2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat: The Most Powerful Sedan In The World! – Ignition Ep. 122
On this episode of Ignition, presented by Tire Rack, Carlos Lago tests the most powerful sedan money can buy: The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. Much like the Challenger Hellcat, this Charger packs an astonishing 707 hp from its supercharged 6.2-liter V-8. It is as absurd as it is functional, thanks to its two additional doors and comfortable backseat. But to find out if this sedan can do more than leave two long stripes of burnt tire for miles, we’ll need to run it through our standard set of tests, including a Hot Lap with Randy Pobst. Does the Charger Hellcat offer the same magic that we loved in the Challenger? Find out on this episode of Ignition! @CarlosLago

*2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat!*
On this episode of *Ignition*, +Carlos Lago tests the most powerful sedan
on the market: The 2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. Like the Challenger
Hellcat, this Charger packs a mighty 707 hp from its supercharged 6.2-liter
V-8. Does this four-door offer the same magic we loved in the Challenger?

I love all the youtube spread sheet racers in the comments. Hilarious.
First (although irrelevant) most of them will never be able to even afford
the Hellcat. Second, they fail to understand why it’s great. This is like
trying to explain why Aston Martins are amazing cars to someone who has
never driven one, you can’t explain emotion.
So I could buy a Subaru STI that also has 4 doors, will be drivable in the
winter, doesn’t make such annoying racket just to draw attention, and is
faster, for half as much money. Good to know!
I’ll take the Hellcat.
I’m not Asian enough to own a BMW and I don’t eat enough curry for a
Mercedes or Audi.
husband likes 707hp, wife likes 4 doors……… I’ll take it thumbs up
across the board!!!!
Hey do you guys think that the police will get any of these for their
fleets?
ok ok allow me to say that yes this car doesnt handle like an M5 or have
grace or poise , but thats not why someone would buy this car , Dodge hasnt
told anyone its supposed to handle well , i dont know why everyone is so
mad ?? yes its not the best car but it has alot of horsepower , its loud ,
and it looks mean . If i pull up in this your girlfriends pussy will be
much wetter than if i pull up in a “M5” that looks like 550i with a sports
package , YES FUCK YOU BMW FOR ALLOWING SOMEONE WHO PAID MUCH LESS LOOK
LIKE THEY HAVE AN M5 (ITS A BIG SLAP IN THE FACE TO PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY
HAVE AN M5 OR OTHER M CARS LIKE THE M4) . Maybe thats why everybodys mad ,
if i ask your 10 year old boy wich car he likes more . He’ll probably
choose the hellcat , if i ask him which one is faster , he’ll say the
hellcat . Everyone is mad because this car is actually fuckin cool . Allow
me to buy this car and smash just as much pussy as if i bought a Lambo
Gallardo . Fuck you guys in your 335i or 535i . And yes the interior looks
fucking ugly but when you are rich , you dont give a fuck , im gonna assume
all you pricks are rich because you all talk like you own M5’s . This car
gets pussy wet , much more than M5 at the stop light , and that is a BIG
reason why us men buy cars .
Why is the 1/4 mile time so bad if you managed to do 0-60 in 3.7 seconds? I
would expect more from 707 hp…
Is it possible for a human to fall in love with a car? YES! Challenger or
Charger Hellcat is at the top of my A list. Y’all can have your Stang’s n’
Maro’s. @ $65k, the Challenger and Charger is a steal! You would have to
pay for a Lamborghini Aventador @ over $500k (a Sports Car) to match the
level of horsepower and foot pounds these baby’s can crank out! European
vehicle manufacturers don’t understand what a “Muscle Car” is. They are
more into “Sport/Track Cars, Luxury Vehicles and Exotics.” The only thing
that can compare to a car in this category is another “Muscle Car” made by
an American branded manufacturer. Stop trying to compare cars from
different categories. Cars have categories for a reason! It’s what defines
that vehicle in that given space.
707hp and its out gunned by a 300Hp family car that cots 35k.. way to go
dodge
Why the hell is it over 2 tons??? (O.o) iron frame??? Lol

…: https://youtu.be/6xbtZUS3Vww
new best sedan will be the 2016 cts-v
or a pickup. come on ram build it. hellcat ram 1500. i don’t think they
have the trany to build it. gots to have it in 4×4. that much power in a
4×4 trany, blow the sockets right out the case.
America why are the interiors of your cars so ugly? You guys spend so much
time in a car but you design something what you could see in a base spec
1.0 VW Up
Here are the stats:
0–60 the E63AMG murders in 3.2 sec. The M5 3.7 sec. with launch control.
The Hellcat 3.7 sec.(motor trend) but Caranddriver estimate 0-60 is 3.4-3.8
sec. In other words its behind the benz but similar to an M5 or even better
depending on the drivers. How about a 1/4 a mile? Lets see: The M5 is
11.7-11.9 seconds depending how you launch it according to car and driver.
The E63 AMG 4MATIC ¼-mile IS 11.8-11.9 sec. Which means after 0 to 60 the
M5 beats the AWD benz in 1/4 mile. this could be because of the Dual Clutch
unit the M5 uses. And the Hellcat 1/4 mile is 11.1–11.4 sec. So the
hellcat will smoke this cars in a 1/4 a mile but lose to the Benz and
Panamera turbo in hitting 60mph and about similar with an m5
panamera turbo: Standing ¼-mile: 11.7 and 0-60 3.5 sec.
Audi s8 0–60 mph: 3.6 sec and ¼-mile: 11.9 sec
Here is another thing to keep in mind and its a fact:
Lap times the panamera turbo should be number 1, the M5 no.2 and benz no. 3
and the hellcat will finish last. The panamera handles better bcz of AWD.
Leep in mind among all these 3 cars, the M5 and Hellcat are overachievers
becz they are REAR WHEEL DRIVE.
Those Europeans cars are looking less and less impressive. Another sweet
car right out of Detroit!
well dodge funboys… Audi S8 (full size luxury sport sedan with
outstanding build and materials quality) Does quarter mile in the same 11.8
and 0-60 in 3.5 seconds while being heavier, it has less torque and less
horse power – which means having better MPG))) you know what in calls –
TECHNOLOGY))))
so whats going to happen to the viper?
2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat: The Most Powerful…:
http://youtu.be/6xbtZUS3Vww
Ma and Pa soccer practice do not need to be toodling around town in a car
with this much power. A family car…yeah, one that can take out the whole
family in one fiery wreck.
this is like M5? you must be disgracing the Dodge heiterage and it’s brand.
This is Beyond the M or AMG
I’m not sure the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat is comparable to the BMW M5.
Sure, they both have 4 doors and plenty of hidden power under the hood, but
as Top Gear says, the M5 has a feel of perfection to it. They didn’t say
anything about how the Charger feels when you drive it. From what I could
tell during the lap, it looked very difficult to handle that power well.
I also noticed they didn’t say anything bad about the car. It’s not really
a complete car review without the cons, right?
HEY AMERICAN CAR MANUFACTURERS, FUCK OFF WITH THE AUTO TRANNY ALREADY. WHY
WOULD YOU NOT OFFER THIS MASTERPIECE IN MANUAL
Has this guy completely forgot about the caddilac cts-v hennasy?
This is not the most powerful Sedan in the world. Not at all…
And the viper? What’s going to happen with him?
I thought the CTS-V was the “American M5”. It would be pretty rad to see a
shoot-out. The M5 was softened a bit, but I’ll still take the M5 over the
other two.
False! The Tesla p85d is the most powerful sedan money can buy
Due to ignorance, I can’t say much about this car. However, it looks like a
WRX that had a stroke and aside from the supercharger whine, it makes an
awful racket.
It just barely beat a WRX which has about 450Hp less… Good job…
Looks like it was built for people who are too poor and too stupid to
choose a second hand Quattroporte or Panamera.
This is really good a car that can compete with 12 cylinder cars & V10s at
a affordable price this is real value for your money $$
Thank you for this review. It definitely seems an impressive vehicle. It
sounds, looks from the front anyway and goes impressively in a straight
line at least, in a marvellous manner. I just wonder if the packaging for
lager people is up to the image. I know the Chrysler 300 doesn’t quite
match its looks. Also, is it expensive to maintain? Especially with tyres?
And what would be the longevity of the drive train if you took advantage of
its performance abilities on a semi regular time frame? Also, are the
plastics and build quality up to scratch? These are many of the areas where
the BMW M5 definitely excels. A comparison should absolutely be on the
cards for your channel. Also, thank you, thank you, thank you, for NOT
putting any bloody stupid music over the car noises when it is on the
track. I want to hear the damn car, not some stupid Muzak! And too bad it’s
not sold in Australia.
1 second faster than the 2.3l mustang?
I like how they showed its track results amongst all the 4 cyl cars, what
are you trying to say MT? 😉 I’d love to see a head to head with the new
CTS-V or M5 straight line and at the track.
Is it faster than E63 AMG or BMW M5 ?
family sedan? more like chick magnet
This or the E63//? I am leaning for the E63.
Charger is BACK! The last Charger Dodge made that I liked was from ’69.
What happened to Worlds Fastest Car Show? Just watched it this morning and
now its gone from the playlists
The charger is a good lookin sedan for 30k. This 60k version may be fast,
but it looks like a cheap sedan with blingy wheels. No way I would ever
shell out 60k for this. There are a lot of nice luxury sedans who are not
that far behind this car in acceleration times yet look way better. But its
still a good effort by dodge, just not handsome enough for that price.
Perhaps for people who dont care for styling. But who the hell doesnt want
a great look9ng car after they paid 60k for it?
People arguing about lap times when in real life you don’t give a fuck
about lap times, is not like when your going to the store you have to go
through a track race.
M5 is more balance ,refine and class. It’s more for a gentleman .I drive a
5 series for years never regret it.
Oh i want that car! The name is so cute. Hellcat. Hehe. The color is very
pretty too. Want.
