Stellantis Mexico has introduced the 2021 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat to Mexico. The high-performance, three-row SUV starts at US$ 1,999,000 pesos, or US$ 99,921 at today’s exchange rates. By comparison, in the U.S. it caries an MSRP of US$ 80,995. Sitting at the top of the 2021 Durango range, which also includes the SRT, R/T and GT trims, the SRT Hellcat has a 3-year/60,000-km bumper-to-bumper warranty, and 7-year roadside assistance on the North American continent.
The performance SUV is available in red,
white, grey, black or blue, with 20-inch wheels shod in 295/45 Pirelli tires,
Hellcat emblems and optional central stripes in silver, gunmetal or black/red.
The 2021 Durango SRT Hellcat is equipped with a 10.1-inch touchscreen
infotainment system, Apple Carplay and Android Auto, leather upholstery, suede
headliner, sports pedals and carbon fiber accents. It also features ambient
lighting, a Harman Kardon premium audio, heated second-row seats, rear-seat
entertainment system, HVAC air vents for the second and third rows, and USB
charging ports.
What really makes it stand out though is
its supercharged 6.2-liter V8 that churns out 710 HP and 875 Nm of
torque and is coupled to an eight-speed automatic transmission and permanent
all-wheel drive. Dodge claims the 0-100 km/h sprint takes only 3.5
seconds, and that it can do 290 km/h. The quarter-mile is completed
in 11.5 seconds at 190 km/h.
The 2021 Durango SRT Hellcat is assembled
at the Jefferson Assembly Plant in Detroit, Michigan, alongside the rest of the
lineup.
