Vehicle Description
Top Gear reported:
The world's fastest production vehicle 0-60mph time. Posting a
satanically fast time of just 2.3 seconds - with rollout that time
sinks to 2.1 seconds - it is faster than a Bugatti Chiron (2.4secs)
and the Tesla P100D with Ludicrous Plus (2.3 and a little bit). And
that's with the Demon being rear-wheel drive only compared with
those two cars' all-wheel drive platforms.
The world's fastest-ever production car over the quarter mile.
Ready for this time? The Dodge Demon trips the lights at an
insanely fast 9.65 seconds and on to a top speed of 140mph. You
want a comparo? The latest ultra cars from McLaren, Porsche, and
Ferrari can manage 'only' 9.8 seconds. The Chiron might ultimately
beat it when it finally appears. But for now the Demon is the king
of the quarter mile.
The highest production car acceleration G-force. You can't achieve
the above feats without some physics happening. And the Demon is no
different. Consider for a second what 1.8G of acceleration in the
Demon feels like. Yeah, exactly.
The world's first production car to fully lift its front wheels
while accelerating. Yes, you read that right: the Demon pulls
wheelies. Not huge, rear bumper-destroying ones. But a wheelie is a
wheelie when it's the world's first. And that's not just Dodge's
claim - it brought along the folks from the Guinness World Records
to verify it, which they did. It was only for 2.92ft (0.89m) but it
earned the Demon the title of 'The longest wheelie from a standing
start in a production car'.
Been banned by the National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) from any of
its member tracks. Quite simply, for being too fast.
