Dodge Demon vs Lamborghini Aventador | Top Gear: Series 25

that might be the most addictive throttle pedal I have ever experienced and as you'd expect from a car that's limited to 168 miles per hour out on the road the demon does feel pretty fast [Music] at supercar fast hypercar fast I don't know you know this isn't some stripped-down sports car this is a big comfy Cruiser two metric tons of big comfy Cruiser to be precise there's no hybrid energy recovery gizmos it's just a big motor and there's no supercar spec double clutch gearbox it's just a big automatic to be honest it's kind of just a Dodge and I gotta say I've driven quite a few dodges over the years and they're not my favorite the interiors are very plastic and cheap feeling and while it's no a supercar on the inside it doesn't corner like one either you tried to go around this corner in the demon as fast as you go around this corner of the lot for but you wouldn't go around that corner the road like this the demon just would not see which way a supercar with hands me to say it but it's true so there you go question answer for eighty four thousand nine hundred and ninety five dollars you can't buy a car that'll outrun anything else on the planet however four eighty four thousand nine hundred ninety six dollars you might just be able to [Music] because when you buy a demon dodge will also give you the option to spend $1 more on a creative stuff you get tools skinny front tires a high flow air filter a new ECU loads of cool stop because dodge didn't build the demon to go quick on a windy Alpine pass or a tight street circuit no no the demon was made to do one thing to tear up the drag strip a quarter mile at a time bolt all those crate parts on feeded some decent fuel and it'll give you 840 horsepower this is the most powerful v8 production car in history dodge says this car will run the standing quarter mile in nine point six five seconds which if you know your drag racing you'll know is really really fast but if you don't know your drag racing here's how it works first you need to warm the tires even as a function called line-lock brakes to front wheels so you can spin up the rear oh they're done and once you've warmed the tyres you're ready to go well almost okay so to launch this thing it's pretty easy left foot on the brake hold in both these paddles add some revs release one paddle foot off the brake release the other panel as you bury the throttle see easy [Music] that won't get old ever you literally could not fall off a cliff faster than that oh hell I'm doing that again and you can because unlike most cars with launch control where you do a couple of full bore starts and then it has to go lie down for a bit and making the demon dodge had one do over 5,000 launches without a single glitch that is addictive okay now that I'm warmed up how about a little race that is a Lamborghini Aventador four-wheel-drive v12 engine four times the price of the demon let's do this roasted that Lambo that is big American balls baby big fat American ice cubes is that a Lamborghini way back there I think it is [Music] when you hook everything up right you know fastest car does 0 to 60 2.3 seconds this is the fastest accelerating Road car in history so there you go if you're the kind of person who wants to live life a quarter mile at a time you don't want a couple hundred grand supercar you want a demon

God that production value is always so so clean

Man, LeBlanc was a great pick post trio

The best thing about clarkson and the guys is they romanticized the cars, I think Matt did a great job doing the same

That shot of the Demon just rolling out of the smoke...

Man, there ain't nothin' like the whine of a supercharger.

I like Matt but I don't understand why they keep scripting his lines like Clarkson. just listen how he delivers every line, even though he's good at it, to me, it seems like he was reading all along

I like that they used the same oven timer joke from the 911R review when he did the burnout.

The Demon is so fast it can smoked a 1000bhp HPE Exorcist Camaro despite the 160bhp difference. That's just simply insane!
