In addition to the seven “Last Call” special-edition models, Dodge is also celebrating its 2023 model lineup by reintroducing three cherished heritage exterior colors—B5 Blue, Plum Crazy purple, and Sublime green—and one popular modern color, Destroyer Grey.
2023 Charger and Challenger R/T models will also feature new “345” fender badging, a nod to the 345-cubic-inch HEMI engine under the hood, and all 2023 Dodge Charger and Challenger models will carry a special commemorative “Last Call” underhood plaque.
Dodge has also launched a new Horsepower Locator online tool to help Brotherhood of Muscle members make the “Last Call” for the model of their choice. The Dodge Horsepower Locator tool and information on the brand’s 24-month Never Lift plan can be found at DodgeGarage.com.
For over a century, the Dodge brand has embodied the spirit of brothers John and Horace Dodge. Their influence continues today as Dodge shifts into high gear with a lineup that delivers unrivaled performance in each segment where they compete.
Dodge drives forward as a pure performance brand, offering SRT Hellcat versions of the Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger, and Dodge Durango, as well as an R/T performance hybrid version of the all-new Dodge Hornet, the brand’s first-ever electrified performance vehicle. Dodge provides the drag-strip dominating 807-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock; the 797-horsepower Dodge Charger SRT Redeye, the most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world; the 710-horsepower Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat, the most powerful SUV ever; and best-in-class standard performance in the compact utility vehicle segment with the Dodge Hornet. Combined, these four muscle vehicles make Dodge the industry’s most powerful brand, offering more horsepower than any other American brand across its entire lineup.
In 2022, the Dodge brand ranked first in the J.D. Power APEAL Study (mass market), making it the only domestic brand ever to do so three years in a row. In 2020, Dodge was named the “#1 Brand in Initial Quality,” making it the first domestic brand to rank number one in the J.D. Power Initial Quality Study (IQS).
