Here Is Everything You Need To Know To Get One Of The ‘Last Call’ Heritage Models!

For 2023, Dodge is paying tribute to the long and legendary history of the Dodge Challenger and Charger by introducing seven heritage-influenced models. These models were first teased and displayed under full vehicle covers at M1 Concourse in Pontiac, Michigan, during the first day of the brand’s three-day Speed Week event in August.

Over a two-month period, Dodge slowly unveiled six of the seven heritage-influenced models to the public. The last model was scheduled to make its debut at the 2022 Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) show in Las Vegas, Nevada next week, however, due to product and supply challenges, the reveal will be rescheduled for a later day.

For those who were interested in purchasing one of the heritage models, Dodge unveiled its ‘Horsepower Locator’ tool earlier today. The tool allows you to search the dealers, that have been allocated a spot to receive one of the special edition models. The heritage special edition model allocations were only awarded to the 500 top-volume dealers in Challenger and Charger sales. 

How To Find & Order Your Heritage-Influenced Models – 

The way it works, is that the top 200 dealers will receive 12 special-edition model allocations each, dealers ranked from 201 to 300 would receive 10 allocations, and dealers ranked from 301 to 500 get 6 allocations. All of the heritage models are pre-configurated, so it is up to you to use the ‘Horsepower Locator’ tool, find a dealer with the car you looking for, and reserve the order.

The special edition models will work on a first-come, first-serve allocation. So if you want a new 2023 Dodge Charger Super Bee Widebody, for example, using the ‘Horsepower Locator’ you put your zip code in, which car you are looking for Charger or Challenger (in this case a Charger), and hit search. From that point, you can use the filters on the sidebar to narrow your search to only dealers with allocations for a Charger Super Bee Widebody. Then you would contact that dealer and reserve the allocation. 

After a customer reserves an allocation for the model they chose with a dealer, the order will be confirmed within 30 days of placement via e-mail, informing customers they have secured one of the special edition models. Customers will continue to receive e-mail communication from Dodge along the way, providing tracking updates on the vehicle’s production status.
