Dodge Super8 Hemi Concept

A retro-American HEMI sedan that helped revive the HEMI name

Shown at Detroit in 2001, the Super8 Hemi was a bold five-seat sedan blending retro Americana with a truck-like stance, wraparound windshield and reverse-swept A-pillars on 22-inch wheels. Its 5.7 L HEMI V8 made 353 hp and 395 lb-ft through a four-speed AutoStick automatic, helping herald the HEMI's production return and the styling direction of the later Chrysler 300.
