2010 DODGE CHALLENGER SRT8
®
:
THE ULTIMATE MODERN AMERICAN MUSCLE COUPE
The 425 horsepower (317 kW) and 420 lb.-ft. of torque (569 N•m) in the 2010 Dodge
Challenger SRT8
®
are the result of SRT’s exclusive and proven 6.1-liter HEMI
®
V-8
engine, which represents the highest naturally aspirated specific-output V-8 engine
ever offered by Chrysler. Its 69.8 horsepower-per-liter rating exceeds even that of the
legendary 1966 “Street HEMI.”
New for the Dodge Challenger SRT8 in the 2010 model year is a limited-edition
Plum Crazy model. It will feature a unique Plum Crazy Pearl Coat exterior paint color with
a plum seat-stripe insert, along with a serialized dash plaque.
Exterior styling cues are unmistakably Dodge, with proportions that evoke a bold,
instantly recognizable vehicle that has a wide, stable stance on the road. A full-width
grille and fog lamps, reminiscent of the original Challenger, are married to the modern
“Dodge performance attitude.” The result is an aggressive face that is unmistakably a
muscle car. The hood—with a raised center, black stripes and functional dual scoops—
stays true to the Dodge Challenger heritage, as does the A-line and beltline.
The 2010 Dodge Challenger SRT8 is available with either a standard five-speed
automatic with Auto Stick or an available Tremec TR-6060 six-speed manual
transmission that was first offered on the 2008 Dodge Viper SRT10
®
. The result is a
Dodge muscle car packed with modern amenities and features any enthusiast will love.
Interior highlights include race-inspired leather seats with added bolstering and an
exclusive red accent stripe, exclusive stitched accents on the seats and steering wheel,
four-bomb gauges with tachometer and 180-mph speedometer in the center, and
an SRT-exclusive Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) with Performance Pages
that provide drivers instant feedback on 0-60 mph time, 60-0 mph braking,
G-forces in addition to one-eighth mile and quarter-mile times. The classic pistol-grip
shifter featured on the manual transmission is reminiscent of the original Dodge Challenger.
