On HEMI Day (April 26), Dodge unveiled the thrilling 1,025-horsepower Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 in a spectacular event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. This 22-minute video, “Dodge Demon 170: Devil in the Details,” showcases the incredible reveal, including insights from Dodge executives, Jay Leno, and other insiders who helped bring this stunning stunt to life.
Devil in the Details: An Epic Reveal
Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis and his team wanted to end this era with a bang, making a statement for the brand’s 13 million-plus fans. The dramatic helicopter-drop debut of the Demon 170 at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway was an unforgettable event. With the K-MAX helicopter’s unique wooden rotor blades and constant communication with Nellis Air Force Base, the helicopter pilot Neal Jenson executed the stunt flawlessly, lifting the Demon 170 high above the track.
The Ultimate Muscle Car: Performance and Reliability
Jim Wilder, vehicle development manager for the Challenger SRT program, emphasized the importance of consistency, performance, and reliability in creating the world’s fastest, quickest, and most powerful mass-produced muscle car. With numerous tests and broken components along the way, the final product is a stunning vehicle that can be driven to the grocery store and still set incredible track times.
A Golden Age of Muscle Cars
Jay Leno, car aficionado, believes that we’re currently in the Golden Age of muscle cars. The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170, with its impressive acceleration and a quarter-mile elapsed time of 8.91 seconds at 151.17 mph, certainly supports his claim. Production for the 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 begins this summer, with no more than 3,300 units being produced.
