The engine

Hellcat HEMI

Supercharged 6.2L V8

A supercharged pushrod V8 that delivers a relentless, whining tidal wave of low-end torque and a wide-open exhaust roar, turning a full-size pickup into a desert-storming muscle truck.

Built by Stellantis (formerly FCA) and engineered by the SRT performance group; the Hellcat name follows SRT's tradition of naming engines after WWII military aircraft, honoring the Grumman F6F Hellcat naval fighter.
