807 HP 2021 Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock Revealed


FCA has just introduced a whole bunch of new cars, and the Dodge Challenger SRT Super Stock is probably the most impressive of them all.

Named after the Super Stock class of vehicles in drag racing, it’s based on the standard Widebody and has some very impressive performance numbers, with the automaker claiming that it is “the world’s quickest and most powerful muscle car”.


Built in the spirit of the 2018 Challenger SRT Demon, it packs the same 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI V8 mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The engine pumps out a staggering 807 horsepower (819 PS / 602 kW), 10 HP more than the standard SRT Hellcat Redeye, and 707 pound-feet (959 Nm) of torque.

The nought to 60 mph (0-96 km/h) takes 3.25 seconds and it can do the quarter mile in 10.5 seconds, with an exit speed of 131 mph (211 km/h). The top speed has been electronically limited to 168 mph (270 km/h) to protect the 315/40 drag radials that hug the 11×18-inch wheels.


The new Challenger SRT Super Stock also features Brembo brakes, a performance tuned assymetrical limited-slip differential and uniquely tuned Bilstein high-performance adaptive dampers, which are set to their firmest setting in Track mode. Other driving modes available include the Sport and Custom, as well as the Auto, which softens up the suspension. Launch Assist, Launch Control, Line Lock, Torque Reserve, Race Cooldown, SRT Performance Pages and SRT Power Chiller are also standard so you can make the most of all that performance.

Available in one of 13 different exterior colors that range from F8 Green to Hellraisin, Pitch Black, Sinamon Stick, Triple Nickel and others, which can be combined with Black, Demonic Red and Sepia interior tones, the Challenger SRT Super Stock will launch this summer. Production of the model is not limited and will continue throughout the 2021 model year, and although Dodge hasn’t announced the pricing yet, it did say that the first cars will arrive at dealers later this year.

Limited Edition Ford GT 'Competition Series' Is All About The Track

Image
Ford's new GT Competition Series was built with weight-saving in mind, but also with an improved center of gravity for better road-holding. Among its features, you'll notice the lightweight carbon fiber racing stripes, A-Pillars and side mirrors, as well as the unique race-inspired Perspex acrylic engine hatch with integrated venting. Thanks to the manual latch and the carbon fiber prop rod, weight near the roof has been reduced, though Ford engineers went even further in their quest to make the car lighter, by making the bulkhead Gorilla Glass behind the driver about half as thick (and as light) as on other models. "The Ford GT has racing in its blood," said Ford exec Raj Nair, while adding that the Competition Series "was developed with the most hardcore track enthusiasts in mind, providing a tailored set of lightweight features and unique livery to match." There are also plenty of remaining performance features from the production car, such as ...

Volkswagen T-Roc Cabriolet Is A Crossover For Droptop Lovers

Image
Droptop crossovers have always been rather odd and the T-Roc Cabriolet is no different. It will be the only convertible Volkswagen on sale for the foreseeable future and will celebrate its public debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. Rather than simply removing the roof of the standard T-Roc, Volkswagen has drastically altered the vehicle’s structure and body. In fact, its wheelbase is 37 mm longer than the standard T-Roc while its overall length is up by 34 mm. In addition, the Volkswagen T-Roc Cabriolet features structural strengthening in the underbody, side panels, cross members, doors, and windscreen frame to make up for the lack of a roof. The folding fabric roof developed by Volkswagen retracts in just nine seconds at speeds of up to 19 mph (30.5 km/h) and is similar in operation to the roof of the outgoing Golf Cabriolet. The presence of the soft top reduces trunk space by 161 liters down from the 284 liters of the run-of-the-mill T-Roc. We don’t think bu...

Alpine A110 Hits Geneva With Pure, Legende And GT4 Versions

Image
Renault’s reborn Alpine brand has been getting rave reviews for its new A110 and now, as promised, it’s revealed new versions of its coupe at the Geneva Motor Show. Following the success of the sold-out Premiere Edition, the A110 will now be offered in Pure and Legende trims. The A110 Pure is targeted at driving enthusiasts. It features one-piece Sabelt sports seats that weigh barely more than 13 kilograms (28.6 pounds) each and, combined with other weight-saving measures, helps keep the curb weight below 1,100 kg ( 2,425 lbs). It’s not entirely stripped out, though, and still comes with features like air-conditioning and satellite navigation. Buyers can also add upgraded Brembo brakes and an adaptive exhaust system and can upgrade to the adjustable comfort seats. Those come standard on the Legende model, which is geared more towards every day driving and grand touring and comes with leather upholstery. Customers can also choose between two Focal sound systems and two wheel...
