Where will the new Charger be built?
The official site for the next-generation Charger has not been announced yet; Stellantis has not named a specific plant, but production is expected to occur in North America.
As automakers accelerate their shift to electric vehicles, the decision on where to build the Charger will hinge on plant readiness, labor considerations, incentives, and the broader rollout of Stellantis’ EV platforms. This article summarizes what is known, what remains uncertain, and the factors likely to influence the final choice.
Historical context and current expectations
Historically, the Dodge Charger—and its sibling the Challenger—have been produced at the Brampton Assembly Plant in Ontario, Canada. As Stellantis pivots toward electrification, observers are watching for where the next Charger will roll off the line, with several sites in North America considered or rumored but not officially confirmed.
Because Stellantis has not issued a formal production-site announcement, the following list outlines locations that have been cited in reporting or discussed as possibilities. It is not a definitive roster of where the next Charger will be built.
- Brampton Assembly Plant, Brampton, Ontario, Canada – Historically the home of the Charger and Challenger; long viewed as the current production base as Stellantis shifts toward new powertrains and platforms.
- Detroit-area facilities, Michigan, USA – Given the region’s deep EV supply chain and Stellantis footprint, several observers have speculated about moving or expanding Charger production closer to U.S. markets.
- Mexican facilities, such as Saltillo or Ramos Arizpe, Mexico – Mexico-based plants are a common option for North American EV production due to logistics and supplier networks; rumors have linked Charger production to such sites.
- New or retooled North American plant (unspecified) – Some industry chatter centers on a dedicated facility or a retooled site to specifically support the next-generation Charger on a modern electric platform.
Given the lack of an official announcement, the above sites reflect industry expectations and reporting rather than confirmed plans. Investors and fans should await a Stellantis update for a definitive location.
Factors shaping the site decision
Several strategic and logistical considerations will guide where the new Charger is built. Understanding these factors helps explain why a final announcement could take time.
- Alignment with Stellantis’ EV platform strategy and supply chain robustness
- Proximity to major markets (U.S. and Canada) and efficiency of distribution
- Labor costs, skilled workforce availability, and union dynamics
- Capital investment required for retooling or building a new facility
- Regulatory incentives, tariffs, and government support for EV manufacturing
These considerations collectively shape the economics and feasibility of each potential site, with Stellantis weighing short-term costs against long-term strategic benefits.
Summary
At present, there is no confirmed plant for the next-generation Charger. The Charger’s current production has a strong historical link to the Brampton Assembly Plant in Canada, but the move to an electric future has left the exact location unsettled in public disclosures. Stakeholders should monitor Stellantis’ official communications for a definitive determination, as the choice will reflect broader corporate EV strategy, workforce dynamics, and regional incentives.
