damn that sucks, you think 23s will have them?
No, Dodge's current rear camera is a 2016 unit and they haven't updated it since. They're very, very likely not going to update it for 2023 either.

This is one thing that I love about my C8 compared to the Hellcat it replaced. I have 2 rear cameras, both are hi-def cameras with excellent night vision. I have 3 front cameras, again, all hi-def with excellent night vision. The front primary camera can double as an always on dash cam. The Hellcat's rear camera is a low resolution potato.

And my C8 was almost 20 grand cheaper than the Jailbreak I had on order. Go figure.

My Hyundai Santa Cruz has a much better 360 camera and it only cost $38K. It's damn near perfect when parking. The in-cluster turn cameras make side view mirrors obsolete.

I didn't buy my Chally because of the cameras.

My rear camera isn’t bad. I’ve seen worse in other vehicles
What vehicles lol. Ive never seen a worse camera in any vehicle ever. These things are horrendous. Does it get the job done? Yeah but it’s like wearing sunglasses indoors.

My salesman said the ball shaped device on the front end of the Challenger Hellcat is a camera. LOL.

It’s for the front end collision warning.

Edit: I know it works. Lol. When I was using my iPhone
That ball is for the adaptive cruise module.

Does the hellcat have an overview camera?

Some newer cars have two cameras a revered camera on the rear bumper and some have a satellite overview I’ll link a picture below.
This is my least favorite part of Dodge, they havent touched the camera in a while. Let's hope they decide to! Would be nice addition, would make it that much better!

Yeah, you're discovering what I was talking about a year or two ago with the scam Dodge was pulling on the Redeye tech package. The forward collision and adaptive cruise are unavilable with the Redeye due to the chiller plumbing taking up that space. For 2019 and 2020, if you optioned the tech package on a Redeye, they charged you the same price as for the Hellcat. While the standard Hellcat got the wipers, auto hi beams, forward collision and adaptive cruiser, the Redeye only got the wipers and hi beams. I believe that has been remedied for the 2022 model year and maybe for the 2021 (not sure), but for sure on 19s and '20s, if you ticked that box you got taken for $800.
