The End Of Muscle Cars | 2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Jailbreak

2023 is the last year Dodge is making the Challenger and Charger Hellcat with the magnificent 6.2L Supercharged Hemi V8. After this it's all electric so today we pay homage to the last Hellcat to be made, the 2023 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Jailbreak.

It started in 2015 with the first Hellcat and it's 707HP which was ground breaking at the time, fast forward to today and the Jailbreak has 807HP (Same as a Demon) and 707Tq.. It's an absolute tire shredding animal and I love it! It was fun while it lasted.

Thanks to LW automotive for providing the car in todays video, it is currently for sale here:

Glad to see you back, Mike. You’re one of the realest ones out here. So hard to relate with these other guys that purchase a quarter million dollar car every other week.

Just bought this for my wife. She is just learning what she has. She is like a little kid. It is awesome that she is smiling for the same reason you are!

This is so sad. I drive an R8 and I’m so disappointed that they won’t be making them anymore. It’s such an amazing machine as Im sure the Hellcat is. This world just sucks more and more everyday. Electric… blah boring. Great video man. I’d love to get my hands on one of these 😊

I have this exact car.. the thing is when you learn the car you’ll know when the tires are wanting to make it float. I suggest to anyone who loves muscle cars don’t be afraid of them but learn your car and what it does and do not play with it if you aren’t comfortable because this is a BEAST

[kensnyder]

I agree with you Mike! I don't care if an EV has a 1000 HP, they will never be the same! Pisses me off. The government messing with the American I'm glad you have the TRX. Why can't we have both? That way folks that want an EV, 4 cylinder, can have that as well. 😪

Great car. Just bought a 2023 SRT Jailbreak. What a fun car. Got the F8 Green. Turns heads when it is still and then you start this monster up. BAM !! The V8 and the supercharger sound can't be beat !!!

[timanglin]

Loved this! I’m super disappointed in the way the industry is shifting. I just don’t think EV’s are going to be as much fun🙁

[MrHellz]

Welcome back Mike!!! Awesome to see you back at it!!

[jacobmosley]

In 2015 I bought dodge challenger rt plus. Like he said all those hellcats started coming out. For 8 years I had to watch everyone have fun in their hellcat. I just got a new 2023 Dodge challenger hellcat srt! Can't wait! To join the club..

Yes, you're back! I'll keep praying for your family. God bless you and your family.

[kevinlineberger]

Welcome back Mike, great to see your excitement for American muscle!

[danielbukowski]

As an EV driver myself - couldn’t have said it better. A muscle car is all about the noise and it’s really a sad ending to a wonderful era of beautifully singing cars. These cars will appreciate in value like crazy.

Amazing video!! You did the car justice with your video Mike!

[MuddyTubMedia]

It’s crazy that these have 275s in the back. My 370Z has 275s. My Camaro SS had that from factory with 455 horsepower and they weren’t wide enough for that car with summer tires. Having the widebody is basically a must if you want to hook up at all in a hellcat.

[scottthompson]

It was an honor to see you at LW yesterday man. You’re incredible

[clipvue]

I agree 💯 with you. The test drive makes me feel as if you are the new owner. What a beast of a machine.

[prince_e]

So is this 717 horsepower or 807? I have a jailbreak at the dealership and am getting mixed information on it

[markurbancowboy]

The car in this video is the Jailbreak 717hp and 656ft-lbs version, it's not the 807hp Redeye or Super Stock engine. Look at the supercharger and belt. No green belt, and no Redeye supercharger logo.

[evielknievel]

I have an 89 Fox . In the summer I don't use the AC because the sound( like you said) is music to my ears. I believe its the same with this beast. Great video !

[willemvandernest]

Mike that car fits you like a glove brother. It's black it's fast it's loud and it's insane. It ticks all the boxes. Personally I would have loved to see a Cuda version of these cars but Dodge decided to take a dump on a really really good car that just needed a 10 speed auto and fatter tires and a upgraded dash. Expect Dodge sales to fall into the ground in 2024
