Earlier today, Dodge introduced the 2019 incarnation of the Challenger and the changes on the performance side of the lineup are something that will keep aficionados busy for quite a while. We've already covered the official bits, Hellcat Redeye and all and we're now back on the topic to showcase the real-world might of the newcomer.
Thanks to the piece of footage at the bottom of the page, you'll be able to check out the voice of the 797-pony machine - while the clip simply delivers and engine startup and a bit of revving, this is enough to get our heart racing.
In fact, the TFL Car-delivered video, also lets us listen to the regular 19MY Hellcat, if we may call the 717 hp beast so, as well as to the 485 hp 392 V8 of the Scat Pack. So, if you're into muscle car comparos with a bit of frinedly fire, this is a stunt for you.
Speaking of the 392, you can now have the naturally aspirated motor's muscle sent to the road via meatier rubber, since the engine can also be mixed with the Widebody configuration that debuted on the 2018 Challenger Hellcat. And while the MY19 Hellcat keeps this option, the same goes for the Redeye.
In this respect, the Dodge Challenger is like the Porsche 911, with the range now allowing you to navigate though more configurations that you could explain to a non-car guy.
And while those who were in the market for a Dodge Demon and didn't get their hands on one of the 3,300 units (production ended recently) might find consolation in the Redeye, there's more in the stunt for us.
After all, once the colored-eye kitty hits drag strips, we'll get to see it and the Demon playing a friendly fire game - keep in mind that the 10.8s 1/4-mile time of the newcomer involves the street tires, so we can't wait to see what it can do on drag radials.

There's quite a bit of room in the garage that is this aficionado's heart, so factory-condition classics and widebody contraptions with turbos poking through the hood can peacefully coexist.
