Challenger Scat Pack - 174mph Top Speed Test Drive! BARGAIN MUSCLE CAR
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2020
- The new Dodge Challenger R/T 392 Scat Pack Widebody offers some serious American muscle bang for buck! With the unlimited German Autobahn ahead, let's put the pedal to the metal and found out what it's all about, including a top speed run to Vmax! This Challenger is from AEC Europe, the importers of Dodge and RAM vehicles, you can find your nearest dealer here: aeceurope.com/dealer
The Scat Pack sits in the middle of the 3 variants of the Challenger available in Europe from AEC; above the V6 GT and beneath the Hellcat as we don't get the Demon and Redeye specials. It's powered by the 6.4l HEMI V8 making 492ps (485bhp) and 644Nm with an 8spd auto gearbox, in this case in Frostbite blue with the Widebody package too. Where it truly stands out though, is that with AEC handling the full process to get it onto the road, the price point is well below that you might expect for a 500hp muscle car.
After a walkaround to run through the headline details, it's out onto the country roads to get a first feel for it, including the tendency to break out the rear end - it is a muscle car afterall! From there though, the Autobahn beckons and an opportunity to really put down the power and see what it's got, reaching up to effectively the Vmax top speed at 280km/h or 174mph, making an exceptional noise along the way.
AEC Europe are responsible for the dealer network that manages the entire process to import Dodge and RAM vehicles like the Challenger, Charger and RAM 1500. This includes everything from conformity with headlights and exhausts to documentation and paperwork to ultimately bring them onto the roads. You can find out exactly where your nearest dealer is via their search: aeceurope.com/dealer

I've owned a Hellcat, currently own a Scat Pack, and a Demon. The Scat is the best overall bang for the buck and has the most usable power for daily driving. Honestly more fun to drive than a Hellcat because you can push it harder more often. One of the best cars I've ever owned.
I’m debating on a wide-body challenger scat pack or a hellcat challenger….. I love both but still haven’t pulled the trigger yet … trying to get a last call edition
@@israelg6750just go with a lesser year models bro it's cheaper and has the same exact features and less names that will hick up the price
@@israelg6750 ima be honest man, ive owned a scat for about half a year now, dont get me wrong, i love the scat i have and im not going to get rid of it and probably save it for my kids but if u can afford a hellcat id go ahead and get one, you'll most likely be wanting more power after a little while of owning a scat
I always think it's interesting to see what europeans think of american cars.
“Suck, can’t compete”. That’s what I’m experiencing so far on social media, 50-90% of the time though. But they just never mention or say it out loud. It’s pretty much hidden messages, but once you get used to that, you’ll realize something. That they never compare their European cars to those USA or JDM cars.
They’ll just say “BMW M5 or E63 is faster than RS6”, or “GT2 RS will eat the shit out of a Huracan Performante on track”. But slowly you’ll realize, it’s pretty much a waste of time for them to compare to USA and JDM cars because they know that their EU cars will beat them. An RS6 will still beat some sports cars from USA and the Huracan Performante will still beat a GT-R Nismo. They just don’t need to explain it.
Why do you think that Shmee never really reviewed any USA/JDM cars aside from “Includes Paid Promotion” or an invitation to be at the passenger seat of a R34 Skyline from SavageGarage? I mean like look at him, he never even touched the Nissan GT-R R35 aside from the GT-R R50. Because it’s “Italdesign”, the smell of “EU” design. So yeah, there’s that.
“Well what about the Ford GT?” Forced. To make a history or his channel special. Where a guy bought a 2016 $500,000 Ford GT with a unique Paint Scheme to pay tribute to one of the Ford’s greatest history. Why do you think that he bought 3 Focus RS and a Shelby GT500? Look at the the current state of the both Focus RS now. Not even bothered to take them on a road trip. Even his modified Red RS is not even brought to the Nurburgring.
I won’t be surprised if his GT BS is going to have 3-5 times more miles than his upcoming GT500.
Edit: no wait nvm sorry. He did touch the Nissan GT-R 4 times. Sorry.
agreed
@@jojodivas9211 There really aren't any European cars that can compete with American cars as far as performance to cost ratio. You mention an RS6 LOL. That's a $120 THOUSAND DOLLAR CAR. Derp. You need to spend $100k just to get this kind of performance on a euro car, and you're still stuck with a car that is always in the shop. And your logic is flawed. He doesn't drive his BMW, his G wagon, his Aston, his 675, not one of them have been in more than 1-2 videos this year. Your logic is why Europeans are either driving complete derelicts or >$80k cars. There is no middle ground, in terms of performance cars, generally speaking. The cheapest, crappiest, bottom of the model line 1M or M2 is close to $60k-70k. For those chick cars. LOL riiight.
every time ive had someone from europe talk to me about cars, they love the american cars
We love them... But sadly import costs and stupid EU taxes 🙃
I love the sound of American muscle cars, especially this one.
Taylor Dugan yk EU regulations🤷🏾♂️
@@Iamkoool2 stupid voters=stupid regulations
Stock for stock Dodge hemis usually sound better then Chevy and Ford.Stock for stock
Charger is somehow louder
@@JohnSmith-nl2us no.. same engine
Seems like an overall fun car for a good price
Not in the Netherlands, example the new corvette over 200.000€ lol
Al Swearengen what?!?
@@toejamr1 Yes no joke lol
Not really its costs a lot more in eu because of the import costs and regulations
What is the price?
Long time since we last had American muscles on The channel.
It's been a long time since I could even go to America! Can't wait until the borders open up again
Wym? Robert Mitchel was on the channel not too long ago 🥵
I’ve heard this is an amazing car to drive as long as you haven’t yet driven a hellcat or red eye. Those ones ruin it and make this one feel slow lol.
@@Shmee150 Do you still have the GT500 on order?
@@mattbudesa3038 probably not since it's been so long. Unless maybe he ordered a Carbon Fiber Track Pack.
If you want just a powerful engine, good roar, and a great speed, nothing beats the American muscle for price.
Exactly!
This guy is awesome! Driving at 150 to 170 plus mph and still making a video! Bad Ass!!!!!!
Talk about serious bang for buck in an American muscle car, you don't get much better than the Challenger Scat Pack! With the Autobahn beckoning, let's see what it's got at full speed too... Find your nearest European dealer with AEC: ruclips.net/video/0NV9ImnZfXE/видео.html
Shmee150 first reply
All I can think about is how insane it must’ve sounded for those other drivers having that big ass V8 blast by at over 270kmh lol
sounds orgasmic.. I'll see myself out.
The wide body helps with the look! 🚙 💨
You bet it does
@freepieanchipsgarageyeah but it's more than just the wide tires. It's a full performance pack that comes with several parts
But drags the top speed down a bit...
@freepieanchipsgarage yeah I think it's suspension, brakes, wheels and a little bit of reinforcement on the chassis
I love that Dodge uses the ZF 8-speed!
Never in my life would I thought shmee would be Behind the wheel of a mopar 😭
why do you mean a mopar? it's a dodge.
@@PGlll same thing, you learned something today
@@PGlll Mopar is a tuning division of Dodge Chrysler Jeep and Ram
@@PGlll it’s okay now you know lol
@@PGlll it’s okay now you know lol
I always loved the aggressive look and stance of this car. That blue just looks beautiful and the wide-body kit just looks right on this car. It sounds GLORIOUS and you get so much performance tech for the money. The Scat Pack really is the performance and price sweet spot in the Challenger lineup. I also believe it is one of the few cars available today you can still get with a proper manual transmission. So sad cars like this are going away :( The big takeaway is if you like cars like this you need to find a way to get them now. This for sure will be a modern-day classic. Thanks again for the video!
Yep and is why I bought myself one a few years ago, but is one of the original 6.1 SRT8s and love it
Hey! That thing got a Hemi?
‘Yeah’
‘Swweeeett’.
Those who know, will know! 😉
Dukes of hazzard
Yeah I don't think our European cousins no about that one😂
Jim Wilson it’s a hemi v8
MERICA!
Rehan Abdul Karim look up ‘hey that thing got a hemi’ here on RUclips, then you’ll understand.
Been waiting so long to see some muscle car action. They’ve come a long way
Weird to see a challenger R/T outside the US. It's just so out of place.
Unusual thing to be powering down the Autobahn with
Shmee150 u should get the Challenger Demon
Aman Aman i totally said that 2 in another comment lol
It's like saying "rare to see a corolla out of japan"
@@iamahmedmunir No its not. It's more like saying it weird seeing a right hand drive skyline outside of Japan.
YES! Happy to see that Tim is a scat fan like myself
Depends on what type of SCAT you referring at
@Bob Kernow He has been gone a rather long time...
This review is insane for one reason, you drove like a bat flying out of hell. No reviewer would ever be able to do that here in the west, very nice!
Just got my SRT 392 Thursday i love the CAR
Congrats 🙏🏾
Your week content is amazing and you are making me smile during lockdown
I lived in Germany for three years, LOVED IT. I’d have loved having my current 2021 Scat Pack there with me! 🇩🇪 🇺🇸
Ive seen like 100 reviews on this car and this one has been the best one...like u actually drive the car, love the video
I love my 2019 Scat Pack💪🏽
How would you describe the acceleration both low end and top end
@@texasstreetkings537 slow boat
@@C7vette7 obviously you can't afford one.
@@texasstreetkings5373.8 0-60 11.6 1/4 tops end not the best but the 0-130 is insane gots a good top speed to
@@C7vette7I would smash that c7 in the 1/4 mile buddy
Ok wow this isnt something I think I needed to see Shmee reviewing Muscle cars but I love it 😂🙌
Not often you see them at the top speed as well ;)
@@Shmee150 hope u had fun
Nice video! I've had mine up to 170 mph here in the States, and it felt quite solid and stable.
European: It's ludicrously entertaining.
American: It's a shit load of fun.
I have the 2019 TA 392 version. I simply LOVE IT. Awesome video.
Finally a real car review! Fantastic engine and terrific value for money. In many EU countries more exclusive than the usual supercar brands. Good ergonomics too. Superb old school muscle car. Wide body kit makes it look so much better than the standard version!
It was really nice to see one of these on the autobahn! Thanks for the video!
Love you shmee for your simplicity and soberness 👍
The Challenger's back end twists when Shmee revs it. Massive power!!!
Big old HEMI!
Good review as always Shmee 👍🏼
Great driving! I own this same car in a different color .. I had upgraded from a manual 5.7 Shaker. Amazing Street Muscle...I love it, and the ZF 8 Speed is sweet..
Nice video.Love these so much I had new one imported into the UK. 50th anniversary wide body scat pack.Absolutely chuffed with the looks and performance.American muscle for sure.
These cars are an absolute blast. Good video.
My fav car🤩 Finally Tim, finally 🤝👌
I think there's plenty to like about this car. Styling is clean, and I love that color.
I drove this car here in LA California and I love it the power is there.
Basically a 2008 design that still looks great today.
Nice to see a true review of this car .
You did a great job with your test drive. I'm a Challenger's man. I got my first Challenger in 1970 R/T, and to this day, I still own a Challenger R/T. My son lives in Germany and I hope one day, he gets to keep and drive this Challenger. However, I understand that there is a hassle to export it from USA to Germany. Anyways, thanks for your video.
Its amazing to see shmee review American cars and muscle cars as well
Im a Chrysler technician in America and I can tell you, the scat is NOT the end of the challenger 😂. The scat to us, while cool and still powerful, is a normal car to us techs. The charger and challenger both still have a lot of life, dodge plans to continue the huge NA engines
Lol you definitely not a Chrysler technician
Mills Rog why u say that
Depends on who will win the election. No way the US can continue with huge Hemi's
They really should manufacture the 6.4's with an aluminum engine block to differentiate it from the 5.7 and reward the scat pack customer. FCA do a good job extracting output out of this ohv dinosaur but they would really endear themselves to real car guys by making aluminum block 392's..
Mills Rog lol, you definitely don’t know shit about anything if you think the charger and challenger are at the end of their life, it’s just getting started. Sure the US gov and the EPA are starting to restrict them more and more on what they can and can’t do but they won’t stop. Why do you think they continually make a more powerful trim of each car every single year? Because it’s not the end, they’re just getting started with this shit.
I never expected him to do a review of such a car 🤣
I'm in the US and we own Audi's and Mercedes cars but there's something about cars like this that brings a smile to my face.
Really can wait to see in your AMG GTR Roadster 😊
Tell me about it, long overdue sorting that out at my end
Man, that is such a good looking car! I like the Widebody Challenger so much more than the Camaro and Mustang.
I bought a 2019 R/T widebody scatpack and with about 14g’s of upgrades and it’s awesome!!
Fun to see my old car on the channel. My fav sounding American muscle💯
I bought a Scat Pack Challenger in 2015, and I couldn't be happier with the purchase.
Thanks for all the querks and features! 😅
Well it's about time you drove a Challenger!
Fantastic video
I just bought a New 2021 Scat Pack :)
Drive the Demon. The sound the supercharger makes is insane and almost double the HP!
Kevin from Dallas, Texas I really like this video,
Nice review 👍 Keep safe man !
So hyped for this video coming from an American viewer
Shmee, the only human on earth to drive this car sensibly! :)
Definitely on my dream car list 😃
Sounds like you enjoy it! Cool video.
Yes, so much Yes. Loved seeing American muscle on the autobahn while on my vacation there a couple years back
That is a beautiful color, and it works well with the lines.
That sliding is sooo awesome!
I have a 2018 Scat Pack Shaker . Love it !!
Ok next time u drive a challenger let it be the red-eye please that would be epic
I think the best Europeans can get is the Scat Pack. Check the video description.
Dark Project Do you know someone called llf on RUclips?
@@streetboyz1096 living life fast?
Dark Project He is from UK and he has a hellcat
Beautiful color!
Great motor would love to drive one some day
I see them everyday but it’s cool seeing one in Europe
Alot of Power and good grumble 💯
Makes me excited for your Shelby!
I like these, they’re like a guilty pleasure... Dumb but fun, cheap and cheerful with no ego compared to very ‘serious’ European cars.
This is a fun and unexpected review
Hey! He forgot to mention the hollowed headlights that let air into the engine bay while still keeping the circular light outside the intake usable. :)
Like the racing bee logo 👍🏻😉
I’ve been waiting for Shmee to do a dodge product again especially with what they’re releasing!
Damn good video you were cooking on that highway you were passing those cars like they were sitting still.
Really wonderful car! want one!!!!!!!!
That was a nice review, I'd like to see you do one on the hellcat and the Red eye,,,
Shmee150 Absolutely Incredible Review I'm glad to Review that Gorgeous 2020 Challenger Scatpack and take it for a VMax run and I think you should definitely come to America when you can to Review an American Hellcat since European Hellcats have a restrictive exhaust
Trust me these cars are a lot of bang for the buck ! Big Shmee fan ! 1320 Salute !
Whatta beast! Hey, I’d love to see some more content with your M8! Do you having anything in the works with it?
i have a 2012 dodge charger SRT, which is similar (only difference really is the transmission and the diff ratio) and man its so much fun!
Crazy speed, i was on edge when he got over 210 km/h
Thanks,seemed like some,value here... and good driving.. Interestingly, lot of open Spaces, and nice roads here in Montana.......
I love driving this car. It’s a lot more fun with a manual. But it’s heavy and torquey and you feel the weight while hearing that throaty exhaust grumble. Ahhh 😌 i love my American muscle
Just listen to the american and canadian youtubers wining in envy. All reviewed the ScatPack, none drove it to 279 kpm (not even close). Nice, Tim!
To get the best pulls, I never use the upshift paddle. Use the downshift paddle to get revs at 5g, floor it, and the ZF transmission will upshift it better than any human can.
I still like the hellcat I wanted the 392 but that supercharger and hemi combo is hard to resist
Love the slightly different coloured bumpers - is that so they stand out?
Awesome car, fantastic colour..........might be a bit of a parking nightmare around where I live!
Saw this on Instagram I guess I’ll now watch this and then sleep 💤
Hehe thanks, sleep well in 20 mins or so :)
Thanks for the in depth review, even better than the American's.
Thanks for delivering the kind of content we don't generally get to enjoy here in the States. For that kind of performance run, we'd have to drive down to Mexico (Lol).
Love seeing Mopar on the channel Shmee. Mopar or no car and frostbite is just amazing you should do the Charger to Shmee.
It's cool to see someone like shmee Enjoying a 6.4..he would probly have a great time with a red-eye 😎😁..dude can drive to takes balls to do what he does here and on the ring
I love how Shmee reply’s to early comments. Love your channel, have a great day.
I'm always trying! Thanks for the support
I’m only 19, but I have such a passion for cars, and I’m going to college to be a Radiologist so hopefully I’ll one day have myself a car collection. I love McLaren’s in particular the 570s, but I worry about reliability, through your knowledge could you give some advice to ease my mind?
Fulfilled my dream and bought a challenger scatpack widebody with the 6 speed manual in beautiful torred. Comes in 2 weeks. Had to pull the trigger, before it is too late. One more challenger on the autobahn🙂
Gday SHMEE...
Yehhhh bro, love your nod to the ol'School Muscle Car era!
Dodge Challenger R/T series.
NiCE ONE..👍🙂👍
LoL for us working-class types these are Hi Performance "dream cars" we can afford.
Hey Shmee don't you have a latest model Ford Shelby GT500 in your Car Collection ?? How about making a test drive video of it? THAT would be superCOOL for us workin stiffs who watch & follow your YT channel
As always LOVE YA WORK bro..
Much appreciate the work you put into making these videos.
God bless m8, hava gday 🙂

It’s seems quieter in European spec! I know he said they are able to keep it stock, but I guess all the ones I’m around have resonator deletes. Love seeing American car reviews on European channels though. Keep them coming my man.
I've been looking at one of these for over a year now. I'm still on the fence between saving a bit more for the hellcat, or possibly going with another push rod V8 (Camaro SS, Calaway SC630, ZL1). Whatever I end up with has to have a manual, but there are many choices!
