how much is a dodge car

[LeSkylar]

The price of a new Dodge car starts around $30,000 for a base model and can exceed $90,000 for high-performance variants. The final cost is primarily determined by the model you choose, its trim level, and optional features. For example, the Dodge Hornet starts much lower than a fully-loaded Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat. To give you a clear idea, here’s a breakdown of current models with their starting Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP), which is the price before any taxes, fees, or dealer add-ons.

Dodge Model	Starting MSRP (Approx.)	High-Performance Trim	Starting MSRP (Approx.)
Dodge Hornet	$31,000	Hornet GLH	$41,000
Dodge Durango	$41,000	Durango SRT Hellcat	$90,000+
Dodge Challenger	$33,000	Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye	$80,000+
Dodge Charger	$35,000	Charger SRT Hellcat	$75,000+
Grand Caravan (Canada)	$35,000 (CAD)	N/A	N/A

Remember, the MSRP is just the beginning. The actual price you pay is negotiable. Dealerships often have incentives and rebates that can lower the cost. Your best strategy is to research the invoice price (what the dealer paid) for your desired trim and use that as a baseline for negotiation. Always factor in additional costs like destination charges, sales tax, and registration fees, which can add several thousand dollars to the final amount.

It really depends on which Dodge you're looking at. You can get into a new Dodge Hornet for a little over $30,000, which is pretty reasonable for a small SUV. But if you're dreaming of a roaring V8, a base Challenger or Charger starts in the mid-$30,000s. The price jumps significantly for the SRT Hellcat models, which can easily push into the $80,000 to $90,000 range. Your best bet is to check the official Dodge website for current offers.

Don't just focus on the sticker price. The real question is, what's your budget for a monthly payment? A base model Dodge will have a much lower payment than a top-trim performance version. Also, think about gas and insurance costs—the powerful Hellcat engines are incredible but come with higher ongoing expenses. A well-equipped mid-range model often provides the best balance of performance, features, and affordability for daily driving.

I always tell people to look at the total cost of ownership. A Dodge can be a great value, especially if you plan to keep it for a long time. While the initial price is important, also consider its projected reliability and resale value. Some models hold their value better than others. Factor in warranty coverage and potential maintenance costs down the road. A slightly higher upfront cost for a more reliable model can save you money over time.

The market is everything right now. With the Charger and Challenger being discontinued, prices for the high-performance versions, especially used ones, are all over the map. For a new Dodge, you might find dealer incentives to help with the price. For a used model, the price will vary dramatically based on mileage, condition, and model year. A used V6 Charger could be under $20,000, while a low-mileage Hellcat will still command a premium. Always get a pre-purchase inspection.
