The last Dodge Challenger to roll off the assembly line belongs to the high-performance SRT Demon 170 edition.
According to Automotive News Canada, production of the Dodge Challenger came to an end on December 22 at the Brampton assembly plant in Canada, marking the end of a 15-year run for the muscle car. All engineers and mechanics at the Brampton plant gathered at the assembly line L to witness the moment the last Dodge Challenger rolled off.
The last Dodge Challenger to roll off the assembly line belongs to the high-performance SRT Demon 170 edition. The car is finished in Pitch Black exterior paint with gold accents on some details such as the front bumper and wheels.
This is the most powerful version of the Dodge Challenger, equipped with a supercharged 6.2L V8 engine, producing a maximum power of 1,039 horsepower and a torque of 1,280 Nm when using E85 fuel. The Challenger SRT Demon 170 can accelerate from 0 to 97 km/h in just 1.66 seconds. On the drag strip, this car completes the quarter-mile in 8.91 seconds with a top speed of 243.28 km/h.
According to designer Ralph Gilles, while the exterior design remained largely unchanged over the years, the technology and interior of the Challenger have evolved significantly. For example, the Challenger is one of the first cars to have a touch screen infotainment system. The Dodge Challenger is the last car to be equipped with the Chrysler LX platform, which has been in use since 2004.
According to Carscoops, the Challenger has been outselling its rivals, the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro. Even during the economic downturn, the Dodge Challenger has maintained impressive sales.
In August 2022, Stellantis – the parent company of Dodge – announced the discontinuation of models that made the brand’s name. The reason is the increasingly strict emission standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Dodge also introduced the “Last Call” product line as a final tribute to its customers.
After the last Dodge Challenger rolled off the assembly line, the Brampton plant will undergo a technology transition to produce electric vehicles in the future.
