Moparts member Stephen Cook snapped several pics of this cool white/red 2015 Dodge Challenger R/T yesterday at Portland International Raceway. This is one of several Challengers that will be made available to the press. We will be heading down to Portland the week after next to drive these cars–including the awesome new Hellcat! Can’t wait! Stay tuned for more!
Now that the cat is out of the bag (sorry), Dodge is only too happy to discuss that engine (except horsepower ratings), styling cues and performance features of the SRT Hellcat. Find more info at Street Legal TV. Video after the jump!
There have been several video’s showcasing the 2015 Challenger Hellcat’s furious active exhaust. Find such examples here and here. Now it’s time to listen to the source of that anarchy. As found on autoevolution. Video after the jump!
A group of Challenger SRTs, doing some (high altitude?) testing in Colorado, were nice enough to demonstrate the different exhaust notes between the 6.4 and the 6.2 Hellcat. Hint: the Hellcat is red. Find more info at autoevolution. Videos after the jump.
Dodge has released more information and photos of their new supercharged powerplant. One little tidbit: “The fuel system has an in-tank pump that accommodates variable pressures, half-inch fuel lines and eight high-flow injectors that can drain the car’s 18.5-gallon fuel tank in just 13 minutes when the engine is running at full power.” Strangely, that should not be impressive but it is. Find more info at MotorAuthority. More pics after the jump!
The 2015 Challenger SRT Hellcat has an active exhaust system that limits decibels at low rpm but becomes less restrictive as you get into higher revs. Check out autoevolution for more info. Videos after the jump!
Finally! Street Legal is reporting that Dodge has confirmed that the Hellcat will debut in August in a Challenger SRT. The Charger SRT Hellcat will be released in January. Not much official info about the supercharged 6.2L Hemi but Street Legal has done some educated speculating.
Update: Motor Trend Calls BS on these Spy Shots
LeftLane has some photos of what appears to be the 2015 Challenger Hellcat, replete with bulging hood and cold air intake. Now that the “run-of-the-mill” 2015 Challengers have been released, they seem to have relaxed their guard re the front and rear covers. The unique hood is a tip off to something special lurking beneath. You can also see SRT on the wheel centers with some serious Brembo brake calipers behind. More pics after the jump!
