The 2020 Dodge Charger Widebody: Family Sedan Meets Muscle Car
The 2020 Dodge Charger Hellcat is the most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world.
The Dodge lineup of muscle cars has been evolving since the 1960s and the Charger has seen several iterations over the years and transformed into the family muscle car sedan in several body styles since 2006.
This bad boy is designed and engineered to push the boundaries of what a four-door family sedan can be. You can’t get a production car with more horsepower and it’s the fastest American muscle car, powered by the supercharged engine with 707 horsepower. The new 2020 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Widebody delivers a top speed of 196 miles per hour (mph), continuing its reign as the most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world.

Can you imagine piling the kids into this at school for all their friends to see, the roar of the motor threatening to race (and beat!) all the fellow family cars in the pick-up lineup? I imagine my kids would be thrilled to be the center of attention in every parking lot.
