The 2023 Dodge Challenger Srt Demon 170 has arrived, marking the final and most formidable “Last Call” special edition. This limited-production muscle car isn’t just about raw power; it’s a statement. Housing the first-ever production HEMI engine to breach the 1,000 horsepower threshold, the Demon 170 is engineered to dominate. Its performance is so extreme that the NHRA has already banned it in stock form due to its staggering quarter-mile time of 8.91 seconds at 151.17 mph.
This incredible power is intelligently managed. The Demon 170’s horsepower output adapts to the ethanol content in the fuel, thanks to a sophisticated powertrain control module. Whether you’re using premium fuel or high-ethanol blends, the system recalibrates to optimize fueling and spark timing, ensuring you always tap into the maximum potential horsepower available.
Achieving a 40% boost increase and launching from 0-60 mph in a mere 1.66 seconds is no accident. The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 generates the highest g-force acceleration of any production car, hitting a brutal 2.004 Gs. This level of performance is the result of relentless engineering, rigorous testing, and an unwavering passion to deliver unprecedented numbers for the Brotherhood of Muscle. Extensive upgrades contribute to this beast’s capabilities, including a modified 3.0L supercharger, enhanced driveline components, TransBrake 2.0 for lightning-fast launches, a uniquely tuned drag mode suspension, and a striking staggered widebody design.
Production of this ultimate Challenger is capped at a maximum of 3,300 units, with 300 allocated for Canada. Orders open on Monday, March 27th, with a US MSRP starting at $96,666 and a Canadian MSRP of $134,785. Personalization is key, with a palette of 14 exterior colors, 2 Satin Black paint options, and 4 interior choices. Optional carbon fiber wheels further allow owners to tailor their Demon 170.
For existing 2018 Challenger SRT Demon owners, Dodge offers a unique perk. When ordering the new 2023 SRT Demon 170 from a participating dealer, you have the opportunity to request a VIN that matches your original Demon, creating a unique lineage between the two iconic models.
The Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 experience extends beyond the drive. Owners will receive customized, limited-edition, serialized items after delivery. These include a personalized commemorative Demon decanter set and a custom instrument panel badge. Furthermore, an appearance-mimicking Goodwool breathable mesh car shell will be available for purchase, allowing owners to further protect and showcase their prized possession. The Challenger SRT Demon 170 isn’t just a car; it’s a piece of automotive history, inviting enthusiasts to be part of an exclusive legacy.
