In the media
BBC television's Top Gear ran a short segment on the Hellcat in their Season 9 Episode 4 show. Presenter James May commented that he doubted if the car's drag coefficient would be low enough ("slippery enough") to reach the claimed top speed. In addition, the prototype's weight is prohibitive of it reaching the claimed top speed.
The prototype was also digitised and featured as the centre-piece of the racing video game Juiced 2.
