And yet, somehow, the SRT Hellcat's flaws add to its charm - the relative lack of grip, the prodigious power, and the rather unpredictable body movements combine to create a muscle car that has surprises up its sleeve at every turn. The Widebody is a bit better thanks to its broader tires and its greater composure at higher speeds, but it can't quite overcome the Challenger's heft. It feels as big and as heavy as it is when you try to hustle it, while body roll isn't as well-contained as in rivals like the Mustang and Camaro. Through more acute bends, you quickly realize that the word "nimble" isn't part of the Challenger's vocabulary. Only more confined spaces in town will frustrate as the coupe does begin to feel its size. Together with the comfortable seats, it's a car you can live with every day. This car is a joy on the open road where there is enough space to easily accommodate its significant size.
On the plus side, for a sports car with this much power and scenery-blurring speed, the SRT Hellcat is surprisingly comfortable and supple. The Challenger's weight dictates much of what it does - and doesn't - do well on the road. You even get a Jailbreak plaque on the dashboard.
Over 20 categories are covered, including seats, paint colors, wheels, brake callipers, and more. Normally unavailable feature/color combinations can be had, potentially resulting in unique one-of-one cars. It unlocks some ordering restrictions and is ideal for customers who want to customize their vehicles. Lastly, a new Jailbreak option is becoming available, but only for the Redeye Widebody. In other news, Dodge has relaunched its Dodge Connection performance-parts program that was first offered in 1974 and will again offer mild to extreme warranty-friendly, dealership-installed driveline, suspension, and powertrain parts. No doubt realizing that these cars are very popular among thieves too, Dodge is making a deluxe security alarm standard equipment on all the 2022 SRT Hellcats. So it's perhaps not surprising that Dodge isn't making any wholesale changes to the Challenger SRT Hellcat models in their twilight years. Electrification will no doubt play a starring role in the new one, for better or worse. The news that the Dodge Challenger will be replaced at the end of 2023 is still fresh, so fans of the gas-guzzling supercharged V8 Dodge muscle cars have only two years left to buy one.
