Dodge launches a Demon on the EU…….

Category: Concept Car

The Dodge Demon is set to be released at Geneva. If you do not already know DCX is trying to get excitment built up in Europe before they officially release the Dodge brand there. This vehicle I can only guess is going to go head to head with the Mazda MX-5, and Saturn Sky/Pontiac Solstice. I am sure it will use one of DCX’s global shit box engines, that I had the displeasure of driving in the Dodge Calliber about a month back. ( Chrysler’s 2.4-liter world engine, producing 172 hp and 165 lb-ft ) not world class by any ones standard. I can only assume with this lathargic choice of engines, that Dodge will continue with it’s lets try and sell everything for under $20K theory. Hey if it works great for you Dodge. Now lets get to design.

I will only comment on my over all impression I will let you be the design critic. The car is well proportioned, and detailed, surfaces are fresh, especially over the rear wheel. ( even though it is very Ford Cobra concept crom 2 years back ….swipe, make it Dodge ) Overall it is a nice vehicle, but I did not say to my self, ( holdshit I need this in my driveway) like I would with a Viper or say the Firepower from a few years back. Many details were copied from the Firepower, but not just there. Good design it will sell, just will not be in my garage.
