2019 Dodge Challenger: Deceased Demon seeds stronger and wider muscle-car lineup

The 2019 Dodge Challenger lineup sees a savvy refresh that keenly redistributes its muscle-car strengths. With the one-model-year-only Demon passing into quarter-mile lore, its bawdy 808-hp supercharged V8 has been reapplied to create a more powerful Redeye version of the supercharged Challenger SRT Hellcat.

Both the “regular” Hellcat and new Redeye version will be available in normal or Widebody configurations, though the shapely sheetmetal option is no longer a Hellcat exclusive. For 2019, the track-focused, naturally aspirated Challenger R/T Scat Pack trim will also be available with the wider track and fenders. The organ donation continues with a new Hemi-powered “1320” model receiving some of the Demon's drag racing tech to make it the new choice for quarter-mile aficionados.
