First came the Hellcat, after that the Demon and now this B5 Blue 2019 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody. So, what is the buzz about this Redeye Hellcat? The answer is it is the best of the both, the Hellcat and the Demon.
The exterior does not deviates from the regular Challenger, except of the dual-snorkel hood and the wider fender flares. However, there are tons of technical improvements, which make this Redeye Hellcat, the best Dodge Challenger ever created, even better than the SRT Demon.
We will start with the engine, which actually it is a detuned Supercharged Chryslers 378 cubic-inch, 6.2 liter HEMI small-block SRT Demon V8 engine. Unlike the Demon, this engine with 2.7 liter Supercharger produces “only” 797 horsepower and 707 lb.-ft. of torque and it is equipped with TorqueFlite 8HP90 eight-speed automatic transmission.
It can do, from 0 to 60 mph in just 3.4 seconds, 1/4 mile run can cross in 10.8 seconds and has a top speed of 203 mph, which is the same as the Demon. Then it comes the price, the Redeye starts at $69,950, which is a lot less than the SRT Demon. The question is what is better to own the Demon or this new Redeye Hellcat?
