Dodge has unveiled the 2023 Challenger SRT Demon 170, which is the quickest, fastest, and most powerful muscle car in the world. This is the seventh and final “Last Call” special edition of the brand. It was launched during the Dodge Last Call Powered by Roadkill Nights Vegas performance festival at The Strip at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 reaches 60 mph in only 1.66 seconds, making it the first-ever eight-second factory muscle car in history.
The 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 comes with several features and upgrades critical to harnessing the 1,025 horsepower. Its modified 3.0-liter supercharger features a larger snout with 105mm throttle body and 3.02-inch pulley. The new driveline includes HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing) processed housings, larger 240mm ring and pinion, and pressure cast new case and new mountings. It is also built with rear axle housing that is 53% stronger with new geometry rear differential housing and featuring Direct Connection logo.
The Challenger SRT Demon 170's primary engine power components are entirely upgraded, and it has a high-flow fuel rail and injectors capable of providing 164 gallons of fuel per hour. It features staggered drag radial tires and fender flares, a revised rear suspension for an increased contact patch, and unique Drag Mode suspension that provides maximum forward drive and custom race settings for drag calibrations. Its patent-pending TransBrake 2.0 includes torque-shaping capability, and it comes with the first-ever factory production car built with staggered drag radial tires and fender flares.
The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 will be available in 14 exterior color options and four interior choices, including standard lightweight cloth with driver seat only, optional full cloth interior, premium Black Nappa leather and Alcantara or Demonic Red Laguna leather. It is available for ordering beginning March 27, 2023, and the production will be limited to at most 3,300 units, with 3,000 for the U.S. market and 300 for Canada, and with final total based on production capacity.
