The Hellcat is just roomier and easier to get in and out of. I can't comment on the lower trims as I do not have those as a DD. But the Hellcat will wear you out quicker.

I meant easier to drive from a normal human going to work perspective. I'm not doing any lane changes per se and the Challenger is far more tossable vs any Texas F250 truck. That said, yes the is a HUGE difference going from a Challenger, even one properly setup with a performance suspension, not slammer springs, to a 6th gen SS. The first day with a 6th gen lets you know that the Challenger is a 25 year old Benz design. There is no tossability at all with the Challenger and you need the mindset that you are in a 2.2 ton behemoth that is also RWD.
As an example with traction control on coming around a corner in first, If I push on the gas 1/2 way, the rear tires will break traction and the traction control will just straighten the car out like I was kind throttle control, actually, it is kind of fun. I bet it is even more fun with an eLSD. I've done it so many times that it is now old hat. With the Challenger I'd never trust the tracktion and stability control to keep me worry free. The car is just to heavy to toss
