I have had it confirmed. it will not be built in RHD, custom conversions it'll need to be.

Put that engine in the 300c (the challenger and Charger use the 300c platform) ship it here and sell it for 85k - 90k... so then at least we can have a RHD Hellcat.

The 300c is due for a update in the next 6-12months... so please do it, otherwise we will have to wait to the next gen Dodges to become RHD from factory... or pay 180k from a importer to import and convert to RHD. which is too much for this car..

And it will be around the $180k mark for a converted RHD here. :(

On a positive note, the Hellcat has been as much as confirmed for the next model SRT8 Grand Cherokee. 700hp in a AWD tank, is going to be fun! Be interesting to see what times it pulls to 100, when the current model pulls mid 4's or better stock!

As a current MY14 owner, i'm really looking forward to this motor in the next SRT Jeep.

Ralph G. unofficially confirmed it in a recent article. I'll shoot through the link. Was also on Jeepgarage.org.

Just spoke to an importer / conversion specialist today and he has three Hellcats coming to OZ. A source within Chrysler USA told him the real HP figure is 850HP but all press release - advertising will state 725HP.

i have enquired through my local importer - Shogun Imports who are one of the largest Ram & F250/350 importers in Aus.

They quoted me, fully complied RHD converted for around $130k
give or take.
