Performance and Engine Details
The SRT 392 sits below the Hellcat in the Charger range, but its 6.4-litre naturally aspirated V8 still delivers a substantial 485hp (357kW) and 644Nm of torque. This output enables a 0-100km/h (62mph) time of around 4.5 seconds, which places it among the quicker saloons in its segment. While it lacks the supercharged power of the Hellcat, the SRT 392 remains a compelling choice for those seeking strong straight-line performance in a rear-wheel-drive American saloon. The engine’s responsiveness and power delivery make it suitable for both daily driving and spirited runs.

Position in the Charger Line-Up
The SRT 392 is positioned as a high-performance variant below the flagship Hellcat. While the Hellcat has drawn attention for its supercharged engine and extreme power, the SRT 392 offers a more accessible package with impressive acceleration and handling. It provides a balance between everyday usability and track-capable performance. For buyers not seeking the top-tier Hellcat, the SRT 392 represents a strong alternative, delivering much of the Charger’s signature attitude and speed without the added cost or complexity of the most powerful models.
Features and Practicality
Although the SRT 392 does not come with the luxury features found in some premium German saloons, it focuses on delivering solid performance and a bold appearance. The interior and equipment are designed for enthusiasts who prioritise driving experience over high-end amenities. This makes the SRT 392 a practical choice for those who want a fast, visually striking car without entering the premium price bracket.
