We’re Talking Power Here
Under the hood of Dodge’s menacing '08 Challenger SRT8 lies a 425-horsepower 6.1-liter Hemi V-8 distributing 420 lb.-ft. of torque to the rear tires by way of a five-speed automatic with manual shift control. Later in production, the Challenger will get a six-speed manual with a pistol-grip shifter. Zero-60 claims are under five seconds with quarter-mile times in the low thirteens. Top speed is listed at 170 mph.
