Dodge Raider Rebadge & Marketing
The success of the Mitsubishi Montero over the first five years led to a new redesigned model with upgraded amenities including alloy wheels, front seat heaters and covers along with a premium sound system. Dodge rebadged the two door version as the Raider for model years 1987, 1988 and 1989. Dodge marketed the Raider to the North American market as a rugged SUV similar to the Jeep Wrangler (YJ) and included both standard and diesel four cylinder engines as well as a 3.0 liter V6 motor. Part-time four-wheel drive was standard on all models.
Dodge Raider Off-Road UseLike other box-like rugged SUVs of the time including the Wrangler and Suzuki Samurai, the Dodge Raider is typically heavily modified for off-road use. This includes adding lift kits and other custom suspension parts along with heavy-duty bumpers, racks, mud-terrain tires, winches and other 4x4 accessories.
