Will there be a 2024 Dodge Challenger?
No—there will not be a 2024 Dodge Challenger. The Challenger’s internal-combustion era ends with the 2023 model year, including the limited Demon 170 edition.
The question has circulated as Dodge shifts toward electrification. This article explains the timeline, the final farewell editions, and what the brand has planned next for its performance lineup.
What happened to the Challenger
Key milestones in the Challenger’s final chapter include the following milestones and statements from Dodge:
- 2022–2023: Dodge launches a “Last Call” push to celebrate the end of the V8 Challenger/Chrysler lineup with special editions and marketing campaigns.
- 2023: The Challenger Demon 170 is released as the final, limited ICE edition, serving as a ceremonial send-off for the V8 era.
- Model-year end: Production of the Challenger’s internal-combustion lineup ends after the 2023 model year; no official 2024 Challenger is planned.
- Market status: Some 2023 stock remained in dealer inventories into 2024, but there was no new 2024 Challenger slated for release.
These milestones illustrate Dodge’s strategic shift from gasoline-powered performance to electric performance, effectively closing the chapter on the traditional Challenger as a mass-market ICE car.
Demon 170: The dramatic farewell
The Demon 170, a highly limited edition released for 2023, capped the Challenger’s combustion-powered era with extreme performance and exclusive production.
End of production timeline
Manufacturing of new Challengers with internal combustion engines did not continue into 2024. While dealer lots still carried 2023 units into the following year, Dodge did not announce a 2024 Challenger lineup as part of its core strategy.
What Dodge has planned next
As the ICE Challenger ends, Dodge outlines a pivot toward electrification. Here is the general direction the company has indicated, with timing and specifics to come in the future:
- Adoption of new electric performance strategy built on upcoming BEV architectures, with Dodge signaling a move beyond traditional V8 powertrains.
- Development of electric performance models designed to recapture the brand’s “muscle car” DNA, leveraging higher horsepower targets and advanced technology.
- Uncertain timing and model names for the electric Challenger’s successor or its EV lineup in general, with further details expected as Dodge progresses on its electrification plan.
In short, Dodge intends to move its core performance lineup into the electric era, but there has not been a formal announcement of a 2024 Challenger replacement or naming, and specifics remain forthcoming as of mid-2024.
Summary
No, there will not be a 2024 Dodge Challenger. The Challenger’s gasoline-powered era effectively concluded with the 2023 model year, highlighted by the Demon 170 as a final send-off. Dodge is shifting toward electric performance, with future BEV models in development but with timing, names, and specifications not yet confirmed as of mid-2024. Enthusiasts can seek remaining 2023 stock or follow Dodge’s forthcoming EV announcements for the brand’s next chapter in performance.
