The Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye has been unleashed as the world's most powerful saloon. With outputs of 594kW and 959Nm it's the world's most muscular mass-produced four-door, and also the fastest, with a 327km/h top speed.
The quarter-mile mark arrives in 10.6 seconds at a speed of 207km/h.
The Charger is powered by the latest supercharged 6.2-litre V8 Hemi engine that has also served in the two-door Dodge Challenger Hellcat coupe and Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk.
Dubbed “Hellcat”, this motor debuted back in 2014 with an unprecedented 527kW and 881Nm on tap.
In its latest guise the Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye guise is boosted to 594kW and 959Nm with the aid of a larger-capacity supercharger, and strengthened connecting rods and pistons among other tweaks.
There’s also adaptive damping Bilstein suspension with drive modes that include Auto, Sport and Track. Six-piston Brembo brakes do the stopping and the car features a Launch Control programme.
More fun can be had with the standard fitment of Line Lock, which engages the front brakes to hold the Charger stationary while you fry the rear tyres for heating up or plain hooliganism.
