This week in cars

Dodge keeps teasing SRT Demon 

As if the 707-horsepower Challenger SRT Hellcat wasn’t enough, Dodge has been hard at work refining an even more powerful version of its aging two-door muscle car: the SRT Demon. By now, we know the SRT Demon will be faster than the Hellcat (at least in a straight line), have massive tires and a wider body … oh, and the passenger seats are optional. Dodge has been teasing the upcoming car with short video ads to build hype for a few weeks now – definitely excited to hear when the car will be fully revealed.

 

Lexus LC500

Lexus and parent company Toyota have been adding a bit of spice to their lineup. Lexus’ latest, the LC500 coupe, does not disappoint. The car’s aesthetics are a fresh take on the company’s angular yet fluid design language, taking hints from the famed LFA supercar, and the cabin has plenty of space for at least two people up front (the seat-like shapes in the back might be good for small children). A big luxury grand tourer with V8 power? Sign me up. Expect the LC500 and the LC500h hybrid coupes to go on sale in early 2018.

 

Geneva Motor Show

Auto shows are important events for car manufacturers, and March brings one of the biggest shows of the year. The Geneva Motor Show, taking place March 9 through the 19, will see plenty of manufacturers showing off new and updated models amongst its current offerings and classic vehicles. This year, expect to see a revival of Alpine with its reveal of their new A120 sports car, the new Ferrari 812 Superfast, Mitsubishi’s upcoming Eclipse crossover and other automotive goodies. Anyone want to spot me a ticket to Switzerland?
