If you thought the EV2 personal tank was badass, get a load of this amped up version, which packs a 727ci Hemi that makes an insane 1500 hp. It tears over any surface thanks to 112 inch-long tracks, and boasts 16″ of suspension travel. It’s so powerful that it can pop wheelies.

The 2012 Dodge Charger SRT8 is all about the engine – a new 6.4 L HEMI V8 with 465 hp and 465 lb/ft of torque; other delights include a new front fascia, 4″ dual exhaust and Harmon Kardon stereo.
