Charger SRT Hellcat Gets Wider & Faster
The new 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody has a need for speed. The new-look SRT Hellcat, delivering a top speed of 196 mph, is powered by the supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI Hellcat V-8 engine with 707 horsepower, 650 lb.-ft. of torque, and mated to the standard TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission.
The new and aggressive widebody exterior, standard on Charger SRT Hellcat and available on Charger Scat Pack, features new front and rear fascias with integrated fender flares, adding 3.5 inches of width over the wider wheels and tires.
The Widebody Package adds 20-inch by 11-inch wheels, wider Pirelli 305/35ZR20 tires, Brembo six-piston front calipers with two-piece front brake rotors, and unique suspension tuning with Bilstein three-mode adaptive damping, all combining to deliver improved performance on the street, strip and road course.
Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody runs zero to 60 mph in 3.6 seconds and a quarter-mile elapsed time in 10.96 seconds, pulling .96 g on the skidpad according to Dodge. The Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody runs 2.1 seconds faster than the vehicle it replaces on a 2.1-mile road course, equal to 13 car lengths after one lap.
Charger Scat Pack models deliver the most muscle for the dollar with the 392-cubic-inch HEMI V-8 engine’s naturally aspirated 485 horsepower mated to TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission, according to Dodge.
The Charger Scat Pack Widebody runs zero to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds and a quarter-mile ET in 12.4 seconds, pulling .98 g on the skidpad. The new Charger Scat Pack Widebody runs 1.3 seconds faster than standard Charger Scat Pack on a 2.1-mile road course, equal to eight car lengths after one lap.
