What is the rarest Dodge car?
The rarest Dodge car is widely considered to be the Dodge Turbine Car from the early 1960s, a limited prototype built for Chrysler's turbine-powered program. Only about 50 were produced, and only a handful remain today. Rarity in cars can be defined by production numbers, survival rate, or historical significance, and in the Dodge lineup a few prototypes and concept cars are cited as the rarest.
Notable examples that are commonly cited by collectors and historians include prototype and concept Dodges such as the Turbine Car and the Firearrow series.
Rarest Dodge cars: prototypes and concepts
- Dodge Turbine Car (1963–1964): A Chrysler-led turbine-powered prototype program produced about 50 cars for a public demonstration era; today only a small number are accounted for, with several known to exist in museums and private collections.
- Dodge Firearrow concept cars (1954–1956): A trio of early-jet-inspired concept cars designed by Virgil Exner; three were built and are among the rarest Dodges, with surviving examples in museums.
These examples illustrate how rarity can derive from experimental technology, limited production, and post-program survival rates.
Summary
In short, the Dodge Turbine Car is widely regarded as the rarest in the brand's history, followed by the Firearrow concepts. While Dodge has produced many limited-edition and classic cars, true scarcity tends to appear most clearly in prototype and concept models rather than mass-market automobiles.
