Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 Dominates Tesla Model S Plaid in Epic Drag Races - ICE Fans Rejoice!

Herman Young, also known as Demonology, recently raced his Challenger SRT Demon 170 against the Tesla Model S Plaid at the Texas Motorplex. The blue muscle car left the Plaid far behind not just once or twice but three times over the eighth-mile stretch.

Young's fastest time was an impressive 5.937 seconds at 116.79 mph, showcasing the Demon 170's power. This model, with its force-fed V8 engine producing a whopping 1,025 horsepower and 945 lb-ft of torque, is a quarter-mile beast.

Despite the Model S Plaid's 1,020 hp and 1,050 lb-ft of torque, the Demon 170's performance and affordability at $89,990 make it a standout in the world of muscle cars. With Dodge unveiling the 2024 Charger as the Demon 170's successor, electric alternatives like the Charger Daytona Scat Pack offer intriguing options for car enthusiasts.

The Charger SIXPACK with a 3.0L twin-turbo I6 engine scheduled for early 2025 is set to cater to V8 loyalists with impressive power and all-wheel-drive capabilities. Although the industry may be shifting towards electric vehicles, models like the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 continue to impress with their raw power and performance.
