The 2023 Challenger SRT Demon will be the last V8 car that Stellantis, which owns Dodge, will produce, and it will also be its most powerful, CNBC reported. The new Challenger boasts a 6.2 liter supercharged V8 with 1,025 horsepower and 945 foot-pounds of torque, ripping to 60 mph in 1.66 seconds, making it the fastest production car in the world, according to Dodge.
Dodge announced last summer that it would begin to transition away from gas-powered vehicles and toward EVs by the end of this year due to strict government emissions regulations.
