Used 2023 Dodge Challenger Coupe Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

Dodge sells the 2023 Challenger in five main trim levels: SXT, GT, R/T, R/T Scat Pack and SRT Hellcat. But within those trims you have numerous choices to make. For example, all-wheel drive is available on the SXT and GT trims, while the R/T Scat Pack and the SRT Hellcats are available in a wide-body configuration. There are also four Last Call special editions, culminating in the Demon 170. Keep reading for our curated breakdown of the Challenger's specs and features.

  • Larger six-piston Brembo brakes (R/T Scat Pack)

The Jailbreak package can be specified for the SRT Hellcat and Hellcat Redeye. It allows for expanded customization options for paint colors, interior trim, wheels and more. The Redeye version also includes a slight bump in power to 807 hp.

Dodge is also offering four Last Call special-edition models for the 2023 Challenger. They are:

Shakedown
Only 1,000 examples will be built in R/T Scat Pack and R/T Scat Pack Widebody trims. Features include:

  • Shaker hood scoop
  • Available in gray or black (Widebody only)
  • Special graphics and badging
  • Brembo brakes with red calipers
  • Leather and synthetic suede upholstery with red stitching

Swinger
Limited to 1,000 units and based off the R/T Scat Pack Widebody, it includes:

  • Available in green or white
  • Gold wheels and exterior trim
  • Swinger badging
  • Brembo brakes with black calipers
  • Leather and synthetic suede upholstery with green stitching
  • Unique interior trim

Black Ghost
Production will be limited to just 300 vehicles and built from the Hellcat Redeye Widebody. It adds:

  • Black exterior with gator skin roof graphics
  • White fender stripes
  • Silver wheels
  • Brembo brakes with black calipers
  • 807 hp
  • Leather and suede upholstery
  • Unique interior trim

SRT Demon 170
Limited to about 3,300 vehicles, the Demon 170 serves as the ultimate drag-racing Challenger. It's similar in concept to the to the SRT Super Stock but has:

  • Modified supercharged V8 (880 hp, or up to 1,025 hp on ethanol race fuel)
  • Staggered drag radial tires
  • Widened rear fenders only
  • Special TransBrake feature for optimal drag-racing times
  • Demon-specific options include a rear-seat delete, carbon-fiber wheels and a parachute mounting system (yes, really)

Which Challenger trim does Edmunds recommend?

Our recommendation is the R/T Scat Pack for its just-right V8 power and range of available extras. If we had a little extra money to spend, we'd definitely add the Widebody package for both its menacing looks and better handling.
