2017 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Review

 What's New for the 2017 Dodge Challenger Hellcat?

The Dodge Challenger Hellcat rocked the industry when it was introduced in 2015 as the fastest, most powerful muscle car of all time. If you're looking for an incredible retro-inspired sports machine with a whopping 707 horsepower and a blistering zero to 60 time of just over three seconds, look no further. Here are the updates Dodge introduced for the 2017 Challenger Hellcat

Technology fans will be happy to note that the 2017 Challenger Hellcat features the latest version of the UConnect infotainment system. This update now supports smartphone integration via both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Through UConnect, drivers can access timing, g-force, and a wealth of other performance data. Another new feature for 2017 is the introduction of a black key, red key, and valet key. Only the red key allows you to access the full power of the engine, while the black key limits the driver using it to 500 horsepower. The valet key further dampens the power to prevent others from taking your Hellcat for an unauthorized spin.
