Get ready, world: The 707-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has officially been unleashed. But rather than just have the big coupes quietly arrive at dealers, Dodge has released this video, showing Hellcats loading up onto car carriers at Fiat-Chrysler's Brampton, Ontario plant. And yes, that is Mötley Crüe's "Kickstart My Heart" playing in the background. Of course.

This really is worth all the fanfare, though, considering Dodge will sell its ridiculously powerful, supercharged machine for just $59,995. And if the Challenger isn't quite up your alley, just remember, there's an equally powerful, 204-mph, four-door Charger Hellcat on the way...

Definitely agree they are pretty sweet.

I will say this, the C7 Z06 has a fiesty pony car to contend with.

At the strip or at the track, I think the Z06 will take it. The Hellcat still weighs too much IMO. Experienced driver though may be able to make it close at the strip

Stock for stock, possibly.

Modded, the Hellcat needs a massive rubber upgrade and suspension bits, and it'll carve corners too.
