet Deluxe twodoor sedans were produced. There is also one Hemipowered 1967 Coronet 440 twodoor hardtop known[citation needed], and One Hemipowered 1967 Coronet 500 twodoor hardtop known, which is not among the 55 WO23 Super Stock cars produced for Dodge drag racers.
