Q: Does Dodge make cars in 2022?

The 2022 Dodge Challenger SRT® comes in six big-horsepower models, including the Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody, which is the fastest production muscle car—with a top speed of 203 mph 1.

Update, 8/16/2022: As part of their "Speed Week" festivities on the cusp of Michigan's Woodward Dream Cruise, Stellantis has formally confirmed that the 2023 model year will be the final one for the current Dodge Charger and Challenger models. For the final year of production, Dodge will offer the cars with "Last Call" plaques under their hoods, as well as expand the almost-anything-goes Jailbreak program to all Challenger Hellcat and Charger Hellcat models — and, of course, dust off a couple classic colors that haven't been part of the palette for a while.

Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis recently confirmed to Motor Authority that the Charger and Challenger — and their Hellcat engines — will cease production by 2024. Motor Trend, who also spoke to Kuniskis, offered further details on the three new Dodge vehicles that will replace them.
