The 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon: The King of Modern Muscle Cars

The 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is a legendary muscle car that redefined performance standards for factory-built street-legal vehicles. Unveiled at the 2017 New York International Auto Show, the SRT Demon was designed to be the most powerful and fastest quarter-mile production car ever made. Its supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI V8 engine produces an astonishing 840 horsepower and 770 lb-ft of torque when running on high-octane fuel, enabling the Demon to rocket from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.3 seconds.

The engineering marvel of the Challenger SRT Demon lies not only in its monstrous power but also in its drag racing-specific innovations. It was the first production car equipped with a TransBrake, line lock, and factory-fitted drag radials, making it drag-strip ready straight out of the showroom. The Demon holds the Guinness World Record for the longest wheelie from a standing start by a production car, adding to its already impressive legacy among muscle car enthusiasts and collectors.

Despite its race-oriented focus, the Demon was remarkably successful in terms of sales and exclusivity. With only 3,300 units produced—3,000 for the United States and 300 for Canada—the SRT Demon became an instant collector's item, commanding high demand and retaining value in the resale market. Its unique blend of raw power, dramatic design, and limited production run ensures the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon remains a milestone in the ongoing story of American muscle cars.
