Throughout the years, the Dodge Charger has always been known to be a powerful car in its class.
In this guide, we’re going to list all of the fastest Dodge Charger models in terms of acceleration, top speed, and even quarter-mile times. But first, let’s start with the quickest of them all below.
What is the fastest Dodge Charger?
The fastest Dodge Charger is the 2015 to 2019 SRT Hellcat, which is capable of going 204 mph (328 km/h).
The fastest Dodge Charger from 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 km/h) is both the 2021 Hellcat Redeye and the 2015 to 2019 SRT Hellcat with a time of 3.4 seconds.
The 2015 to 2019 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat tops out at 204 mph (328 km/h) thanks to its 707hp supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8 engine.
This engine also enables the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat to achieve a 0 to 60 mph time of 3.4 seconds, which actually ties it with the Hellcat Redeye in that regard.
However, the SRT Hellcat only manages to cross the quarter mile at 11.4 seconds, which is 0.8 seconds slower than the Hellcat Redeye’s 10.6-second quarter mile record.
One of the big reasons for this difference in quarter-mile time is that the Hellcat Redeye has 90 more horsepower (797hp) than the standard SRT Hellcat (707hp).
The Fastest Dodge Chargers Ranked According to Top Speed
The 2015 to 2019 SRT Hellcat is the fastest Dodge Charger with a top speed of 204 mph (328 km/h).

Both of these are followed by the SRT Hellcat Widebody and the SRT 392 with 0 to 60 mph times of 3.6 seconds and 4.1 seconds, respectively.
In the table below, we have included available data of both modern and classic Dodge Charger models with the quickest 0 to 60 mph (0 to 97 km/h) times.
Which Dodge Charger has the fastest quarter-mile time?

The 2022 SRT Hellcat Widebody and the 2015 to 2019 SRT Hellcat take second and third place in the quarter mile with a time of 10.96 seconds and 11.4 seconds, respectively.

The New 2022 Dodge Charger SRT Jailbreak Edition produces 807 hp and has the most horsepower out of any Dodge Charger from the factory.
The 807-hp Jailbreak Edition is followed by the 797-hp SRT Hellcat Redeye in second place and the 717-hp SRT Hellcat Widebody in third place.
We have also listed several other noteworthy Dodge Charger models with the most horsepower in the table below.
Which Dodge SRT is the fastest?
The fastest Dodge SRT model is the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon with a quarter-mile time of 9.57 seconds. It also has a top speed of 211 mph (340 km/h) using the optional “Demon Crate” package.
The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon (often shortened to “Dodge Demon”) is one of the quickest production cars in the quarter mile thanks to its 840-hp supercharged V8 and its special drag radial tires.
However, not many people are aware that the Dodge Demon is actually capable of going over 200 mph once you avail of the “Demon Crate” and swap out its drag tires for ones better suited for top-speed runs.
Not only does the Demon Crate give you all sorts of tools and equipment for the track, but it also enables you to use the car’s second power control module to remove the 168-mph factory speed limit.
You can also view both the quarter-mile record and the top speed run of the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon in the two separate videos below.
Is the SRT or Hellcat faster?
The SRT Hellcat is faster than the SRT 392, which is the lower-level SRT trim. The SRT Hellcat has a top speed of 204 mph (328 km/h), which is 17 mph (27 km/h) faster than the SRT 392’s top speed of 187 mph (301 km/h).
The SRT Hellcat makes 707 hp thanks to its supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine, whereas the SRT 392 only makes 485 hp with its naturally-aspirated 6.4-liter V8 engine.
This difference in power enables the Hellcat to be a full second faster in the quarter mile (11.4 seconds) compared to the SRT 392 (12.4 seconds).
The Hellcat is also 0.7 seconds quicker (3.4 seconds) from a dead stop to 60 mph than the SRT 392 (4.1 seconds).
What is the most powerful Dodge Charger?
The most powerful Dodge Charger is the 2022 Dodge Charger SRT Jailbreak Edition. It produces 807 hp from its supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8 engine.
According to Dodge’s official website, the 807-hp Dodge Charger SRT Jailbreak is a notch above the original SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody.
Not only does it have 10 hp more than the 797-hp Hellcat Redeye Widebody, but it also gives customers access to tons of personalization options that are exclusive to the Jailbreak Edition.
