Dodge's “Last Call” tribute is going on to bid farewell to the HEMI versions of the most distinctive Charger and Challenger models in Europe as well. A dedicated series consisting of the revised versions of seven iconic models designed to give enthusiasts a unique opportunity to purchase an absolutely exclusive product. After the Dodge Challenger Shakedown arrived in March and the Dodge Challenger Black Ghost, in May, now come the third and fourth models of the special series, among the total five which the Brand has decided to market also in Europe: Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack and Charger R/T Scat Pack Swinger, a pair that revives the notes of the most “retro” tradition of the Brand.
Dodge Scat Pack Swinger Widebody on Challenger and Charger models
The third and fourth models introduced in Europe reach back to brand’s muscle car past for inspiration, with a reference to the unique style of the Dodge brand’s “swinging” muscle car lineup of the late 1960s and early 1970s. The two original models were style icons, packed formidable horsepower into a compact package, and included “groovy” options, such as green-on-green interior/exterior color combinations, gold color accents and wood panel interior touches. Powered by the HEMI 6.4 L V-8 engine with Torqueflite 8-speed automatic transmission and with 485 hp, typical of the R/T versions, the special edition 2023 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack Swinger and 2023 Dodge Charger R/T Scat Pack Swinger get inspiration from that past, offering a retro look for exterior and interior and sporting a such unique and fun nature as as the originals one. Produced in limited edition, just 55 examples of this super-exclusive special series are marketed in Europe. Both in Widebody models, they are available in two exterior color options: F8 Green and Sublime Green, recreating a classic green-on-green Swinger look.
The two vehicles feature throwback “Swinger” cursive graphics on rear fenders and their retro-themed exterior and interior appearance package is characterized by many shared distinctive details: Gold School Scat Pack, Retro Swinger rear fender graphics, 20-by-11-inch Gold School wheels, Black six-piston Brembo brakes, Mod Grain wood-like aluminum interior bezel textures, Nappa/Alcantara seats with green stitching and green Dodge Rhombi logo, Green Swinger interior instrument panel badge, Green interior accent stitching on console and doors.
Plus, the 2023 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack Swinger is distinguished by the presence of iconic Gold School style details, such as the Challenger grille badge, the R/T Widebody grille badge, the painted Shaker intake and the Bee fender badges.
The Dodge "Last Call" Special Series - The Last Race of HEMI Dodge Chargers and Challengers
The exclusive Last Call edition consists in a revival of seven iconic models from the Brand's history: the Dodge Challenger Shakedown, Charger Super Bee, Challenger and Charger Scat Pack Swinger, Charger King Daytona, Challenger Black Ghost and Challenger SRT Demon 170. All 2023 model year vehicles take inspiration from the Brand's iconic muscle cars, evoking their most significant details, and are characterized by a special commemorative “Last Call” underhood plaque which makes each model a true collector's item and includes the vehicle's name and silhouette, as well as “Designed in Auburn Hills” and “Assembled in Brampton” to certify each vehicle’s origin. The two ranges include 14 exterior color options each, including three of the Brand’s signature heritage colors—B5 Blue, Plum Crazy purple and Sublime green – as well as the popular and modern Destroyer Grey. The vehicles have also been embellished by distinctive graphic details on the body.
To celebrate this special edition in true Dodge style, the Brand has also extended the Jailbreak package to the 717-horsepower Challenger and Charger SRT Hellcat as well, in order to offer enthusiasts truly unlimited customization possibilities in building their own muscle car, with unique personalization of every single detail.
Dodge Europe has taken a strong connection with its Official International Commercial Partners to getting the Charger and Challenger in the hands of its enthusiasts, through their Official Retail Network with all Service & Warrantee Packages.
Dodge, high performance and best-in-class power

Dodge drives forward as a pure performance Brand, offering SRT Hellcat versions of the Dodge Challenger, Dodge Charger and Dodge Durango, as well as an R/T performance hybrid version of the all-new Dodge Hornet, representing the Brand’s first-ever electrified performance vehicle. Dodge delivers the drag-strip dominating 807-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock; the 797-horsepower Dodge Charger SRT Redeye, the most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world; and the 710-horsepower Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat, the most powerful SUV ever; and best-in-class standard performance in the compact utility vehicle segment with the Dodge Hornet. Combined, these four muscle vehicles make Dodge the industry’s most powerful Brand, offering more horsepower than any other American Brand across its entire lineup.
