Hellcat Production Is Sadly Going to End in 2023

[lightbright]

Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis told Motor Authority that production of the supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 will end and be replaced by its upcoming eMuscle EVs.

• Dodge is ending production of the Hellcat in 2023, according to a report from Motor Authority. A Stellantis spokesperson contacted by Car and Driver declined to comment.
• The Hellcat supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 makes anywhere from 702 to 840 horsepower in cars such as the Challenger and Charger SRT Hellcats.
• Dodge is preparing an electric muscle car for 2024, and a concept will be revealed next year.

Dodge is preparing to launch an electric muscle car for 2024 under what it's calling eMuscle, and a concept car will be revealed next year. As if that news was hard enough for diehard muscle car fans, Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis confirmed to Motor Authority that production of its Hellcat supercharged V-8 will end the year before the electric car arrives.

The Hellcat supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V-8 engine makes anywhere from 702 to 840 horsepower and has been found in models such as the Dodge Challenger, Charger, and Durango SRT Hellcats (though only in the three-row SUV for one model year) as well as the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk and Challenger SRT Demon. Though the aforementioned report has no mention of the Ram 1500 TRX, we reached out to a Ram spokesperson who said "no comment." Funny, that's exactly how we feel.

An updated story

https://www.google.com/amp/s/insideevs.com/news/601453/dodge-challenger-charger-electric/amp/

UPDATE: Dodge will release a series of "Last Call" Challenger and Charger models for 2023 before discontinuing gas-powered versions of both models, which will transition over to pure electric vehicles starting in 2024.

The Dodge Charger and Challenger are two of America's most beloved muscle cars. Both are considered iconic thanks to their aggressive styling, attainable prices, and powerful Hemi V8 engines. And although the EV age is well upon us, many believe Dodge will be one of the last brands to make the complete switch to electric. The general consensus seems to be that Dodge's ICE muscle cars will live on until the late 2020s, even if they have to be sold alongside electric alternatives. However, this is not the case.

Currently, the majority of people expect Dodge's first EV to be an electric Ram 1500 that will compete with the Ford F-150 Lightning and Chevrolet Silverado EV. While an electric Ram is definitely coming (Dodge confirmed so last year) it might not be the brand's first electric vehicle. Instead, it appears the next-gen Challenger and Charger, which are due in 2024, will be completely electric.

A Dodge rep emailed Motor1 the following, in response to an article claiming the Hemi engine would return for future Charger and Challenger models:

"The story is incorrect. The Hemi in that platform [is] going away. The next generation will be BEV."

So there you have it, the next-gen Charger and Challenger (which are due in just two years) will seemingly be all-electric with no option of an engine. Dodge has been teasing a 2-door electric muscle car for a while now, but most people assumed when it eventually arrives it would be a separate model from the V6/V8 Challenger. However, it now appears it will replace the ICE Challenger. A brave move from Dodge.

We should find out more about Dodge's so far unclear electric plans in the following weeks. The brand is expected to show the aforementioned electric muscle car in concept form this August. Other models, like the Ram 1500 EV and Hornet PHEV crossover, may also be shown.
