Speaking of beefed-up muscle cars, Dodge showed off the Challenger SRT Demon 170, its ridiculously powerful farewell to the current Challenger model.

The SRT Demon 170 costs a whopping $96,666 and makes more than 1,000 horsepower, according to the brand.
The 3,000-unit limited edition model comes as Dodge looks to electrify its lineup.

The sleek coupe retains all the drama of Dodge’s snarling gas cars.

It has a multi-speed transmission (very unusual for an EV), a loud fake exhaust, and overall performance that beats Dodge’s famed SRT Hellcat V8 engine.
Kia has debuted the US version of the EV9, a delightfully massive electric SUV that hits the streets later in 2023.

Kia has yet to announce pricing.
Lexus was a bit late to the EV game, but it has arrived with the RZ450e.

We save the best—or at least the most ambitious—for last.
It’s Lamborghini’s Huracan Sterrato, which the brand calls “the first all-terrain super sports car.” It is 1.7 inches taller than a regular Huracan.
