I think it's a less tricky question than it appears at first.
If a President elect was charged with a felony, a trial would certainly take time, so, I believe whoever it was would have taken office. On that premise, an impeachment would follow, and the VP would take over if the President was convicted during the impeachment trial.
I know of nothing in the Constitution that would allow for a new election.
