Which is faster scat pack or srt

Or maybe the answer is totally obvious.

By now, we all know the headline feature for the 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat. 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI (say that in your deepest, macho-est voice) V8. 707 horsepower — or 717 if you get the Daytona 50th Anniversary Edition — and a 0-60 time that would embarrass most sports cars. In a family sedan. That’s all great, but it’s just one of the options that continues to define the Charger lineup for this new model year.

Another big -engined option is the even more massive 6.4-liter V8 Scat Pack. Although this time it’s naturally-aspirated, you still get 485 horsepower and 475 lb-ft of torque. Both the Scat Pack and SRT Hellcat mate up to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Both cars also get the Widebody treatment for 2020, allowing buyers to save nearly $20,000 when buying the Scat Pack instead of the Hellcat. With all the differences between the two, which is the better buy? In this video, Roman compares the two point-for-point to find out.

A new look with the Widebody

The 2020 Dodge Charger offers the Widebody treatment strictly on the Scat Pack and SRT Hellcat. That adds new front and rear fascias, those massive fender flares, and SRT-tuned Bilstein adaptive suspension. Thanks to the 3.5-inch wider fenders, Dodge also fits 305/35 ZR20 Pirelli P-Zero tires, giving the cars more grip on the street. Both still have more than enough power to light up the rear tires though, should the mood take you.

For its part, the $71,140 and up SRT Hellcat Widebody is the fastest production sedan you can currently buy. Its top speed is 196 mph, and it can sprint from 0-60 in 3.6 seconds. The Scat Pack is ever so slightly slower, making the run in just 4.3 seconds. One performance change specific to the Hellcat Widebody, however, is electric power steering. The driver can calibrate the steering feel through the SRT Performance Pages.

What about equipment?

With either the 2020 Dodge Charger Scat Pack or SRT Hellcat, you still get FCA’s 8.4-inch Uconnect 4C system. A 19-speaker Harman Karson audio system is available in both models. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come standard across the 2020 Dodge Charger range. As far as comfort features are concerned, there are mainly cosmetic changes that separate the two cars, but both offer a better degree of practicality since they are still large sedans.

Of course, the Charger SRT Hellcat offers up some serious punch with all that power. Remarkably, though, both big V8 options manage between 22 mpg (Hellcat) and 25 mpg (Scat Pack) on the highway. With the base 3.6-liter Pentastar V6, which still puts out nearly 300 horsepower on rear-wheel drive SXT models, manages 30 mpg on the highway. Not bad for a car that’s spent nearly a decade in its current form.
