Who's third grade class is this?

LMFAO @ 21MPG's with a 8speed.... thats a slap in the face at Chrysler...

Its a 800 hp "?" supercharged v8. Why is that a slap in the face to Chrysler? You have to understand gear ratios to understand squeezing 21mpg out of that motor is damn impressive. Even if it is another Chrysler piece of shit.

because with an 8 speed (typically 1-6 will be pulling/driving gears) 7 and 8 are cruising/OD. I am willing to bet (never once looked up anything hellcat so bare with me on this) that in 8th gear @ say 70mph that car should be under 2k rpm's.

the blower isnt even boosting, and the car is just above idle. it should get more then 21mpg's unless chrysler failed yet again and the car really weight 1K lb's more then what they stated it weights and in this case the mpg it does get really makes sense...

I am also willing to bet that car has cylinder deactivation ( i believe it has it for valet parking) so its even more of a "youre kidding me, right" thing when you see things like 8 speed/ 4 cylinders less and 21 mpg's.

Doesn't make sense if it runs on 4 cyl's during highway driving and only gets 21. Seems it probably runs all 8, just lowers rpm from the higher gears.

I'm not much of a muscle car guy, but it's interesting to see how these manufacturers are starting to try and get the 'best of both worlds' when it comes to high performance V8's.

Corvettes have had 500hp+ and 22mpg+ for years... glad to see others are catching up

can't even pass emission tests

my point exactly. I swapped cars once with a friends C6Z and while most of my dialy commute (70%) highway and still managed to get 24-25mpg's.

this thing and the camaro have the cd of a pickup truck.

500 hp and 700 hp are much different things my good sir

The only difference between the Hellcat and Supersnake is that the SS goes through Ford and Shelby.
Either way you are buying them straight from a dealer and with a warranty.

Well, I guess there is other differences, such as the Supersnake being all around better than the Hellcat.
