American Racing Headers did exactly that, swapping the Hellcat's 707-horsepower V8 into a second-generation Prius. The result is a former hybrid that nearly pops wheelies as it rips down the drag strip, making a noise no Prius has probably ever made before.

In case you're wondering, it's quick -- quick as hell, in fact. ARH's Prius managed a 9.38-second quarter-mile sprint, which is quicker even than the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, a car engineered from the factory to dominate drag.
