Charger and Challenger R/T models will feature “345” fender badging, a reference to the 345-cubic-inch Hemi engine under the hood.
The Charger nameplate dates back to 1966 and was revived in 2006 as a rear-wheel-drive sports sedan. The Challenger, which debuted in 1970 as a rival to the Ford Mustang, was resurrected in 2008.
The cars remain popular with a loyal following, even as Americans increasingly embrace light trucks and the ranks of performance sedans and coupes shrink. U.S. sales of the Challenger dropped 4.6 percent to 42,094 in the first three quarters, while Charger deliveries rose 1.9 percent to 62,660.
Dealer allocations
A locator tool lets shoppers see which models have been allocated to each dealership, even if the vehicles aren’t in inventory yet. Nearly all 2023 Challenger and Charger models have been allocated to dealerships, Dodge officials said. To help potential customers see what’s available, the Dodge Horsepower Locator allows searches of current and future inventory based on ZIP code, model and trim level.

Last Call editions are being sent to the 500 dealerships with the highest Challenger and Charger sales. The top 200 dealers will each receive 12 cars to sell, dealers 201 through 300 will get 10, while dealers 301 through 500 will each be allocated six cars. Each of the 4,600 cars is preconfigured, Dodge said.
Kuniskis said whatever dealers were allocated is what they’ll get, with almost no exceptions, to assure customers that orders will be honored.
