Today, Dodge is shaking the foundation of the entire performance car industry, launching New York International Auto Show week with its wickedly fast new 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon – highly capable on the street, absolutely dominating at the drag strip.

Powered by a 840horsepower, supercharged 6.2liter HEMI® Demon V8, the limitedproduction Challenger SRT Demon is the world’s most powerful factoryproduction V8 – bar none. NHRAcertified 9.65 seconds @ 140 mph makes the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon the fastest ¼mile car in the world.

Performance numbers:
030 mph: 1.0 second
060 mph: 2.3 seconds
Quartermile: 9.65 seconds at 140 mph

The Challenger SRT Demon also is the world’s first production car to lift the front wheels at launch and set the world record for longest wheelie from a standing start by a production car at 2.92 feet, certified by Guinness World Records. And hold onto your seat. The Challenger SRT Demon also registers the highest gforce (1.8 g) ever recorded at launch in a production car.

“With Demon, our goal was to build a car that would tattoo the Dodge logo into the subconscious of the general market, beyond even our loyal enthusiasts, said Tim Kuniskis, Head of Passenger Cars – Dodge, SRT, Chrysler and FIAT, FCA North America. “To do so, we had to set records that have never been set before, do more than has ever been done before, go beyond even the legendary Hellcat. The result: an 840horsepower, 9second muscle car unlike anything that has ever come before it.”
