The Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat is certainly quite an exciting car even upon hearing its name, and that’s before you find out that under the bonnet, there’s a 6.2 litre supercharged HEMI V8 that delivers 707 hp and 880 Nm. Well, the carmaker isn’t done yet, and will soon unveil the Challenger SRT Demon at this year’s New York International Auto Show (NYIAS).
Since that won’t take place until April, Dodge has begun its teaser campaign for the new model, with two teasers being released recently. The first, titled Cage, is as eccentric as you’d expect, where you’ll see a “hellcat transform into a demon,” which doesn’t reveal much in the way of info.
The second teaser – Reduction is a little more enlightening, as it shows the Demon will be 90 kg lighter than its Hellcat sibling/spawnling. There will also be adjustments to the car’s wheels, steering, suspension, brakes, interior construction and other components.
Excited? Well, thanks to Vin Diesel, you can get a good look at the Demon ahead of its scheduled debut mentioned above. In a YouTube video featuring the Fate of the Furious actor discussing the movie, you can clearly see (around the 0:03 mark) two Dodge Challengers in the background wearing the Demon’s logo on the fender, exactly where you’ll find the Hellcat logo. Additionally, the larger hood scoop certainly appear to about the same shape as that seen in the Reduction teaser.
Of course, nothing is set in stone for now, and we’ll have to wait for the official reveal to take place to confirm such a claim. The carmaker refers to the Demon as its “new ultimate performance halo” car, so we should expect even more power from the V8 as well.

Americans are Hippocrates. Build a gas guzzler with 6.2 litre engine then blame Asia for destroying the ozone and environment.
At least Asia got cars 2000cc and below.
Americans are “Hippocrates”, eh? The Americans have the extensive land mass, together with lengthly highway systems to accommodate a “gas guzzling,6.2 litre” powered road machine.
The real “h-y-p-o-c-r-i-t-e-s” are those rich, “showboat” Asians who pay ridiculous amounts of money to import such vehicle types, to their “little” SE Asian countries, to begin with.
In addition, “Kunte_Kinte” (misnomer), try to get a reality check first, and a clue secondly, prior to posting any more of your intellectually “considered” opinions, eh?
John,
