The Dodge//SRT brand is known as the American performance brand thanks to its value-based high-performance V8 muscle cars and SUVs. Vehicles like the 797 horsepower Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody, 717 horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and the 470 horsepower Dodge Durango SRT392, have become staples to draw people to the brand. But with the age of electrification upon us, the HEMI V8 muscle car and SUV era might be coming to an end.

I was there when the unlimited hydroplanes transitioned from thunder boats to woosh boats. Yes the turbine boats were much faster and more reliable. But when the roaring monsters gave way to the quiet turbines the crowds dropped way off ! The thrills of the hairs on the back of your necks standing up and the shaking of Miami Marine Stadium went away and so did the crowds. Memo: faster isn't always the answer ?

Steve David was working on bringing the V-12 back to H1 Unlimited a few years ago.
