Autoevolution.com is reporting the following news: Dodge will be offering a "jailbreak" appearance package, for $995, on the Challenger and Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody. The package will hit the market by the end of 2021. Jailbreak is almost entirely an appearance affair, as it is meant to unlock color combination ordering restrictions. For both cars, the process of choosing the proper hues gets a lot more complicated, with customers now having the choice between countless colors for up to 20 parts that go on the car, including seats, wheels, brake calipers, exterior badging, steering wheels, seat belts, and floor mats. Because it knows this approach could cause some headaches for customers, Dodge will try to help a bit by offering pre-configured Jailbreak models with funky names: Old School, Brass Funky, Red Dawn, The Classic, or Yin Yang. Regardless of the path chosen, customers will get Jailbreaks with a special badge on the instrument panel. The Jailbreak model for the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody lets option combinations run wild including seven options for seats, stripes and wheels; six brake caliper color options; five exterior badging finishes; four choices each of steering wheels; seat belt colors and floor mats; and much more. In addition to unlocking previously restricted color combinations, Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody Jailbreak also unleashes new Jailbreak-exclusive content options, including: Hammerhead Grey Laguna leather seats Hammerhead Grey floor mat accents Hammerhead Grey, sepia and Demonic Red seat belts Leather steering wheel and Alcantara steering wheel options, with white SRT logo Copper Weaver carbon fiber bezel finish Decklid stripe and Widebody side stripe Brass Monkey, Satin Chrome and red exterior badging finish Chrome fuel door finish Blue and yellow brake calipers 20-by-11-inch Warp Speed Satin Carbon and lightweight Low Gloss Granite wheels For the Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody Jailbreak model, option and feature combinations are also plentiful. Personalization paths run through seven wheel options, six exterior stripe and brake caliper color offerings, five varieties of seats and exterior badging finishes, and four options of steering wheels, seat belt colors and floor mats. Exclusive Jailbreak content options for the Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody Jailbreak include: Hammerhead Grey Laguna leather seats Hammerhead Grey floor mat accents Hammerhead Grey, Sepia and Demonic Red seat belts Leather steering wheel and Alcantara steering wheel options, with white SRT logo Hood, roof and decklid vinyl stripes Brass Monkey, Satin Chrome and red exterior badging finish Black Nickel exhaust tip finish Blue and yellow brake calipers 20-by-11-inch Warp Speed Satin Carbon and lightweight Low Gloss Granite wheels “We're taking most of the parts and pieces we've used over the years, adding a few new ones and letting customers build their own One of One,“ said in a statement Tim Kuniskis, Dodge CEO. “So, if you're dreaming about owning a Stinger Yellow Challenger with Brass Monkey wheels, Hammerhead Grey seats, blue Brembos and red badges, I'm not sure we should, but we'll build it for you.” The most important change the new offering brings, if you ask us, is the small bump in power offered for the Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody, whose engine output in this configuration is rated at 807 hp. The 2022 Dodge Charger and Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody Jailbreak option package will be available for customer orders through dealerships in late Q4 2021 at a U.S. manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of $995. Dodge Power Brokers dealers will be able to order and display Jailbreak models in their showrooms. The new Dodge Power Brokers program, recently announced in tandem with the new Direct Connection performance parts line, will build a network of dealerships equipped with staff trained to deliver a performance-focused customer service experience.
CHOICE is GOOD!! We should see some really different color combos out there in the near future. Thanks for the read.
"In 1910, Lee Oldfield was driving a green car in a race at the New York State Fair in Syracuse. His car went off the track and killed several bystanders. Ten years later, in 1920, Gaston Chevrolet (brother of Louis Chevrolet, the car company founder) was killed in a crash during an automobile race in Beverly Hills, California. As the story goes, the car he was driving happened to be green. Thus, according to legend and superstition, this pair of events means that green race cars are indeed unlucky. However, some racers and racing fans believe the superstition goes back even before the 1910 and 1920 incidents (even though no one seems willing to offer up a plausible alternative theory)." https://auto.howstuffworks.com/auto-racing/nascar/history/green-cars-unlucky-in-nascar.htm
