The teaser campaign for the final Dodge Challenger Last Call special edition is entering the homestretch with the release of a new video known as “HEMI Vice.”
The clip features a familiar leprechaun, who is using a jackhammer on amber balls. There’s no word on what the ballbuster is up too, but the jackhammer features HEMI-power as well as a digital display reading “2538 PSI.”
It’s not immediately clear what that number means, but it’s possible the amber balls represent fuel. That’s just a guess, but Dodge is going electric and if HEMI engines have a vice, it’s gasoline.

While there are more questions than answers, the video hints at the car’s “ability to harness and unleash mind-boggling horsepower.” Dodge added the special edition will “possess [the] power to demolish drag strips.”
Previous teasers have suggested the car could run the quarter mile in 8.9996 seconds and have a top speed of 215 mph (346 km/h). Of course, that’s not official and we’re still not sure what the previous 1582 number is supposed to mean.
All that being said, the special edition is expected to blow the old Challenger SRT Demon out of the water. That won’t be an easy task as the car had a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 developing up to 840 hp (626 kW / 851 PS) and 770 lb-ft (1,042 Nm) of torque. This enabled the model to rocket from 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) in 2.3 seconds and run the quarter mile in 9.65 seconds at 140 mph (225 km/h).
Dodge will release the final teaser video on March 17th, which is St. Patrick’s Day. That video could be interesting given the leprechaun angle, but the car will debut on March 20th.
