With its over-the-top muscle car swagger and "House of Power" ads promoting [SRT vehicles](), we've become accustomed to watching Chargers and Challengers shred their tires with ease. The automaker's latest promo takes a slightly different direction, though, as it partners with *Fast and Furious 9* to show a glimpse—just a flash—of what appears to be a [Dodge Durango’s]() front quarter panel with the now-classic Hellcat emblem. If it’s what we’re thinking, the Durango line will gain an even more potent variant over the already-quick SRT model. https://youtube.com/embed/UsWhSpwNm2U Though [Dodge]() doesn’t currently make a Durango Hellcat, [Trackhawk](), or anything of the sort, it's reasonable to expect the brand’s family SUV is next in line for supercharged treatment. After all, Dodge's sister company, Jeep, gave its Grand Cherokee a 6.2-liter Hellcat engine a few years ago. The result is a kiddo-hauling Trackhawk truck that can hit 60 mph from a standstill in under four seconds. The most powerful Durango at present is the SRT model, which gets 475 horsepower from its 6.4-liter Hemi V8. Dodge’s “standard” Hellcat vehicles get 707 horsepower, so a Durango Hellcat would be a big jump for the SUV. We've been publicly expecting this for years, and we're a little surprised it took so long. Customers have been [dropping Hellcat engines in their Durangos]() for some time now, albeit with different specifications. Regardless, here's to hoping this is more than a tease and we'll actually see another 707-hp SUV hit dealer lots sometime soon—there could never be too many, after all. *Got a tip?
