The Dodge Demon is an absolute beast
Dodge brand boss Tim Kuniskis introduces the 840 hp Challenger SRT Demon at the New York International Auto Show. The drag racing special is the most-powerful American car ever and the quickest car in the world.
The Demon may be a devilishly good deal for what's purported to be the world's quickest car.
Dodge’s new 808 hp Challenger SRT Demon will cost $86,090 when deliveries begin this fall.

That’s a little less than a $20,000 premium over the 707 HP Challenger SRT Hellcat it’s based on, but the Demon comes with more than the extra power and drag-racing technology that makes it special, if you’re willing to spend a buck more.
THE DODGE DEMON IS AN ABSOLUTE BEAST
Just $1 gets you the Demon Crate, which is worth $6,140 and comes with a set of tools and parts to use at the track, plus a conical air filter and an engine control module that gives the Demon’s 6.2-liter supercharged V8 the ability to run on 100+ octane race gas and pump out 840 hp.
A passenger seat for the Demon -- which only comes with a driver’s seat -- is also available for $1, as are a rear bench and a carpet for the stripped-out trunk.
Red seat belts will set you back a bit more at $195, while several other packages are available, including a $2,495 comfort group that comes with leather upholstery, heated seats and steering wheel, and an 18-speaker audio system for the most luxurious 9.65 quarter-mile trip down the drag strip you can imagine.
