Overview
SRT (Street Racing Technology) is an American badge of high-performance vehicles manufactured by Stellantis North America, mainly ones of the Dodge brand.
Origins of the badge date back to 1989 when a team known as "Team Viper" was organized to develop the Dodge Viper. It later merged with Team Prowler, the developers of the Plymouth Prowler, to become Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE). This was renamed Performance Vehicle Operations (PVO) from January 2002 until around 2004. Since all PVO vehicles used the SRT badge, the development team itself was renamed to SRT in 2004. SRT is used by vehicles of Dodge, Chrysler, and Jeep brands, including police models for Chrysler/FCA Fleet Division.
Cars
The naming convention used by SRT for its models is indicative of the vehicle's engine type. The number that follows the "SRT" prefix denotes the number of engine cylinders. For example, Chrysler 300C models with 6.1 L Hemi V8s when in the SRT version are named as the Chrysler 300C SRT-8. Similarly, the Dodge Viper SRT-10 along with the Dodge Ram SRT-10 had an 8.3 L V10.
