Dodge 2022 Lineup
Dodge’s lineup at the start of 2022 may only contain three core models – the Charger, Challenger, and Durango – but that doesn’t mean the brand doesn’t have something for everyone. The Charger and Challenger, for example, start out in the low-$30,000 range while the Durango has a starting price of right around $35,000. These entry-level prices do fall into the affordable category but be prepared if you start to move up the range of trims for any of these models. In total there are 26 different trims spread out across these three core models, with range-topping prices reach well into premium territory.
