When Dodge Challenger Hellcat meets Tesla Model S Plaid, you get this Frankenstein-like vehicle by Kyle Wade of BoostedBoiz. Put simply, he purchased the wrecked high-performance electric sedan with the goal of swapping its powertrain into another vehicle, which just so happened to be this muscle car.
How does that work? Well, the Tesla Model S Plaid has a 116.5-inch wheelbase, which isn’t too far off the 116.2-inch Dodge Challenger. This meant that he only needed to spend $700 on the latter’s shell before starting the project. What he ended up with was a 4,330 pound muscle car powered by three electric motors generating 1,020 hp and 1,047 lb-ft of torque.

Still can’t believe how well it fits. For anyone watching this I started this past Monday and only put 24 hours into it. And here it is 3 days later. Huge props to Kyle and his foresight. He knew it was gonna work but I don’t think he knew it was gonna work this well! (Neither did I) It’s like Tesla and dodge shared notes on some parts,” said one commenter.
