The Jailbreak option package is for SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody models, and the upgrade includes a 10-hp power increase.

The Dodge Challenger has been available for more than ten years, yet it continues to be one of FCA's most popular models.

The vehicle has long been a reliable and capable alternative in the world of American muscle cars. Its affordable starting price is one of the key factors contributing to its popularity. However, Dodge does provide a wide range of choices.

With its new "Never Lift" marketing initiative, Dodge hopes to better serve its consumers by giving them more opportunities to customize their cars.

The 2022 Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody models from Dodge will support the new Jailbreak concept. This will enable buyers to choose previously unattainable color schemes for the whole vehicle.

The Jailbreak model's main selling point is its range of available colors, while the Charger and Challenger also get a ton of exclusive extras with the upgrade.

So what makes the 2022 Dodge Challenger Hellcat Jailbreak so special?

The Jailbreak versions' supercharged 6.2-liter V-8 gains 10 horsepower through a powertrain tuning, producing an absurdly high output of 807 horsepower. For every syllable in its lengthy model name, that translates to more than 115 horsepower.

Notably, its power does not only equal that of the Challenger Super Stock, but it is also only one pony short of the limited-edition 808-hp Demon that is no longer available.

Driving a Challenger is always fun. Power is easily accessible with the 6.2-liter V8 in any gear at practically any speed.

It is adequately fast, although a few tenths slower than comparable contemporary muscle cars. Strong braking is standard. For such a large vehicle, the Challenger can stop from 60 mph at 105 feet, which is a modest distance.

The Challenger's large size makes navigating small spaces a little challenging, but it excels on vast roads. The Challenger handles curves on roadways rather nicely as well. So long as you don't try maneuvering it like a quick sports vehicle. One will instantly notice its heft and weight if you attempt to drive swiftly around tight curves.

The Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody's Jailbreak model offers a plethora of option combinations across more than 20 categories.

This includes seven options for seats, stripes, and wheels. It also encompasses six choices for brake calipers, five finishes for exterior badging, four options for steering wheels, seat belt colors, floor mats, and much more.

The Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody Jailbreak not only makes it possible to use previously forbidden color combinations but also makes it possible to access additional Jailbreak-only content options.

Hammerhead Gray Laguna leather seats, floor mat accents, and Sepia and Demonic Red seat belts are what cover the interior. On top of that, the interior also adds leather steering wheel and Alcantara steering wheel options, with a white SRT logo.

Options aren't limited to the inside. Copper Weaver carbon fiber bezel finish encases the vehicle. To add more finesse to its well-crafted exterior, it can be decorated with decklid stripes and Widebody side stripes.

For the badge finish, there are three options: brass monkey, satin chrome, and red.

Additional features include a chrome finish for the fuel door, blue and yellow brake calipers, and 20-by-11-inch Warp Speed Satin Carbon and Lightweight Low Gloss Granite wheels.
