The Dodge Demon V-Maxes At Just 164mph, But It Gets There Fast
Hennessey Performance took a standard Dodge Challenger SRT Demon and ran it to its maximum speed of just 164mph, but the way it gets there is... dramatic
The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is, as we all know, monstrously fast off the line. Banned from competition for being too fast, and fast enough even to make one American motoring title call for a blanket ban. We disagreed.
But one thing that’s rarely explored is its top speed. Geared for maximum punch over the quarter-mile, it’s less than you’d think: just 164mph. That’s 5mph slower than a Honda Civic Type R…
Anyhoo, Hennessey Performance decided to test it for themselves. Watch the video to see how incredibly quickly it gets there.
Comments
Just the other day R&T posted a video of this doing 203 mph
What???
The Demon has 800+HP and it can only do 164Mph I am pretty sure that weight dosen’t matter I can get to 170+MPH in a Challenger Hellcat.
Gearing
It’s because it has short gears for the drags
