The SRT division of Stellantis, formally Chrysler made a statement saying that their SRT group had been disbanded. The team was responsible for all of the crazy SRT vehicles. This included the SRT Viper, SRT Dodge Challenger Hellcat, and more.
The company stated that the team members, while they didn’t lose their jobs, were integrated into different positions in the organization. The formal statement said,
In February 2021, all of the core elements of the SRT performance engineering team were integrated into Stellantis’ global engineering organization.
This action will have the two-way benefit of ensuring that our brands’ SRT and performance-focused product offerings continue to meet the highest quality standards and expectations, while delivering key learnings from motorsports and other high-performance-technology applications across a wider mix of our company’s product lines.
These products have delighted enthusiasts for nearly two decades, and Stellantis will continue to sell and develop the next generation of Dodge//SRT-branded vehicles, as well as Jeep and Ram vehicles that utilize high-performance SRT technology.
