Under the hood, the Demon 170 boasts a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine, which is the same powerplant that was found in the previous generation Demon. However, Dodge has made some significant upgrades to the engine to achieve this new level of performance. The most notable change is the larger supercharger, which has been upgraded from 2.7 liters to 3.0 liters. This allows for more boost pressure, resulting in the increased horsepower and torque figures.

But it's not just the engine that sets the Demon 170 apart from its competitors. Dodge has also made some changes to the car's suspension and braking systems to handle all that power. The Demon 170 features adjustable Bilstein dampers, which allow drivers to fine-tune the suspension for maximum performance. The brakes have also been upgraded, with massive six-piston Brembo calipers up front and four-piston calipers in the rear.

Of course, the Demon 170 is not just about raw performance numbers. Dodge has also included a host of features to make this car more enjoyable to drive. For starters, there's the new Performance Pages Plus system, which provides real-time performance data and allows drivers to customize various settings, such as suspension stiffness and shift points. There's also a new Launch Control system, which helps drivers get off the line quickly and smoothly.

On the outside, the Demon 170 looks just as menacing as its name suggests. The car features a unique front fascia with an aggressive grille and large air intakes to help cool the engine. There's also a massive hood scoop, which is necessary to feed air to the supercharger. The car sits on massive 18-inch wheels wrapped in sticky drag radials, and there's even an option for lightweight carbon fiber wheels.
