2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 Review by Motor Trend

Go big home or go home!

Nothing this year captures that mentality more than the 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392. To prove it, the gearheads at Motor Trend got behind the wheel of the heavy-duty beefed up beast, and what did they find? Well, the rumors are true. Not only does the Challenger look good out on the road, but there is also plenty of power under the hood. Last year, Motor Trend testers hit the track comparing the 2010 Challenger to its nemesis, the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS. So who came out on top for track dominance? That’s right, the Challenger.



This year’s model takes it to the next level, boasting a 6.4 Hemi under-hood and engine displacement at 392 cubic inches on the dot. And guess what Motor Trend’s testers had to say about all this? Well, after the Challenger delivered a 13.0-second flat quarter-mile at 111.3 miles-per-hour and went from 0-60 in 4.6-seconds, their final synopsis was: “…it’s fast, real fast.”

While we already knew that, we certainly do appreciate the nod of approval. Here’s to taking something good and making it better.
