Mohammed Iftikhar Hanif, 27; Jawaad Hussain, 24; Asif Ali, 25; and Adil Mota, 26, are all accused of using threatening, abusive or insulting words, or behaviour, with intent, likely to stir up racial hatred.
It is alleged that they shouted antisemitic abuse from a car travelling as part of a convoy in St John's Wood, north London on May 16.
They were charged via postal requisition on September 16 and will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on October 6.
