The fourth-generation Dodge Viper stays true to the formula: a huge V10 up front, rear-wheel drive and a manual gearbox, offered as an open Roadster or a fixed-roof Coupe.
The Dodge Viper engine is a naturally aspirated 8.4-litre V10 running on gasoline, as seen in the 8.4 MT Roadster. This powertrain sends its torque rearward through a manual transmission, so the rear-wheel-drive setup rewards deliberate throttle work rather than electronic assistance.
