Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

Saw a news report about Fiat coming out with a Hellcat killer. They threw out the name Demon, but aren't giving any details as of yet. Jeff Teuton, or anybody else in the know have any info?

Saw this; I'll have to look for the picture of the concept car they're calling the Demon...little 2 door convertible with big fenders, not very attractive IMO.

You can Google a bunch of articles on this , but it sounds like the Challenger SRT Demon is supposed to be above a Hellcat in performance .Wow!

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

Will it be available with the special diesel emission software?

Fiat Spider

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

the Fiat Spider is made by Mazda in Japan on the same assembly line as the Miata and is the same other than using Fiat engines.

I think it's about time they deep sixed that front end, looks too much like an Audi from the back-side, don't care how fast it is, butt ugly.

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

Luckily, the only thing that the gold colored sportscar concept has in common with the Challenger Demon is the Demon name.

Concept car from at least 10 years ago...maybe more

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

That's not it Jim. The original concept cat was based on the current Dodge Dart platform but that was back in 2012. Totally different car now. The new Dodge Challenger SRT Demon will be shown in April of 2017 and for sale as a 2018 car. Jim

Thanks Jim, media got it wrong...imagine that! Look forward to seeing the new one. At the Woodburn Oregon Mopar show last summer you wouldn't believe how many Challenger SRT and Hellcats were there, got the Hellcat fever for a while but the wife got me over that in a hurry. Cool cars though.

The Demon is officially a go. But tight lips on content, engine, etc. It was originally the ADR (American Drag Racing) model, and I really didn't think it would make it to production. I was some people who know, but I guess loose lips sink ships or drive the media and the dealers crazy. I know it is hellcat based and we hearing 800 hp, fender flares. The original prototype came with 4 tires in the trunk, drag radials and light fronts. No rear seat. But whatever it is, it's a go. I don't know if they turned up the 6.1 with the 2.3 blower or is it a 392, 426, and what blower. The spies know.

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

That is going to be excellent, i like that is comes with extra rims and tires

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

I think they look more like this...

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

I think that's it or the first prototype a couple years ago. I have been able to find out it has a bigger blower, and maybe some head and camshaft changes. It is still a 6.2. I got my spies out, but look for another midnight announcement soon from Mother Mopar.

This weeks' Demon teaser video is now available for viewing at http://www.dodge.com/en/ifyouknowyouknow/

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

The new videos are certainly just teasers , I wished they would show what they did to reduce the weight of the Demon by 200 lbs over the Hellcat .

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

They spent some cash on video's, 200 pounds lighter is a lot ... where it go?

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

Uh oh! Somebody snuck this pic out!
The Demon is going to be badass for sure. That's about all I can say as I've been sworn to secrecy.

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

There was another article on Autoline Daily about how they got the weight out of the Demon . Basics are no rear seats , no radio , hollow sway bars , smaller brakes , and the wheels are lighter .

Re: Dodge Challenger -Demon
 

Today's teaser implies that it will come with smaller front tires, ether in the trunk or in a crate.
