Let’s face it, adding the widebody option to your
Dodge Challenger Hellcat isn’t going to turn it into a Lotus but it will make
it handle -and look- a lot better. What Dodge did is basically offer the
bodykit of the Demon as an option to Hellcat customers; this includes fender
flares that add 3.5 inches to the width of the body while the tracks are also
wider by 1.6 inches at the front and by 2 inches at the rear.
The new Dodge Challenger Hellcat Widebody is also
running on a square tire setup, meaning 305-section tires all around to provide
more grip than the standard narrow-body Hellcat. Power is still coming from the
frankly monstrous supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V8 that pumps out 707 hp and
650 lb-ft of torque. A manual six-speed transmission is standard but customers
can always go for the eight-speed automatic option.
