Really, How Fast is the Hellcat?

The Hellcat is one impressive vehicle. With either 707 horsepower and now the Redeye’s 797 horsepower, the Hellcat was built for one purpose. And that purpose is pure speed. Are you a speed demon? Come see us at Landers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Norman, Oklahoma to get behind the wheel of a Hellcat!

Dodge states that the Hellcat can reach a top speed of 204 miles per hour. That’s some serious speed. The 2021 Dodge Charger Hellcat Redeye Widebody is touted as the World’s Fastest and Most Powerful Mass-Produced Sedan. It’s also the World’s Fastest Four-Door Muscle Car. You don’t get these awards without having some serious power under the hood to back up those claims.

Sure the Hellcat is faster than a lot of other cars on the road, like a city-owned Crown Victoria, but it’s also faster than a few other big names in the game. The Hellcat is faster than a Lamborghini Diablo. This mid-engined V12 supercar falls 2 miles per hour short of the Hellcat when it comes to top speed comparisons. The Lamborghini Gallardo, Ferrari F50, Ferrari 458 Speciale, Porsche 911 Turbo S, and “Godzilla” Nissan GTR all fall short of the Hellcat when it comes to ultimate speed.

Want to know something even crazier? The Hellcat is faster than an aircraft. Well, actually several. The average top speed of a Helicopter is only 160 miles per hour so the Hellcat can squash a Helicopter in a straight-line race. There have been several internet videos putting the Hellcat against a plane and while that is a fun race to watch, usually the plane bests the Hellcat in the end.

In any test, the Hellcat is truly an amazing machine. The best part? The Hellcat is extremely affordable compared to all the other offerings mentioned above! Speed freaks rejoice and come see us at Landers Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Norman, Oklahoma to hear the glorious supercharged V8 roar to life!
