Dodge leans into climate change with Challenger that drinks a tank of gas in 11 minutes

Over the last decade, electric vehicles have gone from the butt of a bad joke to some of the highest-performance production cars that money can buy. But the old guard isn’t going to go out without a bang, or in the case of Fiat Chrysler’s latest vehicle, an enormous gas bill.

The company unveiled a a new special edition of the classic Dodge Challenger this week, and it’s the most American of American muscle cars. The 2019 Challenger SRT Hellcat Redeye comes with a supercharged Hemi Demon 6.2-liter V-8 that produces 797 horsepower, 707-pound-feet of torque, and a noise that sounds eerily like a Bruce Springsteen guitar solo.
