Default World's most powerful sedan..
Will be a Dodge not an M5 for E class AMG..

2015 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat - Proof Dodge Will Offer World's Most Powerful Sedan - Road & Track

Quote:
The Hellcat-ization of the Charger is spelled out in the engine’s SAE J1349 certification filing. J1349 is a voluntary third-party-witnessed test that manufacturers can take part in, and it’s the only way to get an engine’s horsepower and torque numbers certified by the organization. Since Chrysler chose to list the Charger on the document, it means they’re interested in certifying the power output of that engine for that car.

It is bad ass for sure, but I can never get past the fact that it's a Dodge. Don't get me wrong, I am a fan of the old Charger's, Cuda's, and Challengers, but even at that, it is still a Chrysler product.

Anybody can build a powerful engine these days....Good luck creating a powertrain that can handle the power, worthy of a warranty.

Dodge will probably protect the drivetrain with 8" wide wheels in back and void the warranty if you put wider ones on.

I like the Challenger, if they would chop some weight off its fat ass.

I can't remember if it was this weekends Mecum Auction or another show that had a match-up between a proto Hellcat and '70 Hemi Cuda...The idiots from Gas Monkey were racing them on a drag strip. The Hellcat walked off and left the Cuda in the dust.

It would make for an awesome over the counter crate motor.
