It’s the battle you’ve been waiting to see. The 2021 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye goes up against the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach 1 in a fight for supremacy on the track. Which of these two iconic muscle cars will reign supreme?
Equipped with a supercharged 6.2-litre HEMI SRT Hellcat V8 engine, the Challenger delivers a mind-blowing 797 hp and 707 lb-ft of torque. Paired with RWD for optimized control around corners, it can zoom up to 326 km/h (203 mph) and go from zero to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds. Mated with the TorqueFlite 8-speed automatic transmission, you will barely feel the gears shift.
On the other hand, the Mustang uses a much smaller 5.0-litre V8 motor that pushes out 480 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. As the top-tier trim, that’s nothing compared to the Challenger. With a maximum speed of 299 km/h (186 mph) and an acceleration time of 4.2 seconds, this pony cannot win this race.
