2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat - WR TV POV Test Drive
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
- It’s no secret that Dodge’s new 707 horsepower Hellcat power plant has caused quite a stir among performance car enthusiasts. When we headed to Portland earlier this year to drive the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, we came away with a lot of reasons to be excited. Considering that the Charger and Challenger share a nearly identical platform aside from the coupe’s shorter wheelbase, it comes as little surprise that the driving experience between the two is fairly similar. Still, with four doors, the Charger serves a different purpose in Dodge’s lineup, and the automaker has made a concerted effort to give the Charger its own unique characteristics that complement its sedan configuration and the role it will play for potential buyers. To get a better understanding of exactly what that entails, we headed to Washington D.C. and nearby Summit Point Motorsports Park in West Virginia to see for ourselves.

Never get tired of hearing that supercharger whine, absolutely love the charger hellcat! what an amazing machine!
No. Dodge and anything made by Chrysler is objectively crap. Especially since Fiat bought them and stick their even worse parts into it.
@@StopFear shut up you cant afford it lol
@@StopFear bruh is that comment even nessacary?
That car isn't made for the track. That car is made for going to work, doing the groceries and driving your kids to the training; and on the way if some fool comes up at the traffic lights with his m3 or whatever, wanting to do some quarter mile, you gonna show him one of the best looking taillights ever built, while your kids can wave him goodbye.
Good one lmao 😂😂😂😂
This car weighs 2000+kg xD. Even with how much power there is, its really just a drift machine, too much weight to pull.
Chill Skill THE LIE YOU TELL!!
better car than the 2 door shit boxes like the camaro mustang and anything along those lines hahah
@R Λ M P Λ G Ξ T Ξ R M I N Λ T 0 R You realise kg is different from lbs right? It weighs 4500 LBS, not KG. If it weighed that much in KG's it'd be almost twice as heavy as a heavy duty tow truck.
These Hellcats are works of art. Just so amazing that these things exist, even if I never own one
Probably the only respectful " American" car
@@fbyi2940mopar all the way. these other brands in america use to be good but their era has definitely ended. it seems even then, and the ones they have now, dodge has a long way to go. im scared they messed it up with the EV though
@@anthonyconn3062 Dodge’s era is the only one that’s dead lol, Ford brought its V8 into a whole new Mustang generation and Chevy’s taking on the world with the Corvette. Dodge is going where, into the EV and 6 cylinder world now? It’s crazy how within a decade, Dodge went from one of the hottest brands to a shell of its self
@@Justin_GFM not just crazy.. its sad. muscle is no longer muscle from them. thank god for the Gt500
I can't believe this thing is starting at 60,000. That interior looks quite nice. Only problem I have is that no manual is offered, and I think the Charger looks much better than the Challenger.
Why are you saying that ? The Charger and Challenger are too different type of vehicle you can't compare them
Maxime platordu92@hotmail.fr Pretty sure he can still prefer the looks of one over the other haha
There is a manual, there is a test drive video on this very channel with a manual Hellcat..
No. This is a charger hellcat. No manual transmission in this model. The challenger hellcat has both transmissions available.
Brennonicolini that's true.. read "Challenger" in the title.. :P
I probably wouldn’t listen to music while driving one of these because how amazing that supercharger sounds 😫😍🔥
Car sounds amazing, performs like a scalded cat. Love everything about it.
Yes! Sounds aggressive !
The devil cat from hell! lol
The Auto is an awesome transmission .
That engine note is EPIC!
I'm in love. 6.2L with compressor and this output of power. Sick sound and filling of this thing.
I would be terrified (in a good way) driving this monster
right
+Blaze Flame I'd finally be able to orgasm without touching myself
I'm so glad this car exists.
Complete package when it comes to a quality vehicle. And the hellcat version is just the cherry on top! 👍👍
You got some BALLS doing this in the rain man
People don't seem to realize that it's wet and that if he fucking floors it he'll end up in a fucking tree so quit hating. G-d
Love it when that SC sound creeps on and gets louder! Sounds like a windup toy from hell! :D
Great day for driving a 700 hp car, rainy curved roads....
Dad is going to be pissed!
Taking a 700+ hp sedan out on narrow, wet, winding roads takes some serious balls and skills.
Should have maximized the speedometer readout. Couldn't really see what was going on speed-wise.
That S/C whine is intoxicating! If this car comes with a manual... :O
Damn it looks/sounds so nice!
My dream car 😍😋
If I had that car my license would be suspended for ever LMAO
jland904 lmaoooo
Dude I'm sure you'd like a redo in drier conditions!
keep up the great work ... I love this youtube channel, I love that there's no talking no music no nonsense ... just driving and feeling the car out. Thumbs up!
Beautiful piece of technology and engineering
They need to bring back the AWD r/t ....
I might be wrong since I've never owned one but thinking in getting one as a starter before I get my GTR. I feel like this car even at 50mph if you floor it it'll lose traction and spin everywhere....like there's just too much power in the back wheels. Idk I night be wrong.
So what do you guys like better. The Manuel 6 speed or the automatic 8 with paddles?
I'd rather get the 8 speed probably easier to control when going balls out
I prefeer the 6speed manual , cuz the manual has too much fun at driving . I don't know why i hate the automatique
Salah Bensalah dude.. if you think that car with 707hp could be 'boring' to drive because it's an automatic, then you're wrong...
LISTEN TO THAT KITTY PURRRRR
Rrq3tq41314 146737
Ryheyy3yey
Beautiful interior 10/10
The sound omg 👌
Sounds just as good as the Challenger
same engine, just in a different body, why wouldn't it?
Easy with that beast in the rain. Good job FCA well done.
Nice interior I might add and nice engine sound also lol.
This test driver is burning some serious gas, lol.
2000 devire düstüğünde dehşet horluyor ya ❤
That traction control at 2:25, tho. Technology is so rad.
Chris Souers He turned it of
yeah later if you look on the dash it was flashing a yellow traction control light. it was freaking out the car has so much power and the rain didnt help
Really this demon summoning car only cost half of m5
I feel like I would die if I had one of these because it has so much power the wheels would go crazy I'll spin out of control and hit another car going on the opposite direction than die within a couple hours of owning it
Ye
more videos, this car is awesome!
It must seriously suck to drive an insanely fast car like this, and to live in a country with speed limits :3
Wicked fucking car! I am normally a Chevy guy, but this thing is just so wicked it makes giggle just looking, and listening to it on TH-cam 😍🙈
I bet this guy gets so much attention
This is my next vehicle to buy for 2015 yee :)
66 Grand :]
A Black and Red Key ;)
707 HP :D
ZF 8 Speed with paddle Shifters ^_^
22 MPG :O
202 MPH top Speed (OMG)
I mean this is One of the Few if not the only Stock Factory Fastest Sedan on the planet with a warranty (Bragging Rights Bebe)
Regrettably I cant afford it so i'll get the Super Bee RT scat pack yeaah!
Man this car looks good.
My gosh that is sick. I want one so bad when I'm older
These are the videos I like good job on the video
I got to have one of these cars.
Geneva Williams where should I pick you up from?
Geneva Williams oh I'm in Newport news, VA. I think that's far?
Geneva Williams if you get one before me don't forget about me.
My dream car!
Well shit on my chest and call me Carl. Perfection!
This is one badass sedan.
I love it! Such a beautiful looking and sounding car!
Actually I have that issue of keeping it planted on dry ground. I took out the throttle delay with a sprint booster and it's kind of touchy. Gotta be careful in these things. That's the kind of power I like.
By the way, did you use the "red" key or the "black" one
Torrey B I'm guessing they only give the black one out..
wantsanewvehicle LAME.
Red.
Winding Road Magazine
ah cool.. surprised :D I guess you can see it at 0:12 seconds... I missed it the first time.
What's the red key and black key? :o
I HATE how they made the back end look EXACTLY like a dodge dart -______-
It doesnt
Someone needs an eye exam. It does not look exactly like a Dart. It looks much better than that.
Get an eye exam dude
*The back of the Dart looks like this car.
GodzillaFX Right. Those tail lights started on the Charger well before the Dart was released.

Hell yeah
M5 killer!
I want to see this in a head to head competition on the race course with a BMW M-5. For the price, it's hard to see buying any other full size four door sedan.
Hey checked on this and they are only making like 1300 of the hell cat. I tryed to obtain one and dodge said if you haven't ordered it yet and paid for it in full than I have no luck. Plus the first five have been sold at auction for around 800,000. Good luck getting one. And yeah Jay Leno has one and he paid well over 200, 000 for his. All for charity.
AMAZING CAR!
this car is vicious
Oh my goodness listen to that roar
just imagine if dodge came up with the Ram hellcat or the Durango hellcat
is the charger hellcat faster than the dodge challenger hellcat
That sounds the bullocks! Hopefully want to import the challenger hellcat to the UK!
Im saving up every cent i just got my licences and this car is beautiful in looks sound just amazing
borborbor, that's deep sound
Dam got to 80 in about 4 seconds fucken sweet!
Why are radios "already on" in most of the car reviews? Whoever delivers them nds2B told to shut everything off B4 leaving the car! Hearing a loud radio blaring first thing the engine starts, doesn't enhance the TH-cam experience.
The Charger finally looks decent. I would have never purchased their previous models.
I will have an rs7 or hellcat charger for sure
I want to test drive that thing i drive and park ram trucks all day lol
you're right I felt I was in the car, and was afraid we might run into a slow moving hay wagon.
sorry for some by the sstupid question that i will, this car can be driving without the paddle shifters?
It seems he or she was afraid to drive fast. Shoot I would be too knowing I'm driving a 700+ horsepower car on a damp ground.
I don't know if you're trying to be politically correct or something but if you can't tell that's a he we've got a problem
He's not on a track he's driving on wet and narrow bumpy roads
yeah let me drive a 60K car on slippery roads....i had a 12 r/t and it slides all over the fkn place when its wet.
I was thinking the EXACT thing!!
Why didnt u push it to the limit, I wanted to see that so badly, struggling to hold 707hp in control :(
I'm sure he couldn't...it was wet out.
vennie brice
I know :(, thats why it makes me so sad ;(
Cold AND wet. 707 HP, Summer tires, RWD... bad combo! I'd be sweatin' ha ha.
Ian Clancy Dodge really needs to offer better tires on these beasts at least as an option.
It's never worth taking the risk on public roads, that much power, you don't know what could go wrong.
Whats the best state to drive this car in? Or what are a few good states?
To use the paddles do you have to be in 'M' mode or can you drop up or down a gear anytime while in D?
So when is the redo, as u obviously can't open it up from a roll with this kinda HP? Sweet charger sound in that charger!
I want one!!
How is the challenger R/T at 90k miles? What’s the review?
best sound!
Route 340 in WV/VA near Charles Town and Berryville
Can i get one of these in the UK? And if so would it be practical in terms of price mileage etc?
Did it have auto matic wipers?
what a handful
where were u driving at it seems peaceful around there
GTR for the weekend and this for commuting to work lol : )~
how are those seats?? I want to order that for my 2015/16 Challenger SRT. o_o
He gets to drive it but there's not even a release date on it! Do you know when it's coming out?
1st quarter 2015
I like the sound when the car run so fast!
+maximogfe I Like The Wine From About 3500 RPM
Imagine towing a big trailer with it 😆😮🙃🤩👍🏻
2:29 no traction ⛔️
I have always had one question about these built in NAV systems like this car has plus a lot of the other vehicles as well, can you be able to actually change the voice on these like saying maybe something like a Sargent in the army or some other funny character?
This video would be lovely if the driver actually put the vehicle to its limit and red lined it through every gear and actually used the engine for what it's made for.
you simply cannot do that safely on public roads especially in the rain a drag strip is where that belongs.
As a hardcore Mopar lover all I can say is the concept was nice, but these cars( including the 392 Scatpack versions) all need to be AWD! A 3.6 AWD Pentastar version with a Ripp supercharger would be a better daily driver!
the dash reminds me of a supra's u have everything pointed towords u like ever thing only belongs to u..
Because it does...
I need one.
I'd go with the standard srt. The supercharger reliability and extra cost isnt necessary for me.
Wow....wet roads still. You had to be bummin'
True perfection,bravoo!
What exhaust ??
