Frequently Asked Questions

What is the fastest Dodge Charger?

The fastest of the non-limited Dodge Charger trims is the Hellcat Redeye with its 797-horsepower HEMI V-8 and a 220-mph speedometer.3 This brutal model goes from 0 to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds2 while screaming, roaring, and giving you one of the best on-road experiences you may ever have. The Charger Hellcat has 717 horsepower and a 200-mph speedometer.3

What factors can affect the 0-60 mph times of the Charger?

The main factor that affects the Dodge Charger 0-60 mph times is how powerful the engine under the hood is. For example, the SXT and GT trims both have a 3.6-liter V-6 with up to 300 horsepower that gets them from 0 to 60 mph in 6.0 seconds.2 Meanwhile, the 485-horsepower Charger Scat Pack does 0-60 mph in 4.2 seconds.2

Which Dodge Charger has the highest top speed?

The Dodge Charger Hellcat Redeye has the highest top speed of the lineup, made plainly evident by the 220-mph speedometer3 that’ll be staring you down as you take your seat. The Charger Hellcat is wickedly fast, too, but it “only” has a 200-mph speedometer.3 By any other measure, that’d be insane; that’s just how fast the Hellcat Redeye is.
