The creator explains and demonstrates a hidden launch control feature on a 7th generation Dodge Charger SRT8. He introduces the feature, clarifies the specific engine type, and contrasts it with newer models. He then provides a step-by-step tutorial on how to activate it using the traction control button, shows the dashboard confirmation, and demonstrates how to perform the launch by using both the brake and gas pedals, culminating in a clip of the car accelerating.

Did you know the 7th Gen 2013-2014 Dodge Charger SRT8 came with launch control?
Unlike the 2015-2023 Chargers, you won鈥檛 find it in the SRT performance pages. Instead, Dodge hid the activation behind the traction control button.
With a couple quick presses, you can launch the 6.4L HEMI 392 and put all 470 horsepower to work. Just don鈥檛 expect those factory 245s to hook well. 馃槀

The seventh gen Dodge Charger SRT eight has a hidden launch control feature that a lot of people don't know about. And today I'm gonna show you guys exactly how to use it. That's right. I'm gonna show you guys how to take advantage of all 470 horsepower from this 6.4 liter three ninety two Hemi V eight. And yes, I said 6.4 better, not 6.1. So unlike the 2015 to twenty twenty three chargers, you are not gonna find the launch control in the SRT performance pages. You can look through the menus all day. You're not gonna find it there. So here's how you actually activate it. First, put the car in drive and then find your traction control better. But don't just hit it once, hit it twice. And just like that, launch control is armed. But say you change your mind for whatever reason and you don't wanna gap the Mustang sitting next to you at a stoplight, you can hit the button again and it will say launch control aborted. But obviously, we're not doing that. So then you'll quickly plant your left foot on the brake and your right foot on the gas. And instead of over revving, the car will automatically hold engine RPMs at around 1,800. And from there, you'll let off the brake and let all 470 bad eagles rip. Now, as you can see, you still will get some wheel spin, especially on these pizza cutter two forty fives, But for a big, torquey three ninety two Hemi powered sedan, it can honestly give you a pretty decent launch. But thank you all for watching and follow for more.
