Muscle cars are a type of high-performance car that was popular in the United States from the mid-1960s to the early 1970s. These cars were typically mid-size or full-size coupes or sedans with powerful V8 engines and aggressive styling.
Muscle cars were designed for straight-line acceleration and speed, with features such as large engines, dual exhausts, and lightweight bodies. They were often used for drag racing and street racing and were known for their impressive acceleration and top speed.
Some of the most famous muscle cars include the Ford Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro, Dodge Charger, and Plymouth Barracuda. These cars had powerful engines that could produce anywhere from 300 to over 400 horsepower, and they were often equipped with manual transmissions for better control.

Muscle cars declined in popularity in the 1970s due to stricter emissions regulations and higher fuel prices. However, they have remained popular among car enthusiasts and collectors, with many classic muscle cars commanding high prices at auctions.
Today, there are still modern muscle cars available from American automakers, such as the Dodge Challenger and Chevrolet Camaro, which feature powerful engines and retro styling reminiscent of the classic muscle cars of the 1960s and 1970s.
