Every year, a new selection of performance cars enters the market, looking to write their names into the history books. While most are revamped versions of already great cars, we’re occasionally treated to an all-new model entirely. But despite the influx of competition, the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat has continued to be one of America’s most exciting performance car choices for several years now.

It packs a 717 hp 6.2-liter supercharged V8, and sprints to 60 mph in as fast as 3.7 seconds. That sounds extremely impressive for a car that weighs more than 4,000 lbs, but the rest of the performance car market has indeed caught up, and quicker choices are aplenty. But before you roll your eyes, no — we are not comparing the Hellcat to those exotic cars that will bust any budget. Rather, we're pitting it against some new and widely available consumer sports cars, sports sedans, and even performance SUVs that can shame the flashier hypercars of the world. Here are 17 of the quickest performance cars on the market in 2024 that Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat buyers should never get into a race with.

UPDATE: 2024/02/02 22:17 EST BY RON FP

The list has been updated with two fresh models and the latest performance specifications according to manufacturer-sourced data and Zero To 60 Times.

How we chose the models: We selected those that can reach 60 mph from a standstill in less than 3.6 seconds, which is Dodge's claimed 0-60 time for the 2023 Challenger SRT Hellcat. For additional reference, the models' engine or motor specifications are also included.

Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing

The CT5 Is The Only V8-Powered Manual-Transmission Sports Sedan In Production

The CT5 does a great job of representing Cadillac in the midsize luxury sedan market. It looks great, has an upscale interior, and is quite affordable compared to its European rivals. However, the CT5 can be uninspiring to drive, with some versions offering as low as 237 hp. This is why Cadillac built the crazy CT5-V Blackwing.

Cadillac wanted the CT5-V Blackwing to be among the fastest four-door sedans in the world, which is why they equipped it with a 6.2-liter supercharged V8 with 668 hp on tap. This move turned out to be a success, as the 2023 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing can hit 60 mph a few seconds quicker than the Hellcat and will go on to reach a top speed of over 200 mph.

The 2023 Vantage V8 Has A Top Speed Of 195 MPH

The Vantage has quietly crept up on the other members of this list. Despite the fact that we loved the 2007 Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster, it was hopelessly outgunned by its in-class rivals. That’s no longer the case thanks to its 4.0-liter V8 block, which helps the 2023 Aston Martin Vantage crack 60 mph in 3.4 seconds, before running out of puff at 195 mph.

The Vantage has always been a pretty car, but it finally has the performance to match that gorgeous face. You can even opt for the V12 Vantage Roadster, a stylish thrilling roofless monster, or even the Vantage F1 Edition, which has its focus on the track. Plenty of options to choose from, then, but one general rule applies to each – they’re all quicker than the Hellcat.

The 2023 model is the last Jaguar F-Type, and we will miss it immensely when it’s gone. The career the F-Type has had since its inception, and the fact that early models like the Jaguar F-Type V8 S Convertible are now edging towards the $40,000 bracket, makes them even more tempting.

But for those interested in a new model, the last hurrah taps 575 hp out of its supercharged V8 and sprints to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds. Beyond just being quick, it’s sensationally engaging to get to grips with. The crackle, pops, and occasional spits of flame also makes the F-Type R the ultimate toy to bring out the inner eight-year-old in you.

It’s simply not possible to go faster for cheaper, that’s why it’s worth waiting for the 2026 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500, given that the line-up is due for a refresh next year. But while the current GT500 ceased production a few months ago, it’s still possible to find new examples lying around.

With its supercharged V8 summoning 760 hp and willfully shouting its way towards a redline of 7,300 rpm, the GT500 will reach 60 mph nearly half a second quicker than the Hellcat. It’s much more agile on the road, and it handles that power exceptionally through its seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

The Mercedes-Benz E-Class is undoubtedly one of the best luxury cars out there. However, it isn't quite as fast as many gearheads would want, which is why the AMG division built a high-performance version – the Mercedes-AMG E63 S.

The 2023 Mercedes-AMG E63 S has all the luxury features found in the regular E-Class but replaces its lackluster power plants with a masterpiece of an engine – a handcrafted AMG 4.0-liter biturbo V8 cranking out 604 hp. In time, this 2023 iteration may become one of the best Mercedes-Benz E-Class models to buy used.

About 5 years later, Bentley introduced the Continental GT and changed its fortunes forever. By looking at our comprehensive guide to the Continental GT, one can see why the car is loved by many for its imposing design, spacious and comfortable interior full of luxury features, and powerful 12-cylinder engine.

The Continental GT has stuck around since with minimal changes to its design and mechanics and is now in its third generation. To beat the Hellcat, you'll need the 2023 Continental GT with the twin-turbo W12, as it offers up to 626 hp to work with.

Kia EV6 GT

The EV6 GT Boasts An Impressive 577 HP

Kia has had a fantastic run over the last few decades, going from being virtually unknown to being one of the most popular car brands in the country. One of Kia's biggest strengths is that it seems to have a model for the most popular segments, and with the new EV6 GT, the Korean marque is looking to dominate the fast-growing electric SUV segment.

The EV6 GT is the top-ranging model in the EV6 range and offers a cool design, a practical interior, and up to 577 hp coming from a dual-motor system. With a 0-60 mph time of just 3.2 seconds and a 161-mph top speed, the EV6 GT is among the best performance SUVs on the market.

The R8 Has The Same V10 Engine As the Lamborghini Huracan

It’s hard to understand how Audi can continue to improve the R8. Perhaps that’s why it’s finally called it curtains with the R8 GT, which marks the end of an audacious sports car era. Sticking with the more common V10 Performance, its 5.2-liter engine is paired with a seven-speed automatic dual-clutch transmission to get you to 60 mph in three seconds flat.

In its final years, the peak output has climbed just north of 600 hp, so it really can kick it with the latest and greatest that the rest of the world has to offer. In a sprint against the Hellcat, the R8 will not just annihilate it, but it’ll do so to the tune of that delightful V10. Its engine is also one of the main reasons why we’d choose the 2023 Audi R8 over the 2023 Porsche 911.

Is there a better-looking convertible in the world right now than the 2023 Mercedes-AMG SL63? Better still, it comes equipped with the thunderous twin-turbo four-liter V8 that unleashes 577 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque – making it one of the most powerful German sports cars you can buy in 2023. Despite packing over 200 hp less than the Hellcat, the SL63 will still outrun it to 60 mph by 0.7 seconds; that will be noticeable in a sprint.

Utilizing the AMG Speedshift MCT 9G automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive layout, the SL63 can hit the quarter-mile in 11.3 seconds at 124 mph and will continue accelerating to just beyond 200 mph. The car's remarkable pace is complemented by a four-wheel steering system that enhances drivability by ensuring stress-free handhold and direct, precise steering. So, regardless of speed, you’ll feel in control. There’s even a special-edition AMG SL 63 that makes you feel like Lewis Hamilton.

Nissan GT-R

The 2023 GT-R Can Sprint From 0 to 60 MPH In Less Than 3 Seconds

What a legacy the Nissan GT-R has created for itself. Its performance has continued to spiral on an upward ascent for over 15 years now, so it makes sense why Nissan has followed the common motto of ‘if it’s not broken, don’t fix it’. You’ve got 565 hp from the twin-turbo 3.8-liter V6, which means 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds. But in typical JDM fashion, there are plenty of modifications to make your Nissan GT-R even faster.

In every comparable metric, the GT-R wipes the floor with the Hellcat. It’s faster, it’s more efficient, and the genuine ease at which it can be used as a daily makes you wonder: why would you ever need anything else? There is, of course, the 600-hp Nismo alternative that cuts the 60 mph sprint down to just 2.5 seconds. But we aren’t sure if the Nissan GT-R Nismo is worth the hefty price tag, no matter how good it is.

The Cayman GT4 RS Is Almost As Fast As A 911 GT3

For years, enthusiasts have been begging Porsche to fit the Cayman with the naturally aspirated four-liter flat-six from the GT3 RS. It finally made dreams come true with the 718 Cayman GT4 RS, which produces 493 hp and 331 lb-ft of torque and sends that power to the rear wheels via a seven-speed automatic PDK gearbox. The result? Only the ultimate mid-engine sports car in the world.

Its lightweight frame and aero kit combine to make this small but feisty Porsche close to a second quicker to 60 mph than the Hellcat. Despite being down on power, a drag race even shows how insanely close a 911 GT3 and Cayman GT4 RS are in a straight line. So, maybe Porsche missed a trick by waiting so long to give the Cayman the engine it was always meant to have.

That power goes to all four wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission and allows the M5 Competition to hurl you from 0-60 mph in just 2.8 seconds.

It also boasts a super responsive steering rack, meaning razor-sharp handling. Combine this with its mighty powertrain and effortlessly comfortable, tech-filled interior, and you see just why we’d rather buy the BMW M5 Competition than a supercar. Despite prices for the M5 starting from over $108,000 at present, we think it’s worth every penny.

Paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch, and a fantastic all-wheel drive system, Porsche's 640-horsepower 3.7-liter six-cylinder block feels like a cheat code that should be illegal for the road in many ways. Why? Because while the Hellcat is still meandering off the line in a cloud of smoke, the 911 is already within sight of 100 mph. Those with even less regard for their safety can opt for the Brabus 820, a Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet on steroids.
