Another One Bites The Dust! Durango SRT Hellcats Are Become More Rare By The Moment:

The new supercharged 2021 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat was one of the highest-anticipated vehicles for the Dodge brand in recent years. The Durango SRT Hellcat is limited to a 1-year production run (due to government regulations on the vehicle’s current architecture), instantly making the performance SUV a future collectible.

The 2021 Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat, currently holds the title as the most powerful SUV ever delivering 710 horsepower and 645 lb.-ft. of torque from the proven supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® Hellcat V8 engine.

With an original production run of just 2,000 units, Dodge//SRT expanded the production due to demand adding an additional 1,000 units to the mix. With numbers making it rarer than the drag racing-oriented 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, the Durango is drawing huge upcharges.

Those upcharges continue to grow as a number of the Durango SRT Hellcat continue to be destroyed at an alarming rate. In May, we saw two of the limited edition models stolen from a Stellantis holding lot in Toledo, Ohio leaving one damaged after hitting a fire hydrant. Several of the 710 horsepower SUVs have also shown up on the popular online auction site, Copart. 

The latest victim has one 2,583 miles on the odometer. While it looks like the Hellcat powertrain remains mostly untouched, there is a lot of damage to the driver’s side and front of the vehicle. Currently located in Philadephia, we pulled the window sticker to see what actual options are on the vehicle…
