From The Dukes of Hazzard wiki
Dodge Charger
The General Lee is a modified 1969 Dodge Charger that serves as the primary vehicle for Bo and Luke Duke in their escapades across Hazzard County.
Vehicle Overview
The General Lee is an iconic orange 1969 Dodge Charger, distinguished by the Confederate flag painted on its roof and the number 01 emblazoned on both doors. The vehicle features welded doors, requiring the Dukes to enter and exit through the windows, and is equipped with a push bar on the front bumper. It is powered by a high-performance V8 engine that allows the cousins to outrun the local law enforcement, specifically the patrol cars of Sheriff Rosco P. Coltrane.
Cultural Impact
Throughout the series, the car became a symbol of the Dukes' defiance against the corrupt administration of Boss Hogg. It is frequently seen performing high-speed jumps and complex manoeuvres across the rural terrain of Georgia. Due to the intense stunts performed during production, numerous Dodge Chargers were utilised and destroyed over the course of the show's run, cementing the vehicle's status as a central character within the franchise.
