It seems that the Dodge Viper He does not want to be forgotten so fast and he is still in the battle to continue in the market.

The Dodge Viper it’s a car super sports manufactured by the division Dodge of the group FCA. Production of the two-seat sports car began at the New Mack Assembly in 1991 and then moved to Conner Avenue Assembly in Detroit, Michigan, in October 1995.

Sergio Marchionne, CEO of the FCA group, confirmed the disappearance of this supercar in 2017, mainly due to its low level of sales and due to the obligation to install airbags curtain on all models from that year.

In August 2017, the last unit that left the Conner Avenue assembly plant in Detroit was produced, where the powerful car had been built since 1995.

Although this supercar stopped being produced in 2017, some five new Dodge Vipers have somehow managed to be sold in 2019. How?

The five Vipers were registered as “new sales” by Dodge dealers, however, the models are still 2017, and despite not being the year, the vehicles are new, as they have never left the dealership.

The 2017 Dodge Viper It went on sale with a 8.4-liter V10 engine that produces the staggering 645 horsepower (hp) and 600 pound-feet of torque. It has a rear-wheel drive that works with a six-speed manual transmission with no automatic transmission option.

The fact that the Vipers are still sold in 2019 suggests that distributors may have been keeping them so that over the years their price increased.
