Notice something a little lopsided about the Demon 170? That’s right: It’s got the Widebody flares on the rear, but not on the front. Dodge says leaving the front flares off saves 17 pounds.

Dodge updated the Demon logo with — we’re not kidding — a “170 neck tattoo” referencing the alcohol proof of E85. The little guy also gets yellow eyes in tribute to the corn that gives American gasoline its ethanol content. He’s called the Corn Demon.
