2023 Dodge Charger: Last Call, Five Special Editions, No Built Counts

This record's own overview states that Dodge said the Charger and Challenger in their HEMI-powered forms would end in 2023, that every 2023 car carried a "Last Call" underhood plaque with orders due by the end of July 2023, and that Stellantis's Brampton history records Charger production ending in December 2023, with the range running from the 292-horsepower SXT to the 797-horsepower SRT Hellcat Redeye. It adds that the Last Call specials were announced as 1,000 Super Bees split 500 B5 Blue Scat Pack and 500 Plum Crazy Scat Pack Widebody, 1,000 Scat Pack Swinger Widebodies, 300 King Daytonas on the Hellcat Redeye Widebody in Go Mango rated 807 horsepower and named for Big Willie Robinson's 1969 Charger, and a 220-car Mopar '23 split 200 US and 20 Canada, with prices from $61,805 for the Super Bee to $98,420 for the King Daytona.^1,2,3,4,5,6

This record's own overview also states that FCA reported 75,920 US Charger sales for calendar 2023, later restated as 75,898, and that no built counts for any of the specials were found. This record's own conflicts section documents that sales dispute directly, showing both the 75,920 first report and the 75,898 restatement side by side with their release dates rather than choosing one.^7,8

This record's own production rows carry every special-edition figure explicitly as an announced limit rather than a built count, including the Super Bee's own internal split into 500 and 500, the Swinger's 1,000, the King Daytona's 300, and the Mopar '23's 220 further split into 200 US and 20 Canada. The record's own notes state plainly that these splits are the sources' own partitions and that no built counts were found for any of the five specials.^3,4,5,6

This record's own unpublished leads section flags a forum claim combining 2023 Hellcat production tallies for Charger and Challenger with a combined 2021-2023 Charger Redeye and Redeye Jailbreak total of about 4,474, a claim the record notes has no Stellantis source and comes only from an owner-forum compilation. This record's own prices section documents eleven trims from $32,645 SXT up to $98,420 King Daytona, all effective from the same October 2022 pricing release.⁹

This record's own engines section documents the supercharged 6.2-liter high-output V-8 carrying three ratings, 797 horsepower and 707 lb-ft for the Redeye, 807 horsepower for the King Daytona, and a separately stated 707 lb-ft at 4,500 rpm from the manufacturer spec sheet, alongside the standard 717-horsepower Hellcat engine, the 392 HEMI at 485 horsepower, the 5.7-liter HEMI at 370 horsepower, and the 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6. Its options section documents the "Last Call" plaque and new "345" fender badges on R/T as standing features rather than options tied to any single special edition.^10,1

This record's own identification section documents the "Last Call" plaque as its sole entry for the year, and its paint section lists fourteen standing colors alongside special-edition-exclusive choices like B5 Blue for the Super Bee Scat Pack and Go Mango for the King Daytona. This record's own performance section is empty for 2023, a gap the record carries without substitution even though its own engines section documents five distinct power outputs across the range in considerable detail.^1,11
