Information pertaining to the 2011 Challenger has come from a reliable source. The SRT8 will shed the 6.1L HEMI for a larger, more powerful but more fuel efficient 6.4L HEMI with anywhere from 475-525 horsepower. The car will also enlist a roof mounted fin-style antenna, a newer more attractive steering wheel and door handles to coincide with the new passive entry feature, that will allow you to enter the locked car as long as you have the key fob in your pocket.
As of now, it looks like Chrysler will have a nice line-up for the 2010 auto show season, as this engine will be powering the newly designed 2011 Chrysler 300 SRT8 and Dodge Charger SRT8 as well as the Challenger.
We will keep you updated as more information trickles in.

Executives did say that the challenger would get a boost for the 2011 MY so I take it the 6.4 was what they were talking about
any news if jeep will build an srt-8 model for the redesign grand cherokee..i dont want to buy the old style if the new style will be built..thanks
The SRT engineers were working on a new SRT8 vehicle 6 months ago, they just didn’t say which one, so I don’t know for sure. I hope they do, and if so, it’ll have more power with the 6.4L HEMI that is more fuel efficient than the current 6.1L.
It is very true that the 2011 challenger is getting the 6.4L. My brother works for the plant and the confirmed it for sure last Friday. The new gas ratings for vehicles will not start until 2015. So now is the the time for horsepower wars we have five good years so enjoy.
PLEASE ASK YOUR BROTHER IF THE 2011 CHALLEGER SRT8 WITH THE 6.4L HEMI WILL BE AVAILABLE WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
TO JEFFREY BROOME: PLEASE ASK YOUR BROTHER IF THE 2011 DODGE CHALLENGER SRT8 WITH THE 6.4 HEMI WILL BE AVAILABLE WITH (1) AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND (2) IN B5 BLUE
THANK YOU .
Will They be offering any additional color options………..Sublime Green………Yellow …….anyone?
Tom: Yellow is available NOW. Leslie, Automatic will be available, not so sure about B5.
I just bought a 2010 SRT 8 6.1 Challenger. The bottom line question in my mind is, will the body style be changed or just the power output? Will the body style change drastically?
They say the 2011 will now get a facelift, it has not been confimed but the insiders have hinted towards it.
sucks to be all of you who bought the shitty older models!
Does anyone know the release date of the 2011 challenger or the time frame?????
when will the 2011 challengers be available for purchase?
If your brother is connected with chrysler, please tell him we dont really need a lot more motor. the engine combo’s it has are already potent, lighten this turd 500 pounds and fix the handling and it will be competitive. I waited and waited, drooling over challenger news about release dates for ever. This was what they decided to deliver, a 4200 pouind turd with great looks. EPIC fail, the mustang, some 800 pounds lighter and 60 Horse power less kills this car in every preformance category. I love dodges, have owned many, make this right for gods sake so we can be proud dodge owners again while we kick everyones ass.
The Camaro is faster but come on guys the Challenger is the only true retro with true muscle car looks. The Camaro looks nothing like the originals and is clearly just a modern looking car that belongs in a Transformers movie. Thanks Dodge for bringing back the real Muscle car.
Timeframe of release anyone????????
November of this year it will begin production ecole.
Please don’t make this anything like a run of the mill mustang or throw away camaro. This car is unique and I for one would like to keep that way. Please don’t make it a cheap pony car.
I played with an SS camaro today and it was not a challenge-no pun intended.
Oh- please make the 6.4 dependable or keep it until 2012.
Thanks Jesse!!! I will defenitly have my money ready for nov!!! I CANT WAIT JESSE!!!!
