Is a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Drag Pack Being Made?

Have you been wanting more power for the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat?  Is 707 horsepower just not enough.  For those that believe that, there is some good news.  Rumor has it that Dodge is putting together a new package to give the Hellcat even more performance power.

Torque News has the break down.  In it they discuss the possibility that Dodge is readying a new “Drag Pack.”  This rumor stretches back from last year and has been a hot topic with Hellcat fans.  One of the reasons for the strength of this rumor is thanks to the Dodge Demon.  That mighty muscle car is going to be limited to only 3,300, so it stands to reason that Dodge would want to use the technology of the Demon in something else.  And that is where the Hellcat Drag Pack could be coming from.

Elements of the Demon that could make the leap over to the Hellcat to increase performance could be something like the Air Grabber hood or similar tires.  Any one of the many reasons why the demon was able to pull off the incredible technological feats it was capable of could find themselves helping to bring the Hellcat back into the spot light with the addition of this drag pack.  If it exists, hopefully we’ll found out soon.  Until then, would you want to see a performance drag pack for the Challenger Hellcat?

SRT Dodge Challenger Hellcat Rumored to Debut This Weekend?

Rumors can be a tenacious thing, even more when the rumor is something car enthusiast want to happen. Take the Hellcat Hemi rumor. There was previous speculation as to what SRT would be doing for their next generation Dodge Challenger. The belief is that it will have the new Hellcat Hemi and thus would be the SRT Dodge Challenger Hellcat. While nothing offical has been said either way, recent developments have brought the Hellcat rumor talk back.

Torque News thinks that Chrysler and SRT may have a surprise up their sleeve for the upcoming 2014 Spring Festival of LXs in California. The festival is a place where drivers of a Charger, 300, Dodge Magnum, or the Challenger get together and meet. Chrysler has not specifically said there will not be a major announcement made.

No news is, well, no news in this case. However, that level of silence for a major event could mean something. This is the right crowd for the SRT team to stand-up in front of to marvel at their latest creation. There would be no better place to get the momentum started for a new generation of Challenger.

As with all rumors, though, take this one with a grain of salt, something Torque News is quick to point out. This very rumor was happening around the time of the 2014 North American International Auto Show and, obviously, it was not true. Still, you never know.
Will we see the new SRT Dodge Challenger Hellcat? Only patience will tell.
