When SRT are most powerful Dodge Challlenger ever announced, there was not lied to with the claim of ” more than 600 hp. And how. By default, there is a whopping 717 horsepower under the hood stopped, an absolute record.

Not that we had anything to the information above, SRT is holding his Hellepoes beautiful for themselves, but it is a free radical output. We know of no single non-supersportwagen factory so much power. With this move the Americans put the up to now fastest muscle car, the Mustang GT500 (671 hp), in the corner. The I wonder if we also have here a hp-race.

The Hellcat has a 6,2-litre V8 with supercharger, wa in fact, the 6.4 HEMI is, but with a slightly shorter stroke. Thanks to the supercharging be a maximum of 881 bandenrokende Newtonmeters on the rear wheels and fired, which the SRT the most powerful Hellcat is, until that of Melling. Oh wait, that never comes.

Incidentally, Ford still has the Shelby Super Snake with 861 hp, but actually, this is a limited opvoerpakket. A lot of bang for buck without first, at a very expensive tuner to go along, the Yanks make it possible. In the video below is the dragstripsentiment just whipped up, ‘MURCIA!

Update: because of the confusion in the comments the following. In the US and the UK are measured using SAE horsepower, also referred to as (b)hp. This is rounded to a factor of 1.34 kW. In the civilized world is using DIN horsepower, also known as PS, is measured. This is a factor of 1,36 kW. Just as we foot-pounds of torque converter in Nm, we also try to always and consistently the ability in PS express.
