The Fast & Furious series is one of the biggest movie franchises in the world. It is among the Top Seven movie franchises ever made alongside big names like James Bond, Avengers, Spider-Man, Star Wars, etc. With total worldwide gross earnings of $7.2 Billion (AED 26.45 Billion), the Fast & Furious franchise is bigger than the likes of DC Extended Universe, Batman, X-Men & even Jurassic Park.
The first Fast & Furious movie came out in 2001. The latest, named Fast X, debuted on 18 May 2023. The 10 F&F movies released so far portrayed some epic cars in action, and the recent F&F movie showcased some of the most brilliant cars ever created. Irrespective of whether one is a fan of classic cars, modern supercars, or JDM cars, there is something for everyone.
Here’s a list of the 12 coolest vehicles from Fast 10: 11 cars and one motorcycle to be exact.
12. Dodge Charger Daytona SRT EV
It is true that the Fast & Furious series is known for its fire-spitting, petrol-drinking cars that produce earth-shattering and wheelie-inducing levels of power. However, in the latest F&F movie, there seems to be a rather electric turn of events. Every single F&F movie has featured one or more versions of the Dodge Charger and Fast X is no different.
Only this time, there is a special appearance by an electric Dodge Charger. Seen in a minor role and only for a couple of seconds is the 2024 Dodge Charger Daytona SRT EV Concept. It is parked outside the famed Toretto House in Los Angeles when Dom gathers the ‘Family’ for a barbecue lunch.
The car was first revealed in 2022 and is said to be powered by an 800-volt electric architecture platform that Dodge calls the Banshee. While Dodge didn’t reveal the power figures, the American muscle car brand did mention that it will be faster than a V8-powered Hellcat. It is expected to be launched in 2024.
EVs surely are catching on very quickly indeed and the EV being featured in Fast X is the perfect example. If you’re interested in an EV, check out used electric vehicles for sale in the UAE & new electric vehicles for sale in the UAE.
11. 1975 Datsun 240Z
The Datsun 240Z is a JDM icon. It is one of those cars that is bound to be on the wishlist of every JDM (Japanese Domestic Market) car fanatic. In Fast X, the 1975 Datsun 240Z is one of the cars to race with Dom (Vin Diesel) in his Charger & Dante (Jason Momoa) in his Chevrolet Impala. It is driven by Isabel Neves (Daniela Melchior).
Originally, the 1975 Datsun 240Z was powered by a 2.4-litre inline-six-cylinder, 150hp petrol engine. In the movie though, it is claimed that this particular car Neves drives is powered by a tuned RB26 engine from a Nissan Skyline GT-R and the turbocharger sticking out of the bonnet is proof. However, behind-the-scenes reports reveal that it was actually powered by a small-block Chevy V8.
10. Harley-Davidson Pan America
Though a few motorcycles were used in Fast X, only one was cool enough to make it to this list. The custom supermoto ridden by Letty (Michelle Rodriguez) is great. However, the barebones Harley-Davidson Pan America is way cooler!
Get a matte black Pan America ADV Tourer, strip it to the bare minimum by removing the headlights, blinkers, instrument cluster, visor, fairing, etc, and you’ve got this cool machine ridden by Dante Reyes (Jason Momoa). It is powered by a 150hp, 1,252cc, V-Twin engine and has a throaty exhaust note.
9. Alfa Romeo 2000GT
Classy Italian styling paired with Han’s (Sung Kang) signature driving style results in one of the best scenes of Fast X. The Alfa Romeo 2000GT used in the movie is finished in a shade of bright Orange with Black stripes on the sides. It arrives in style with a nice drift and then chases down a bomb released in Rome along with the Lamborghini Gallardo.
The car used in the movie was powered by a Ford 2.3-litre, inline-four-cylinder engine. After the production of the movie was wrapped up, Sung Kang purchased the Alfa Romeo 2000GT from Universal Studios.
8. Lamborghini Gallardo
Just like its driver — Roman Pearce (Tyrese Gibson), the Lamborghini Gallardo in Fast X is all about being blingy and shiny while also being fast. The 2003 Lamborghini Gallardo is seen chasing down the Rolling Bomb in the city of Rome alongside the Alfa Romeo 2000 GT.
The Lamborghini Gallardo is wrapped in Gold and powered by a 5.0-litre V10 engine that puts out 500hp. Its screeching high-revving engine is surely a joy to hear, both in the movie and in real life.

7. 2023 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody
The lengthy name only means one thing — it is a special edition with an extra-special performance. This Dodge Charger is a modern muscle car with loads of gadgets to play around with. However, its powerful V8 engine is definitely not something to be toyed with. The 6.2-litre HEMI V8 puts out 807hp.
In addition, it features a larger and wider body styling along with more vents to allow for more cooling and air suction. It also has lots of new functional features like larger brakes, tyres, and retuned suspension.

In the movie, the Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody is driven by Dom Toretto on the roads and stairs of Rome, trying to stop/redirect the rolling bomb.
6. 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS
The Chevelle SS is another iconic muscle car from the 60s & 70s. It has an instantly recognisable silhouette and front fascia with four circular headlamps flanking the grille with the SS logo at the centre.
The Chevrolet Chevelle is no stranger to the F&F franchise. It is seen in the first movie, the fourth part, the seventh part, and now in Fast X. In Fast X though, the Chevelle doesn’t see any action. It is parked inside the iconic garage of the Toretto House in Los Angeles. Dom Toretto & his son are rebuilding the car and Han is seen admiring the muscle car. In the real world, the 1970 Chevelle SS was available with a massive 7.4-litre V8 engine.
There are just three Chevy Chevelle muscle cars for sale in the UAE.
