We Bid Farewell to 9 Cars You Won’t See in 2024 (2024)

When the clock strikes midnight on December 31, 2023, Dodge’s Brampton, Ontario, factory will cease production of the long-lived, and much beloved Challenger. While its sedan counterpart has a confirmed successor, the Challenger’s future is still technically up in the air. It’s likely that the teams at Dodge and Stellantis are going to keep the Challenger name alive somehow, but those in charge have yet to comment on the nameplate’s future.

Like the Challenger, Chrysler’s Hemi-powered sedan is seeing an exit, again. Chrysler’s 300 has come and gone over the years, so there’s no doubt the brand will revive the 300 again somehow. Just like the Challenger, the Chrysler 300 has apparently already ceased production, but will forever leave the Brampton, Ontario, factory at midnight on December 31, 2023.

Audi’s TT has been a staple of the lineup since its introduction in 1998. This small coupe is not making its way to 2024, but there’s always a chance the company could revive the name down the line.

It’s a bad year for fans of Audi coupes and convertibles, as the Audi R8 is officially going away. Just like its smaller stablemate, the R8’s successor is also up in the air. But even if Audi’s sports car doesn’t see a successor, it’s given Audi fans nearly 20 years of supercar fun. Of course, Audi could always look at platform sharing to fill the R8’s space, but only time will tell.

Though, there might be a catch for the Bolt hatchback fans.

With the battery-electric Fiat 500e now slated for US roads, the Fiat 500X’s departure should sting slightly less for Fiat fans. However, Fiat dealers are probably hoping the 500X sees a replacement to help flesh out its lineup in 2024.

Kia’s Stinger has been fatally stung. The rear-drive sedan won’t see a ‘24 model year—and only saw a single generation in production. Of course, with Kia’s EV push, there could be space for a battery-electric Stinger somewhere down the line.

Mazda’s battery-electric MX-30 isn’t exactly dead, but it’s dead to the United States: Mazda has decided to remove the short-range EV from its US lineup. This won’t affect most Mazda shoppers in the US, as the MX-30 had a limited market release, but it probably also means the plug-in hybrid Mazda R-EV isn’t making a trip to the United States. That might be a tough pill for rotary engine fans to swallow.

Nissan’s long-running Maxima upsize sedan reaches the end of the road, after more than four decades of production. Of course, like the Challenger and the Audi TT, Nissan’s Maxima nameplate should come back at some point. It’s just hard to say how, or when.
