Powering the 2012 Charger Super Bee and the 2012 Challenger Yellow Jacket is the automaker's largest, most potent Hemi V8, a new 6.4-liter unit rated at 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. Mated to a standard five-speed automatic transmission in the Charger and a choice of five-speed automatic or six-speed manual in the Challenger, the engine enables 0-60 acceleration in less than 5.0 seconds. Top speed is 175 mph with the automatic (182 mph in the manual-equipped Challenger).

The two cars share a number of features, notably new 20-inch five-spoke cast-aluminum wheels with black painted pockets, Brembo brakes with painted calipers and an SRT three-spoke performance steering wheel with paddle shifters.

The cockpits in both cars are described by Chrysler as "race-inspired," with sport seats, accent stitching and custom graphics.

 

The Charger Super Bee is offered with a choice of Stinger Yellow or Pitch Black paint with graphics.
