Here is a thought. Put the Hemi in only the 2 door/coupe Charger R/T and Scat Pack and only in the 4 door Pursuit Police package. Lower the price on the smaller Hurricane I6 for the four door versions and “base” coupes, as an entry level and fleet level.

Slower Scat pack??? MEH.

Put the Demon and Hellcat in SRT models and call it a day.

I bet they’ve already got a couple Hemis running around. You know it fits, it was designed to.
