Unprecedented demand for the hugely powerful Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcat versions has put production levels well behind the order book. With more than 9000 orders taken for the 707hp American muscle cars, and only 2200 actually delivered, Dodge has decided to suspend any further orders until supply catches up.

The Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has blown its North American muscle car rivals into the weeds following the announcement of the astonishing full details of its hugely powerful V8 engine. With 527kW of power and 880Nm of torque on tap from its supercharged — a brand-first — 6.2-litre Hemi V8 engine, the SRT Challenger range-topper edges out the latest Shelby GT500 Ford Mustang and its 493kW punch. Even SRT’s own Viper V10 ‘only’ musters 476kW.
