Dodge has just revealed its latest creation, The Challenger SRT Demon 170, and it’s making waves in the automotive world. It is the most powerful and quickest production-ready muscle car in the world.

The new dodge boasts a 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI V8 engine, which has been upgraded and tweaked to produce an impressive 900 HP and 810 lb-ft of torque when running on standard E10 pump fuel. However, if you opt for an E85 ethanol blend, you’ll get a jaw-dropping 1,025 HP and 945 lb-ft of torque.

Furthermore, the acceleration and performance of the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 are unmatched in a road-legal car. It can go from 0 to 60 MPH in just 1.66 seconds, pulling 2.004 Gs from acceleration. During testing, the Demon 170 achieved a quarter-mile run in just 8.91 seconds at a top speed of 151.17 MPH. This feat is made possible thanks to the car’s special programming and components found within the chassis, suspension, and body.

Also, the rear tires of the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 measure 17 inches by 11 inches, while the “Drag Mode” suspension tuning propels the car forward while keeping the rear wheels down. The car’s torque-shaping technology prevents the car from spinning up its wheels, and the adaptive dampers provide maximum weight transfer. All of these features, including “Line Lock” burnout modes, ensure that the car launches perfectly every time.

For even better results, the Demon 170 can be equipped with carbon fiber wheels, which are lighter than the stock aluminum ones, saving over 31 lbs across all four wheels. As standard, the car is also made lighter than its predecessors, with lightweight front brakes, hollow sway bars, passenger and rear seat delete, trunk trim, and noise, vibration, and harshness pad delete, and lightweight interior carpets with a minimal audio system.

If you’re one of the lucky few to get your hands on the Challenger SRT Demon 170, you’ll also receive a numerically-detailed decanter set, enhancing the ownership experience. The car is limited to just 3,330 units, each with a price tag of $96,666 USD.
