The Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye offers package-wrapped supercar performance starting at $ 72,295 (MSRP), however setting the huge output and torque is tricky, so achieving the official specs provided by the proprietary brand of FCA needs a lot of skill. .
Ask Dodge what he can do and they will tell you that it takes 3.4 seconds for a 0-60 mph (0-96 km / h) sprint and 10.8 seconds for the quarter mile. Also, if you find a long enough straight, you will eventually hit 203 mph (326 km / h).
Review: Dodge Challenger Redeye channels his inner demon, can’t stop complaining
The Johnny Bohmer testing ground on Merritt Island, Florida is one of the few places on Earth where cars can reach their top speed in a safe and legal manner. The track is 3.22 miles (5.15 km) long and was used by the Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye to reach top speed. Mind you, the video was shot last year, probably when it had its half-mile muzzle velocity recorded at 151 mph (243 km / h), but it was only uploaded recently.
Before scrolling down to see what the muscle car looks and sounds like at breakneck speeds, we’ll remind you, in case you’ve forgotten, that it contains a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 that generates 797 HP (808 PS / 595 kW) and 707 lb-ft (959 Nm) of torque.
The Hellcat Redeye is no longer the best model in the Challenger family, as the new SRT Super Stock, which debuted earlier this week with the same engine, tuned to deliver 807 HP (819 PS / 602 kW), has taken over that paper.
Still, the 797 HP has plenty of power, and a 203mph v-max should not be detected. So did you manage to reach that number?
