Following a thirty day period of movies and numerous months of speculation, we are at the end of Dodge’s teaser campaign. That will make this the very last Past Connect with teaser for the closing Last Simply call Dodge Challenger, which is a very Spaceballs way to mainly say the finale is here. So let us get on with it.
For all those keeping score, this is the sixth teaser in the present marketing campaign (counting the initial announcement) and the seventh clue to this closing model. It options the creepy monster leprechaun from the second teaser leaping out of an plane, skydiving to Las Vegas wherever the major reveal will eventually just take place. En route, we see him pause momentarily at 140 mph right before jetting ahead with remarkable haste, breaking the sound barrier in the course of action. For the record, that is close to 755 mph at Las Vegas, which has an elevation of 2,000 feet over sea stage.
Obviously, this Challenger to conclusion all Challengers would not go 700 mph, but 140 mph is clearly a clue. Or somewhat, likely a lot quicker than 140 mph is the clue, but with 215 mph referenced in a former teaser, of course the new Challenger goes more rapidly than 140. Could that be how fast the new Challenger goes in the quarter-mile? Probably, but once more, the takeaway just isn’t the speed. It is going more quickly than that velocity. And we believe we have the solution.
Soar back again a handful of yrs to the debut of the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon, heralded then as the fastest-accelerating production automobile in the earth. Dodge officially listed the Demon’s quarter-mile time at 9.65 seconds. And its pace at the finish of that rug? 140 mph on the dot, and no, we don’t imagine for one second that’s a coincidence. Our get on this teaser is that the new Challenger is a lot quicker than the Demon, whole halt.

Primarily based on the other teasers, that shouldn’t arrive as a surprise. To summarize, the initial teaser showed a spooky demon-like experience with red eyes, prompting us to speculate the new motor vehicle would be a Challenger Demon Redeye. The 2nd teaser noticed that spooky demon morph into a monster leprechaun soon after dosing up with gold liquid, which could point out it runs on E85 fuel. Teasers 3 and four tossed figures into the blend, suggesting its motor has considerably more boost than a standard hellcat and that it can operate a sub-9-second quarter-mile time. As these, the new teaser lines up with the many others in a neat style.
The fifth teaser confirmed a V8 jackhammer pounding golden pellets with 2,538 psi of … a little something. Some have claimed it is a different reference to boost strain or cylinder pressure, but it arguably stays the strangest of the bunch. And then there’s the initial teaser heading all the way back again to August 2022, when Dodge announced its Past Call lineup. Which is where by we saw a Challenger-shaped vehicle beneath a go over, adorned with a license plate declaring 1Rapid29.
Mercifully, the wait is nearly about. Dodge will expose its ultimate Last Contact design on March 20 in a large event at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. It will mark the conclusion of Dodge’s V8 muscle car for the two the Charger and Challenger, but as the teasers plainly recommend, it truly is not going away quietly.
