2014 Dodge Charger: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2014 Dodge Charger is the addition of limited 100th Anniversary Editions based on the SXT Plus and R/T Plus. Otherwise, this is a light-update year, with a new V6 Redline appearance package and a few equipment adjustments rather than a redesign.
About the 2014 Dodge Charger
7th generation Charger (LD, 2011-2014 pre-facelift phase); final year before the major 2015 redesign.
Dodge positions the 2014 Charger as a full-size sedan that does not ask buyers to settle for anonymous transportation. The official brochure leans hard on muscle-car styling, rear-drive character, available AWD, and a wide power range that runs from efficient V6 models to serious HEMI V8 performance. That mix is what sets the Charger apart: it offers family-sedan space and daily-driver comfort, but with a much more aggressive look and feel than most large sedans of its era.
The 2014 Charger ranges from the straightforward V6-powered SE and better-equipped SXT models to the 5.7-liter HEMI V8 R/T lineup. The SRT8 and more stripped-back SRT8 Super Bee use a 6.4-liter HEMI V8, while the new anniversary models stand out with special leather, commemorative details, Beats audio, and unique screen graphics.

“Yes there are I think the rear suspension end on the Charger is too light, Dodge need to get back to drawing board again but overall performance of the vehicle is great, please take this into consideration my car spins again went I press down on the gas pedal a little.”
“uConnect doesn't work with my iPhone 5 for text messaging. Text messaging support is very limited. Also the maps on my NAV are VERY out of date and no updates are available still.”
