Daimler Chrysler: Dodge Demon
The Dodge Demon concept, a sharp-looking roadster aimed at the budget priced open air vehicle market inhabited by the Mazda MX-5 and GM's Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky combo, will hit the auto show stands for the first time at the 77th Geneva Motor Show next month.
<br><br>
Demon's name is lifted from a tarted-up Dodge Dart back in the 1970s. Called a "roadster with an attitude" by the automaker, the vehicle is powered by Chrysler's 2.4-liter world engine found in several of its U.S. offerings which kicks out 172 hp and 165 lb-ft of torque, mated to a six-speed manual gearbox. Top speed is an estimated 130 mph.
The vehicle is underpinned by an all-new platform, according to the automaker, and could take the Caliber SRT-4's 300-horse turbo version of the 2.4-liter global engine if it reaches production in order to take on the 260 horespower, turbo-powered GXP Solstice/Sky Redline.
