2021 Dodge Durango Hellcat

When you think about a Hellcat, you think about power and speed, and Dodge brings it to you with a 6.2-liter V8 engine that screams out 710 horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque which connects to a TorqueFlite eight-speed automatic transmission. There are also exterior design improvements such as an upgraded aggressive exterior that includes a forward-leaning profile with Charger Widebody design cues. These include a new front fascia, LED low and high headlamps, signature LED daytime running lamps, grille, rear spoiler, and wheel options. The Durango Hellcat also includes a performance-inspired interior with features such as a new driver-oriented cockpit with a new instrument panel, a five-times faster Uconnect system with a 10.1-inch touchscreen. All new this year is a Tow n Go package that comes with muscular front and rear fender flares and black Brembo six-piston brakes. You also get a best-in-class towing of 8,700 pounds.

The Durango Hellcat is designed to push the limits of what an SUV can be as it comes with performance improvements such as a new chin splitter, an updated engine cooler duct, and an air guide with a snorkel for cold air induction. The brand-new and extremely unique creates a highly improved aerodynamic balance with the front end design resulting in a significant increase in rear downforce of larger than 400 percent. The engineers of the Durango Hellcat have upgraded the massive SUV to improve handling with an improved suspension that includes more comfort in Auto mode and better handling in Track modes. There is also more responsiveness, with a 20 percent increase in complete rebound control. Finally, more stability is utilized when turning into corners thanks to a roll gradient of up to 5 percent.

With 710 horsepower at 6,100 rpm and 645 lb-ft of torque, the heart of the Durango Hellcat is delivering an unmatched, attention-getting performance while also providing refined and smooth power flow during the daily grind of driving duties or simply cruising down the highway. The engine has been specifically tailored to the Durango, ensuring that every time you step behind the wheel, it reliably handles the vigors of driving on the track for situated periods without having to de-rate its power outlet for higher temperatures. Other critical components of the Hellcat engine include a cast-iron engine block with water jackets located between the cylinders to optimize cooling. A forged steel crankshaft helps to harden bearing surfaces, and the piston-cooling oil jets, heat-treated aluminum-alloy cylinder heads, and sodium cooling exhaust valves help cool the engine and improve performance. 

On top of the fantastic driver capabilities, the Durango Hellcat comes with several technological advances. The driver-centric cockpit has been completely redesigned to include an instrument panel and front door uppers with new relocated memory switches for ease of access. Also included is a modern, wrapped, and accent stitched mid-bolster on the instrument panel, which is available throughout the entire Durango lineup. Continuing with the new features is a flat-bottom performance steering wheel with standard paddle shifters that are derived from the Challenger and Charger models. The interior also includes lighter color interiors with dark floors for contrast. Unique to the Hellcat are red-accented gauges and standard heated and ventilated Nappa leather front seats.
