| New Dodge Challenger looks like Old skool at Sema 2010 |
The 2011 Dodge Challenger has two new engines, the Pentastar V6 and the 392 Hemi; the 3.6 liter V6 is a high-tech powerplant with 305 horsepower and 268 lb-ft of torque, along with higher gas mileage. The 392 Hemi is rated at 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque, and thanks to cylinder shutoff (on the automatic version), it should easily beat the smaller (2010) 6.1 SRT8 engine’s performance. The standard 5.7 liter Hemi engine was upgraded to 379 hp.
Key suspension include better brake feel, retuned shocks and bushings for better cornering and feel, better optional performance tires, and a revised steering wheel with on-wheel controls.A Challenger 392 model with white seats with blue stripes is set for early — and limited — production.
