The Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat is what you get when you cross a high performance engine with an SUV.
With the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat you get a brand new HEMI V8 engine with 710 horsepower and 645 pound-feet of torque that can generate a top speed of 180 miles per hour. That translates to 0-60 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds.
With a maximum speed of 14,600 RPM, the astonishing power of the 2.38-liter supercharger makes it one of the highest performing engines on the market.
When you’re race-ready, you can switch from the street to the track and customize your engine performance using our signature SRT Performance Pages and SRT Drive Modes through the 10.1-inch Uconnect touchscreen. It’s big and easy to read, and gives the entire dash and modern and streamlined look.
This monster gets there in style. The SRT Performance Hood and high-airflow grille are engineered for top-notch performance efficiency with a bold design. The front includes a lower valance cold air intake that produces maximum airflow.
The Durango Hellcat features stunning glosse black badges across the exterior and interior of the vehicle.
The vehicle comes standard with new 20×10-inch Lights Out wheels and Brembo six-piston front and four-piston rear brakes, which give you confidence you will be able to handle any situation. The boldly-designed Pirelli Scorpion Zero 295/45ZR20 tires grip the road with style and performance.
Combine LED auxiliary low beam lights and LED amber turn signals for a sight that other drivers will envy.
The inside is redesigned to have a more refined appearance, with distinctive red Nappa leather trim for a luxurious trip. And the SRT badging is here, too. The flat-bottom SRT performance steering wheel makes you feel like you are in a racecar, with easy-to-use and highly efficient SRT paddle shifters.
With the ability to haul over 1.5 times its own weight, the sheer strength of the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat is impressive. To be specific, its towing capacity is 8,700 pounds.
Starting at $82,000, there is a compromise in terms of mileage, with the Hellcat getting 12 miles per gallon in the city and 17 mpg on the highway. But the compromise is well worth it for the package you get in return.
For my money, this is a big win for Dodge and for the public because the level of performance and styling is second to none.
