Dodge celebrates 50 years of the winged Daytona with 501 special edition Chargers
Quote:
To make the special edition a bit more special, the team at Chrysler took the most powerful and fastest mass-produced sedan in the world and made it even faster and more powerful. Chrysler's engineers have recalibrated the Hellcat's supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V-8 to produce a bit more power, 717 hp, the same as the Hellcat Challenger and. That’s up 10 horses compared to the 707 in most other applications. The automatic transmission has also been recalibrated to shift at engine speeds as high as 6100 rpm, to better use the extra power.
In addition to the extra thrust, the new Widebody Daytona gets 20x11-inch “Warp Speed” alloy wheels finished in Satin Carbon and low-profile Pirelli 303/35ZR20 all-season performance tires (high-performance summer tires are optional), along with black Brembo brake calipers with six pistons up front and four in the back, working on vented rotors.
