Description[]
The Dodge Super8 HEMI is a retro-styled luxury concept vehicle produced by the Dodge division of DaimlerChrysler (now Stellantis North America) and unveiled at the 2001 North American International Auto Show. Designed by Rob McMahon and Kevin Verdun, the Super8 HEMI was described as the embodiment of "culture and essence of American optimism" and shows Dodge's ability "to embrace theur love for the sedan and meld it with invigorating execution and technological advancement". It is powered by a 5.7L HEMI V8 with hemispherical combustion chambers and dual spark plugs per cylinder, mated to a 4-speed AutoStick automated manual; the engine produces 353 horsepower, with the car capable of 154 mph (248 km/h). The car most notably featured a highly advanced InfoTronic infotainment system, with a computerized LCD interface capable of Internet connectivity and multiple screens around the car. The car was later put on display at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum, but after the museum closed it is not clear where the car is now located.
The Dodge Super 8 Hemi is one of only two Drop Tops vehicles with a plastic base.
