BREAKING: Next-Gen Viper Coming in Late 2012, Will Have Stability Control
Full Article
Full Article
Dodge has confirmed that the next-generation Viper will be revealed in late 2012?we expect that?ll make it a 2013 model?and that it will pack stability control. We should mention that stability control is required by federal law for all 2013-model-year cars, and that law is the reason many doubted the brutal and traditionally technology-shy Viper would make it to a third generation.
This ought to bring some healthy controversy. The first two generations of Viper didn?t offer such computerology, giving it the reputation of being the automotive purist?s monster. This view isn?t unanimously held by folks who have had the schvitzy-palmed experience of wheeling a Viper, which is a rolling Yakov Smirnoff joke for some: ?In 600-hp Viper, car drives you!? In reality, though, the Viper can be easier to drive quickly than its reputation suggests.
We?ve got a full rundown of what we expect from the next-gen Viper here, but expect between 600 and 700 hp. Contribute to your savings account and life-insurance policy accordingly.
