The 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 accelerates from zero-60 mph within the excessive 4-second range; runs the quarter mile in mid-12-second vary with the automatic transmission (excessive 12-second range with the guide); goes from zero-one hundred-zero mph within the low 15s, reaches a high pace of 182 mph with the manual transmission (one hundred seventy five mph with the automatic) and stops from 60-zero mph in simply 117 feet.
Awe-inspiring powertrain
The 392-cubic inch (6.four-liter) HEMI® V-eight delivers 470 horsepower (351 kW) and 470 lb.-ft. (637 N•m) of torque. The torque band is extraordinarily flat permitting for strong standing begins and improved straight-line performance throughout the rpm range. An advanced energetic consumption manifold along with high-lift cam with phasing offers most low-end torque and excessive-end power while still delivering 23 miles per gallon on the highway with each the usual manual transmission or accessible automated transmission. Efficiency-tuned engine mounts enhance idle stability and journey control in any respect speedsStandard Fuel Saver Expertise (4 cylinder mode) in automatic transmission outfitted models permits the engine to operate economically on 4 cylinders or use the ability of all eight cylinders when needed. The EPA gas economic system miles per gallon (mpg) (City/Hwy) scores for the 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 are 14/23 for handbook or automated transmission models.

Both strategies give the driving force the flexibility to manually select specific gears on the transmission.
In "Drive," the transmission controller will robotically shift the vehicle. The aggressiveness of the shifting is outlined by the mode chosen - both "Normal" or "Sport." Fully adaptive digital control of all shifting makes the powertrain more responsive while minimizing harshness.
In "Manual," the shift method is outlined by the motive force choosing to make use of both paddle shift or Auto Stick. The "Sport" mode adds a hold function to the calibration in all gears, permitting the driver full control of the shifting schedule.
Outstanding trip, dealing with and capability
The adaptive damping suspension (ADS) system is new for 2012 and tuned particularly for the Dodge Challenger SRT8 392.
In "Auto" mode, a variety of on-street and driver inputs - such as car velocity, steering angle, steering pace, brake torque, throttle position and lateral/vertical accelerations - routinely tune the suspension for specific conditions. In "Sport" mode, the damping system rebound and compression is locked to the higher damping rate. Drivers can easily select between settings to shortly change the shock damping and harshness characteristics from "Auto" for everyday commuting to "Sport" for more spirited driving situations.
The ADS system on the Challenger SRT8 392 options the quickest flip-in and most nimble handling characteristics of any SRT product. In the "Sport" setting, the system supplies the best damping rates allowing the driving force to push the handling envelope like never before.
The efficiency SRT-tuned, totally-hydraulic steering system contains a heavy-responsibility pump mixed with a damped steering gear to give drivers extra direct response and on-center feel.
Sitting a half-inch decrease than non-SRT fashions, the 2012 Challenger SRT8 392 rides on both the usual 5-spoke, 20 x 9-inch fully forged aluminum wheels or obtainable seven-spoke, 20 x 9-inch light-weight cast aluminum wheels with satin black painted pockets.

The handling result's .90g functionality on the skid pad - essentially the most of any production Challenger and on par with a few of the world's finest-handling performance coupes.
Benchmark braking
The standard SRT efficiency brake package deal produces world-class stopping energy of 60 to zero mph in simply 117 toes from 14.2 inch (entrance) and 13.8 inch (rear) vented/slotted rotors with 4-piston Brembo mounted calipers painted red. The three-mode digital stability management system with knockback mitigation additionally includes 4-wheel ABS, all-pace traction control, digital brake-power distribution, Brake Assist and Hill-start Assist (HSA).
The Prepared Alert Braking system anticipates when the motive force shortly releases the accelerator pedal and may provoke an emergency brake cease, after which the digital stability control pump engages to set brake pads in opposition to rotors in an effort to decrease the time required for full brake application.
Improved brake cooling and fade performance comes courtesy of wind-tunnel designed brake cooling ducts that direct airflow to the vented rotors for consistent stopping power.
Aggressive and practical exterior
Exterior styling of the 2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 stays unmistakably Dodge, with proportions that continue to evoke a daring, immediately recognizable performance coupe that has a wide, secure stance on the road.

392's Storied History
The unique 392 HEMI engine was launched in the new 1957 mannequin 12 months Chrysler and Imperial products. It changed the 354 cubic-inch model of the unique HEMI launched in 1951.Compared with the 354 engine, the 392 was completely revised and improved, with larger valves and ports, a beefier block and crankshaft and improved bearings. In brief, the 392 HEMI, usually affectionately referred to simply because the "ninety two," was perfect for drag racing.
Various racers at that time immediately enhanced the performance of the most recent HEMI by bolting on six or eight carburetors, installing new camshafts, etc., and went racing.
Racing legend Don 'Massive Daddy" Garlits ran a 392 in his infamous Swamp Rat I dragster at file speeds of sooner than one hundred eighty mph on nitro with no supercharger. Garlits also used a 392 HEMI to formally break the 200-mph barrier when his Swamp Rat went 201.34 mph at Atco, N.J., in 1964.
However the 392's success went beyond the drag strip. It also set data on the Bonneville Salt Flats and in boat racing. Drag racing boats had been no totally different than their land-based counterparts in using the 392. Well-known HEMI engine builder Keith Black was better known on the water than on the land, until he teamed up with Tommy Greer and hired Don "The Snake" Prudhomme to dominate High Gasoline in California in the early Sixties using a 392 HEMI.
After 1958, the 392 HEMI was gone as a manufacturing engine, nevertheless it still stays a legend. Collectors at the moment are preserving many historic 392-powered race vehicles and hot rods and proudly displaying them on show automotive circuits.
In 2007, Mopar - Chrysler Group LLC's service, components and buyer-care model - helped rejoice the 50th anniversary of the unique 392 by launching a contemporary, crate engine model of the 392 HEMI.
