Dodge Viper 2013-2017 Specifications

The 2013-2017 Dodge Viper is equipped with a single engine option: an 8.4-liter V10 engine. This engine produces 640 horsepower and 600 lb-ft of torque, offering exceptional performance across all trims. There are no alternate engine options available for this model.

The Dodge Viper comes exclusively with a 6-speed manual transmission, emphasizing its focus on driver engagement and performance. The transmission features a short-throw shifter and precise gear ratios optimized for high-speed driving.

Standard safety features include dual front airbags, electronic stability control, traction control, and anti-lock brakes. Optional features include a tire pressure monitoring system and a rearview camera. The Viper’s lightweight construction and advanced chassis design also contribute to its safety performance.

The Dodge Viper achieves an EPA-estimated 12 mpg in the city and 19 mpg on the highway. While this is lower than some competitors like the Chevrolet Corvette, it is comparable to other high-performance sports cars in its class, such as the Porsche 911 GT3.

Recommended maintenance includes an oil change every 6,000 miles or 6 months, tire rotation every 7,500 miles, and a comprehensive inspection every 15,000 miles. Brake fluid should be replaced every 30,000 miles, and the coolant system should be flushed every 100,000 miles.

Standard features include a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, leather upholstery, dual-zone climate control, and a premium audio system. Optional features include a carbon fiber exterior package, upgraded Brembo brakes, and a Track Package with performance-tuned suspension and aerodynamic enhancements.

The Dodge Viper offers limited cargo space with 8.7 cubic feet of storage behind the seats. Passenger space is also minimal, with a two-seat configuration and snug interior dimensions. Competitors like the Chevrolet Corvette offer slightly more cargo space and similar passenger accommodations.

The Dodge Viper is not designed for towing or heavy payloads. Its focus is on high-performance driving, and it does not come equipped with towing features or a manufacturer-stated payload capacity.
