Ford Is Testing a Dodge Charger Hellcat, and the People Demand Answers
Why could Ford be tinkering with a rival's V8 sedan?

Ford Authority also speculates that the vehicle may be part of the development process for a proposed Mustang-branded sedan, as the publication has previously reported. Details of this proposed pony-branded four-door are extremely thin, however. The actual status of that project—or if it even exists—is almost completely unknown to the public. Ford reportedly showed a concept to dealers back in 2018, but since then there's been almost no new information concerning the vehicle.
Unless Ford decides to start teasing details or somebody at the right place at the right time snaps a photo—a la Ford Maverick—we'll be in the dark for what this Charger Hellcat is really being used for. Enthusiasts groaned when Ford decided to call the Mach-E a Mustang, but in that context, a Mustang sedan might just be welcomed with open arms. It's rumored Chevy might continue the Camaro as an electric sedan as well, so anything is really possible here.
Maybe the Big 3 will return to high-performance sedans. We can only hope.
