Abstract:  
“Roadshow by CNET” has named the highperformance drivetrain in the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon as the winner of the 2018 Roadshow Shift Award in the Driveline Technology of the Year category. Designed, engineered and built for absolute drag strip domination, the limited-production 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon is powered by a 840-horsepower, supercharged 6.2-liter HEMI® Demon V-8 engine, making it the most powerful muscle car ever and the world’s fastest quarter-mile production car with an elapsed time of 9.65 seconds at 140 miles per hour, as certified by National Hot Rod Association. To make all that horsepower and immense 770 pounds-feet of torque transfer to the pavement, Dodge//SRT engineers used a variety of proven drag racing strategies and several technology-firsts to build the first-ever production car to produce a front-wheel lift as certified by Guinness World Records.
