Meet the 2026 Dodge Charger Scat Pack, a gas-powered beast in a world of EVs. Priced at $54,995 starting MSRP, this is the most powerful car you can buy for under $55,000, with 550 horsepower and 531 lb-ft. of torque.
This race pit two electric American muscle cars head-to-head in a U-drag race—where they speed down a quarter-mile, do a U-turn, and rush back to the start. It checks how fast they go, how well they stop, and how they handle turns, all in one go. The Ford Mustang Mach-E GT Performance has 480 horsepower and 700 lb-ft of torque, while the Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack, with its “Powershot” mode on, pumps out 670 horsepower and 630 lb-ft of torque.
It’s no Viper Defender, but this custom rally Dodge Viper by Matt Brown, also known as SuperFastMatt, can be used for much more than just a television show. This vehicle started out as a normal first-generation (1991-1995) Dodge Viper, before its suspension was completely revamped.
Automotive engineer Matt Brown started his custom off-road Dodge Viper build over a year ago, and it has finally hit the road. The initial goal was to give it a 12-inch lift and replace the Viper’s independent rear suspension with an off-road-ready solid axle from either a Ford Bronco or a Jeep, but he ended up with a bespoke creation.
The 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 is touted as the world’s most powerful production muscle car, but is it faster than a Tesla Model S Plaid? DragTimes wanted to find out, so they took both vehicles to the drag strip and pit them against each other in a 1/4 mil drag racing showdown.
It may not have 3,300 horsepower, but this ultra rare Viper Defender is reportedly just one of fourteen vehicles made for the 1994 Viper TV series about a special US task force set up to fight crime in the fictional Metro City. Based on a stretched 1993 Dodge Viper RT/10 chassis, this show car was designed by Chrysler, powered by a 360ci Chrysler 5.9L small-block V8 making between 230 hp – 250 hp, mated to a 727 automatic transmission sending power to the rear wheels.
Sleek and incredibly fast, the 2023 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon 170 is touted as the world’s most powerful muscle car, or at least from the factory. Power comes from a supercharged 6.2L HEMI V8 engine making 1,025 hp and 945 lb-ft of torque on E85 ethanol, mated to a TorqueFlite 8HP90 eight-speed automatic transmission, enabling it to accelerate from 0-60 mph in a mere 1.66 seconds.
It’s no Rolls-Royce Britannia, but the Ram 1500 Revolution battery-electric vehicle (BEV) concept does tease the future of trucks. Powered by two electric drive modules (EDMs), the concept features all-wheel-drive capability and can add up to 100-miles of range in approximately 10 minutes with 800-volt DC fast charging at up to 350 kW.

If the US Army modded a Dodge Viper, it probably wouldn’t look like this one listed for sale at J’S Auto in Hong Kong. Why is it so wide in the rear? It has been given a dually setup, which means that there are two rear wheels on either side, typically found on pickup trucks for heavy-duty performance purposes.
