“When you name an engine ‘Hellcat,’ it had better have the performance to back it up and a sound that wakes up the devil. The Hellcat’s signature sound is the unholy union of supercharger whine and 5.5 inches of unrestricted exhaust,” said Tim Kuniskis, President and CEO, Dodge and SRT Brands, Chrysler Group LLC. “Dodge/SRT fans can now make heads turn and people stop in their tracks, every time their phones ring.”

Available in dealerships later this year, the iconic muscle coupe, the most powerful muscle car ever, will be propelled by the new supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V-8 with an awe-inspiring output of 707 horsepower – greater than any V-8 engine in Chrysler Group’s celebrated history.

Excitement for the 2015 Dodge Challenger SRT with the HEMI Hellcat engine has been building since the vehicle was announced May 20 and the HEMI Hellcat ringtone is one of several ways Dodge is providing consumers a sneak preview of the new 2015 Dodge Challenger.

Fans can download a “Dodge Revolution” three-dimensional augmented reality app at iTunes and Google Play, providing them the opportunity to experience the 2015 Challenger through their own tablets or mobile devices. Users can change the vehicles’ color and wheels, take 360-degree tours of the inside and outside of the new vehicles, view videos, share their “customized” vehicles with friends, and drive their Challengers on virtual tracks.

In April, Dodge announced the “Double-Up” program for Charger and Challenger enthusiasts. Eligible customers can lease a 2014 Charger or Challenger for 12 months, and leave the dealership with a guarantee that when they return in a year and follow program rules they will have the same lease payment on a new 2015 Charger or Challenger.  Customers can take advantage of this innovative program now through Sept. 2, 2014.
