GENEVA — Bound for Geneva is the Dodge Demon roadster concept, outfitted with the same 2.4-liter World Engine found in the 2007 Dodge Caliber (http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/ViewModelDetail/make=Dodge/model=Caliber). Should the Demon make it to production, it's likely to carry a more reasonable price tag than the $84,000 Dodge Viper (http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/ViewModelDetail/make=Dodge/model=Viper).
Dodge describes the Demon as "an attainable dream car." It is not giving away any plans for production, but such a vehicle would slot nicely into the Dodge lineup, especially next to its V10 big brother, the Viper. And it wouldn't be saddled with the $3,000 gas-guzzler tax that bedevils the brand's flagship roadster. The Demon's four-cylinder engine produces 172 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 165 pound-feet of torque at 4,400 rpm. It is linked to a six-speed manual transmission.
The car is decked out in Bright Amber Pearl paint, with a Carbon Black cabin. Dodge says it rides on a 95.6-inch wheelbase with a 51.8-inch overall height and a 156.5-inch overall length. Estimated curb weight is 2,600 pounds.
Exterior styling cues include the signature Dodge crosshair grille, projector headlamps, a hood that is hinged at the front and 19-inch brushed aluminum wheels. Dodge designers say they were inspired by "timeless British sports cars" when it came to creating the fairly simple cabin with its three-spoke steering wheel and four-gauge cluster. The floor console is not attached to the instrument panel and is dominated by a silver-and-black manual shift knob. The black seats are topstitched with silver thread.
The Demon makes its formal debut on March 6.
What this means to you: The Demon concept will undoubtedly be one of the showstoppers at Geneva as Dodge searches for ways to round out its product portfolio.
