A quick recap: the iconic Dodge Charger and Challenger models as we know them are coming to an end, but not without the automaker sending them off with one last hurrah. 2023 will be the final year for both the Dodge Charger and Dodge Challenger, at least with internal combustion engines underpinning them. So, the manufacturer has been introducing a series of “Last Call” special edition models for the two performance legends, and we’re just waiting for the last of them to be unveiled. Well, we’ve finally gotten word on when exactly the final one will be revealed, and another exciting vehicle will be on display there as well.

Dodge “Last Call” Performance Festival
The event is scheduled to take place on March 20th this year, at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The seventh and final “Last Call” special edition will be unveiled at the event along with drag racing on The Strip, Dodge Thrill Rides, a car show, plenty of celebrities and so much more.
“The Dodge ‘Last Call’ event will be a celebration of Dodge performance. While the ‘Last Call’ special-edition model we will reveal at Las Vegas and the electrified Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept represent different performance eras for our brand, both are linked by a commitment to delivering the Brotherhood of Muscle a vehicle that drives like a Dodge, looks like a Dodge and sounds like a Dodge. No matter the era, Dodge will always be about muscle, attitude and performance, and that’s what this event will celebrate.”
Tim Kuniskis, Chief Executive Officer, Dodge Brand – Stellantis
Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept
As alluded to in the quote above, the Dodge Charger Daytona SRT Concept will also be on display at the event. We’ve stated many times throughout all of this “Last Call” talk that this is the end of the Charger and Challenger in their current forms, but that doesn’t mean the icons are dead. The Charger Daytona SRT Concept is the brand’s vision for the future of muscle cards mixed with electrification. While it might not be a production model, it is the purest glimpse at the future of the Charger underpinned by an electric powertrain.
We cannot wait to see this event play out, nor can we wait to see what the Dodge electric future holds.
