Dodge Challenger SRT Demon: Wow! A street legal and fully-warranted beast capable of 0-60mph in 2.3 seconds!

 

2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon Pulls the Wheels

April 11, 2017

, Auburn Hills, Mich.

-

Dodge rocked the high-performance car world in 2014 with the
707-horsepower Charger SRT Hellcat and Challenger SRT Hellcat, building
supercar performance at affordable prices. They were the most powerful
muscle cars ever“ until now.

 

Today, Dodge is shaking the foundation of the entire performance car
industry, launching New York International Auto Show week with its
wickedly fast new 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon“ highly capable on
the street, absolutely dominating at the drag strip.

 

Powered by a 840-horsepower, supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® Demon V-8, the
limited-production Challenger SRT Demon is the world's most powerful
factory-production V-8 bar none.  NHRA-certified 9.65 seconds @
140 mph makes the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon the fastest ¼-mile car in
the world.

 

Performance numbers:

• 0-30 mph: 1.0 second 
• 0-60 mph: 2.3 seconds
• Quarter-mile: 9.65 seconds at 140 mph

 

The Challenger SRT Demon also is the world's first production car to
lift the front wheels at launch and set the world record for longest
wheelie from a standing start by a production car at 2.92 feet,
certified by Guinness World Records. And hold onto your seat. The
Challenger SRT Demon also registers the highest g-force (1.8 g) ever
recorded at launch in a production car.

 

With Demon, our goal was to build a car that would tattoo the Dodge
logo into the subconscious of the general market, beyond even our loyal
enthusiasts, said Tim Kuniskis, Head of Passenger Cars“ Dodge, SRT,
Chrysler and FIAT, FCA North America. To do so, we had to set records
that have never been set before, do more than has ever been done before,
go beyond even the legendary Hellcat. The result: an 840-horsepower,
9-second muscle car unlike anything that has ever come before it.

 



The Challenger SRT Demon's record-setting performance is the result of
collaboration among the Dodge//SRT, Design, Engineering, Powertrain and
Manufacturing teams inside FCA US LLC, many of whom are experienced and
active drag racers. While the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon remains a
potent street car, every component was scrutinized and optimized for
weight, capability and durability on the strip.

 

The performance records flow from an impressive list of street-legal production car industry firsts. That list includes:

• Factory-installed wider, Nitto street-legal drag radials for
  improved grip, 40 percent more launch force compared with SRT Hellcat
  tires
• Available Direct Connection engine controller calibrated for 100+ unleaded high-octane fuel
• SRT Power Chiller redirects air conditioning refrigerant to chill the charger air cooler
• After-Run Chiller runs the cooling fan and the low-temperature circuit coolant pump after engine shutdown
• TransBrake locks the output shaft of the TorqueFlite eight-speed
  automatic transmission to hold the car before launch, allowing the
  driver to increase engine rpm for higher torque and quicker response
• Torque Reserve boosts engine air flow and supercharger rpm before launch, delivering wickedly fast acceleration
• Drag Mode suspension tuning maximizes weight transfer to the rear wheels for better traction
• Drag Mode Launch Assist uses wheel speed sensors to watch for
  driveline-damaging wheel hop at launch and in milliseconds modifies the
  engine torque to regain full grip and then continues accelerating the
  car down the track
• Available narrow œfront runner wheels for use at drag strips cuts front-end weight
• Wide-body exterior styling, with concealed wheel well attachments house Challenger SRT Demon's massively wide 315/40R18 tires
• Front passenger seat and rear seat deleted to reduce weight (can be optioned back for $1 each)

 

Production of the limited-edition single model year Challenger SRT Demon
begins later this summer, with 3,000 vehicles for the United States and
300 vehicles for Canada. Deliveries to Dodge//SRT dealers will begin
this fall.

 

Dodge has named Hagerty as its official insurance provider of the Dodge
Challenger SRT Demon.“ Hagerty is a company for people who love cars and
they already protect many of the rarest high performance cars in the
world.

 

Demon'™s heart: Supercharged V-8

The heart of the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is the supercharged
6.2-liter HEMI Demon V-8, rated at 840 horsepower and 770 pounds-feet of
torque. The red-painted Demon engine has been certified to the SAE
J1349 industry standard for its horsepower and torque ratings. The
engine also meets all applicable legal emissions regulations.

 

While the Demon V-8 shares its architecture with the 707-hp 6.2-liter
supercharged HEMI Hellcat V-8, it is not simply a Hellcat engine with
more boost. The Demon V-8 engine has 25 major component upgrades from
the Hellcat engine, including supercharger, pistons, rods, valve train
and fuel injection system.



Among the changes, compared with the Hellcat V-8, the Demon'™s supercharged V-8 features:

• Larger supercharger: 2.7 liters versus 2.4 liters
• Increased boost pressure: 14.5 psi versus 11.6 psi
• Higher rpm limit: 6,500 rpm versus 6,200 rpm
• Fuel: Two dual-stage fuel pumps versus one
• Larger induction air box with three sources of intake air:
  Air-Grabber hood, driver-side Air-Catcher headlamp and an inlet near
  the wheel liner

 

In addition, the HEMI Demon V-8 includes a high-speed valvetrain,
strengthened connecting rods and pistons, and improved lubrication
system. The upgrades enable the engine to sustain higher output and
pressures while meeting FCA US LLC's stringent durability requirements.

 

One key to the Challenger SRT Demon's best-ever power output is air --
the supercharged Demon V-8 takes in plenty of it. The SRT Demon'™s
Air-Grabber hood includes the largest functional hood scoop (45.2
square inches) of any production car.

 

The Air-Grabber hood is sealed to the air box, which is also fed from
the driver-side Air-Catcher headlamp and an inlet near the wheel liner.
Combined, those sources give the Demon V-8 an air-flow rate of 1,150
cubic feet per minute, 18 percent greater than the Hellcat V-8 and the
largest air induction volume of any production car.

 

The additional air inlets help reduce the temperature of the intake air
by more than 30 degrees Fahrenheit compared with the Hellcat V-8, which
improves overall throttle response.

 

Heat is the enemy of speed at the drag strip, so Dodge//SRT engineers
looked for more ways to keep the intake air as close to the optimum
temperature as possible.

 

The innovative SRT Power Chiller is a production car first. It diverts
the air-conditioning refrigerant from the SRT Demon's interior to a
chiller unit mounted by the low-temperature circuit coolant pump. Charge
air coolant, after being cooled by ambient air passing through a
low-temperature radiator at the front of the vehicle, flows through the
chiller unit, where it is further cooled. The chilled coolant then flows
to the heat exchangers in the supercharger.

 

Every run down the drag strip generates plenty of heat. The After-Run
Chiller, a factory-production car first, helps the SRT Demon get ready
for the next run as quickly as possible.

 

When the engine is shut down, the After-Run Chiller keeps the engine
cooling fan and low-temperature circuit coolant pump running to lower
the supercharger/charge air cooler temperature, helping the Challenger
SRT Demon minimize heat soak effects. The driver can track the
supercharger coolant temperature on the 8.4-inch Uconnect touchscreen in
the instrument panel, and know in real time when the supercharger is at
the optimum temperature for another run.

 

The impact of the SRT Power Chiller and After-Run Chiller, combined,
lowers intake air temperature by up to 45 degrees Fahrenheit.

 

Fueling performance: 100+ unleaded high octane

The Challenger SRT Demon is the first-ever, street-legal
factory-production car designed to run on 100+ unleaded high-octane
fuel. That fuel is readily available at select gas stations, specialty
shops and drag strips.

 

The keys to unleashing the SRT Demon's full performance fury are in the
Demon Crate: Direct Connection Performance Parts include a new
powertrain control module calibrated for the high-octane unleaded fuel
and a new switch bank for the center stack that includes a high-octane
button.

 

The SRT Demon leaves the factory with a powertrain control module
configured for 91-octane premium unleaded pump gasoline, which delivers
top level performance.

 

The switch to the Direct Connection controller enables the supercharged
HEMI engine to extract the maximum power from the knock-resistant fuel
at high pressures and optimum spark timing. Drag racers can anticipate
improvements in elapsed times (ETs) and trap speeds with the high-octane
fuel.

 

The Challenger SRT Demon is engineered to be able to run on a mix of
100+ octane and premium unleaded fuels without hurting the engine, but
the high-octane function won't activate if the combined fuel octane is
too low. A message in the gauge display tells the driver the car will
use the premium fuel calibration until the engine is shut off and
restarted. How does the car know? The controller monitors the engine's
knock sensors.

 

There will be plenty of fuel available: the SRT Demon carries dual fuel
pumps (versus one pump in the Challenger SRT Hellcat), larger fuel
injectors and fuel lines that handle higher pressures.

 

Similar to the Challenger SRT Hellcat, the SRT Demon comes with two key
fobs. The black fob limits engine output to 500 horsepower. The red key
fob unlocks the engine's full output of 808 horsepower and 717
pounds-feet torque. With either key fob, the driver can activate Eco and
Valet Modes. Eco Mode revises the transmission shift schedule to
include second-gear starts. Valet Mode limits the engine to 4,000 rpm
and reduces torque output.

 

The high-octane unleaded fuel capability with the optional Direct
Connection powertrain controller boosts engine output to 840 horsepower
and 770 pounds-feet of torque.  

 

TransBrake is a production car first

Every Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is equipped with the standard
TorqueFlite 8HP90 eight-speed automatic transmission. Already a proven
and robust gearbox used with the HEMI Hellcat V-8, the transmission gets
some significant changes for duty in the Challenger SRT Demon.

 

Internal changes include an upgraded torque converter that delivers an
18 percent increase in torque multiplication. Also, the stall speed is
increased 11 percent and the lockup speed is increased.

 

The Challenger SRT Demon is the first-ever, factory-production car with
TransBrake, which locks the transmission output shaft to hold the car in
place before a standing start. This lets the driver increase engine
speed up to 2,350 rpm without overpowering the brakes, resulting in
quicker power delivery and up to 15 percent more torque at launch.

 

Driver-oriented step-by-step instructions are displayed on the
instrument cluster to guide the driver through the staging process and
help them keep their focus on the Christmas Tree.

 

The TransBrake helps to improve driver reaction time and launch
consistency by using the steering wheel paddle shifters as a launch
trigger --“ a paddle launch improves reaction time by 30 percent compared
with a foot-brake launch. In addition, the system enables delivery of
initial torque to the flywheel as soon as 20 milliseconds after launch.

 

TransBrake works in conjunction with another SRT Demon first-ever
factory-production car feature, Torque Reserve, to deliver increased
levels of power and torque at launch.

 

Torque Reserve becomes active once engine speed passes 950 rpm. It does two things:

• Closes the bypass valve, œprefilling the supercharger with boost
• Manages fuel flow to cylinders and manages spark advance or retard to balance engine rpm and torque

 

With TransBrake and Torque Reserve active, the SRT Demon has more than 8
psi of boost at launch and up to 120 percent more engine torque than
without Torque Reserve. TransBrake also preloads the driveline with
torque, leading to full engine torque delivery at the rear wheels 150
milliseconds after the shift paddle is released. That results in faster
acceleration at launch, faster 60-foot times and an improvement of more
than a tenth of a second in quarter-mile times, which can be an entire
car length.

 

Driveline components have been upgraded to get all that power and torque to the rear wheels, on every run.

 

Changes include:

• Upgraded prop shaft with a 15 percent increase in torque capacity.
  The prop shaft uses high-strength steel. Shaft tube thickness increases
  by 20 percent and the stub shafts are heat treated for enhanced
  durability
• The rear differential housing has 30 percent more torque capacity.
  The housing is made from heat-treated A383 aluminum alloy. New material
  for the gear set has higher fatigue strength, with a deeper case
  hardening depth and two-step shot-peening manufacturing process to
  increase compressive residual stress
• The rear half shafts are larger in diameter; use a high-strength,
  low-alloy steel; and have 41 splines (up from 38), delivering a 20
  percent increase in torque capacity. Eight-ball joints handle more
  torque, while reducing operating temperatures by more than 86 degrees
  Fahrenheit

 

Production car first: Drag-mode Launch Assist

SRT engineers went digital to isolate and resolve one of the biggest
challenges to clean launches and driveline integrity wheel hop.

 

In simple terms, wheel hop happens when tires quickly slip and regain
traction at launch, rapidly storing up and releasing energy in the
driveline. These high torque spikes can quickly and severely damage
driveline components and up until now, the only solution was to back
out of the throttle.

 

Not with the Challenger SRT Demon. In a first for a factory-production
car, the SRT Demon'™s Launch Assist uses the wheel speed sensors to watch
for signs that the tires are slipping/sticking. If slip is detected,
the SRT Demon'Âs control module momentarily reduces engine torque to
maximize traction almost instantly“ without the driver having to lift.
Launch Assist reduces loads in the driveline from wheel hop by more than
15-20 percent, dramatically reducing component damage.

 

Production car first: Street-legal drag tires

The Challenger SRT Demon is equipped with a set of four standard Nitto
NT05R street-legal, drag-race tires, a first for a factory-production
car.

 

The 315/40R18 tires were specifically designed and developed exclusively
for the SRT Demon, with a new compound and specific tire sidewall
construction. The drag radials give the SRT Demon a 15-percent larger
tire contact patch and more than twice the grip of the Challenger SRT
Hellcat.

 

The sticky drag tires are mounted on lightweight 11x18-inch wheels, with
each tire measuring 12.6 inches wide. Putting full-size tires at all
four corners gives drag racers an extra set of rear tires when the front
tires are replaced with narrow front-runners at the track.

 

A unique rear knuckle reduces negative camber by 0.5 degrees, standing
up the tire and increasing the size of the tire contact patch.



Engineering: More traction, less weight

The main mission of the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is to cover the
quarter mile as quickly as possible. To do this, it combines the best of
both mechanical and electronic tuning to deliver maximum launch grip
while still maintaining precision directional control.

 

The Bilstein Adaptive Damping shocks have been tuned for drag racing,
shifting as much weight as possible on the rear tires at launch for
maximum traction. The weight transfer improves rear tire grip by 11
percent.

 

Mechanically, weight shift in the Challenger SRT Demon is aided by
softening up some key suspension components. Those changes, compared
with the Challenger SRT Hellcat, include:

• Softer springs: 35 percent lower rate front/28 percent lower rate rear
• Softer, lighter, hollow sway bars: 75 percent lower rate front/44 percent lower rate rear

 

When Drag Mode is activated, the front Bilstein shocks are set for firm
compression and soft rebound damping, while the rear Bilstein shocks are
set for firm compression and firm rebound damping.

 

That configuration is maintained as long as the car runs at wide open
throttle. When the driver backs off the gas pedal, the system switches
to firm compression and firm rebound front and rear for improved
handling. 

 

Also during Drag Mode, the traction control system is disabled to enable
the rear wheels to spin for a burnout, but the electronic stability
control system remains engaged to help the driver with straight-line
performance.

 

In pursuit for every tenth of a second, engineers looked to cut as much
weight as possible. The result: Equipment removed from the Challenger
SRT Demon weighs more than 200 pounds.

 

How the weight was lost:

• 58 pounds: Removed front passenger seat and belt
• 55 pounds: Removed rear seat, restraints and floor mats
• 24 pounds: Removed 16 audio speakers, amplifier and associated wiring
• 20 pounds: Removed trunk deck cover trim, carpeting, spare tire cover
• 19 pounds: Used smaller, hollow sway bars
• 18 pounds: Removed mastic, body deadeners, insulators and foam
• 16 pounds: Used lightweight all-aluminum four-piston brake caliper and smaller, 360-mm two-piece rotor
• 16 pounds: Switched to lightweight wheels and open-end lug nuts
• 4 pounds: Switched to manual tilt/telescope steering column
• 2 pounds: Removed park sensors and module

 

Buyers have the option to add back the front passenger seat, rear seats
and trunk carpeting kit for $1 each. Other options include the Harman
Kardon 19-speaker, 900-watt audio system, power sunroof, heated and
ventilated leather front seats with heated steering wheel, painted Satin
Black hood, or new painted Satin Black hood, roof and decklid package.



Dual personalities: Performance Pages and Drive Modes

The 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon gives the driver the capability to
set up the car for on-road precision, maximum drag strip performance or
anything in between.

 

The nerve center for those personalities is SRT Performance Pages and
Drive Modes, displayed on the Uconnect 8.4-inch touchscreen.

 

Performance Pages arm the driver with real-time data, including a
graphic display of engine horsepower and torque with gear changes
plotted; supercharger coolant temperature; timers for reaction time,
0-60 miles per hour (mph), 0-100 mph, eighth-mile and quarter-mile
elapsed time and vehicle speed; instantaneous and peak longitudinal and
lateral g-forces; and gauge readouts for engine oil temperature and
pressure, coolant temperature, transmission fluid temperature, intake
air temperature, air-fuel ratio; intercooler coolant temperature, boost
pressure and battery voltage.

 

The Drive Modes include the Challenger SRT Demon-exclusive Drag Mode.
Drive Mode settings include Auto (Street) Mode, which sets the Bilstein
Adaptive Damping Suspension (ADS) for comfortable ride with compliant
handling, and Custom Mode, which lets the driver select between Auto and
Drag Mode configurations for the transmission, paddle shifters,
traction, suspension and steering.

• Auto (Street) Mode options:
  
  • Engine output level is set based on which Demon key is in the vehicle  
  • If red key is present, the power level can be set per customer preference
  • Transmission, suspension and steering default to Auto Mode (Street)
  • Customers can set suspension and steering preference
  • Electronic Stability Control defaults to full on
  • Paddle shifters can be turned on or off per customer preference
  • Eco mode is available only in Auto Mode
  
  

 

• Drag Mode options:
  
  • TorqueFlite eight-speed transmission runs a calibration optimized for acceleration
  • Electronic Stability Control is optimized for straight-line acceleration
  • Suspension calibration changes to full firm in rear and firm compression/soft rebound in front
  • Paddle shifters are turned on
  • Steering is set to Drag Mode for high-speed stability
  • Cabin cooling diverted to SRT Power Chiller
  • Torque converter lockup point is raised in Drag Mode
  • TransBrake is available in Drag Mode only
  
  

 

• Custom Mode options:
  
  • Nearly every combination of options available in Auto (Street) or
    Drag can be configured in the Custom Mode. For example, a driver could
    select the elements of Drag Mode related to engine and transmission
    performance, but could select Sport Mode for the suspension and
    steering, providing the on-road driving dynamics of a Challenger SRT
    Hellcat
  
  

 

When equipped with the Direction Connection Performance Parts powertrain
control module, the driver can use 100+ high-octane unleaded fuel in
any drive mode.



Drivers can also select line lock, which engages the front brakes to
hold the Challenger SRT Demon stationary but leaves the rear wheels free
for a burnout to heat up and clean the rear tires. The system will also
let the driver perform a controlled rolling burnout. The system engages
for up to 400 rear wheel revolutions.

 

Performance Pages also includes rpm-adjustable launch control and
by-individual-gear-adjustable shift light displayed in the instrument
cluster.  A new data recorder feature lets the Challenger SRT Demon
driver build an archive of data to help optimize the car for track and
weather conditions, while helping to improve driving techniques.

 

Eco and Valet Modes are accessed in the Performance Pages. When Valet
Mode is activated, engine horsepower is reduced and rpm is limited to
4,000. Also, certain performance features, such as steering wheel paddle
shifters and Launch Control, are disabled. The driver can activate and
de-activate Valet Mode with a four-digit PIN code they create.

 

Functional and Intimidating Design

The 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is the widest Challenger ever and
first-ever, factory-production muscle car with wide-body fender flares.

 

The wide body flares are designed to amplify the Challenger SRT Demon'™s
menacing stance, while making room for wider tires with concealed
attachments. The fender flares, which cover the lightweight 18x11-inch
wheels with exclusive, specifically designed Demon-branded 315/40R18
Nitto NT05R drag radial tires front and rear; add 3.5 inches to the
Challenger SRT Demon'™s overall width. The front side marker lights are
styled to flow with the shape of the fender flares.

 

The entire chassis is e-coated for durability before final assembly.

 

Additional defining exterior features include the wide Air-Grabber hood
scoop --“ the largest functional hood scoop (45.2 square inches) of any
production car “and new Demon logos flanking each fender.
