Chrysler has had a turbulent year, but they seem to have landed on their feet. Besides now being part-owned by Fiat, they have begun rolling out a slew of new products. Thee 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee has gotten a lot of praise, and the new Dodge Charger looks sharp.
Then there is the 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 Hemi. The top-end Challenger's 6.1 liter engine has been bored out to 6.4 liters. Power jumped from 425 horsepower to a spine-crushing 470 horsepower and 470 ft-lbs of torque. National Speed Inc. strapped one of these monsters to a dyno to see if the numbers back up Chrysler’s claim.
