Order books are now open for the last Charger and Challenger models in the current generation -- and it's not just the end of a generation. It's the end of the models in their current form as the brand makes way for electrification. (Check out the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT EV concept unveiled earlier this year.)
Dodge says nearly all of the 2023 model year Chargers and Challengers, from the entry-level SXT to the SRT Jailbreak have been allocated to Dodge dealerships. The cool thing is that you can look up what vehicles are allotted to which CarPro dealerships using the Dodge Horsepower Locator online tool.
It's available at DodgeGarage.com. If you enter your zip code, you'll see a list of dealerships (just pick the CarPro certified one) and you'll see a list of the available models at each. This includes model, special-edition model and trim level for Dodge Challenger and Charger vehicle order availability.
“Dodge has been building special-edition muscle cars for the last decade, and we have yet to find an allocation methodology that satisfies everyone. Our new ‘Last Call’ Horsepower Locator isn't going to satisfy everyone either, but it's our attempt to take the mystery out of it,” said Tim Kuniskis, Dodge brand chief executive officer - Stellantis. “We're making the process as transparent as possible, giving enthusiasts the power to search for each 2023 model and trim level allocated to each dealer. Our enthusiasts will have every opportunity to locate the Dodge 'Last Call' model they desire.”
Note, orders are based on dealership allocations — not dealership inventory. You can see which models are still available for ordering through a dealer. For Dodge Challenger and Charger models that are on a dealership lot or in transit to a dealer, customers will still be able to view these through the Search New Inventory function on Dodge.com.
Dodge will update the system daily, Monday through Friday, during the first few months of vehicle ordering, so customers can get the very latest model availability at dealers. Since 2023 vehicle orders will be processed by dealers, it will be easy to update the system based on specific dealerships.
Orders will be confirmed within 30 days of placement via email, informing customers they have secured a coveted 2023 Dodge “Last Call” model. Customers will continue to receive updates on the vehicle's production status via email.
Dodge says even the special-edition 2023 Dodge "Last Call" models — the Dodge Challenger Shakedown, Dodge Charger Super Bee, Dodge Challenger and Charger Scat Pack Swinger, Dodge Charger King Daytona and Dodge Challenger Black Ghost — will be searchable via the Dodge Horsepower Locator. Those models will be awarded to the top 500 volume dealerships. The top 200 dealers will receive 12 special-edition models, dealers #201-300 in sales will receive 10 special-edition models, and dealers in the #301-500 range will receive six special-edition models.
Each special-edition 2023 Dodge "Last Call" model will arrive pre-configured. Orders for special-edition “Last Call” models must be placed by contacting dealers with inventory of the desired special-edition vehicle.
We're still waiting on the seventh and final special-edition “Last Call” model to be announced at a later date.
Here is the pricing for the 2023 Dodge Challenger and Charger lineup, including pricing for the first six Dodge “Last Call” special-edition models. They include $1,595 in destination and fees.
