In 1978, the Magnum was unveiled as an alternative to the Dodge Charger. It was the final car to use the long-running Chrysler B chassis and was offered in two versions: the "XE" and the "GT." In order to create a car that would be suitable for NASCAR and be more aerodynamic—something that the Charger from 1975 to 1978 was not—the look was significantly rounded off. Four rectangular headlights with retractable glass covers, small opera windows, and an optional T-bar or power sunroof were among the styling highlights. Weight was close to 3,900 lb, and the standard engine was a 318 cu in (5.2 L) V8 with Lean-Burn. Two and four-barrel carbureted 360 cu in (5.9 L) and 400 cu in (6.6 L) V8s were available.
