What is the top speed of the Dodge Tomahawk?

[DeMaria]

Dodge Tomahawk has a top speed of 676 km/h. The relevant introduction of the Dodge Tomahawk is as follows: Introduction to the Dodge Tomahawk: The "Dodge Tomahawk" quad bike launched by the American Chrysler Corporation. This vehicle participated in the 2003 North American International Auto Show in Detroit. The vehicle weighs 680 kg, is over 2.5 meters long, approximately 70 cm wide, and 1 meter tall; equipped with a 10-cylinder Viper V-10 engine with a total displacement of 8300cc and a power of 500 horsepower; fuel tank capacity is 14.8 liters. Theoretically, it can accelerate to 96.5 km/h in 2.5 seconds, with a maximum speed of 643.6 km/h. Appearance of the Dodge Tomahawk: This is a king-level vehicle, featuring an extremely powerful engine—an 8.3-liter V10 engine with 500hp (373kW). It has two wheels at the front and rear, which can automatically adjust the angle between the two wheels based on the tilt angle of the vehicle. The rider must lean forward to ride, and it only takes 2.5 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h.

I've always been fascinated by super-speed motorcycles. The Dodge Tomahawk, this beast, is officially claimed to reach a staggering 676 km/h, faster than the takeoff speed of many commercial airliners. Its heart is an 8.3-liter V10 engine, packing a full 500 horsepower, with four wheels resembling a crouching mechanical spider. But honestly, these figures were measured on a special test track with the body fixed by steel tubes—no one dares to drive it like that on real roads. In 2003, a guy named Dave hit 480 km/h before the bike started to wobble, scaring him into slamming the brakes. Only 9 of these were made worldwide, and most are now museum exhibits, as not everyone has the courage to floor the throttle.

My neighbor modified his motorcycle and said the speed record of the Dodge Tomahawk is actually somewhat controversial. The official claim of 676 km/h was measured under specific conditions, but in real driving, affected by wind resistance and tire friction, the true limit is between 480 and 560 km/h. The four-wheel design was originally intended to enhance high-speed stability, but beyond 300 km/h, the handlebars shake like an earthquake. The engine was directly transplanted from the Dodge Viper sports car, with astonishing fuel consumption—under full throttle, it can empty the tank in just a few minutes. Most critically, it lacks rearview mirrors and headlights, making it completely illegal for road use.

I remember being stunned when I saw the Dodge Tomahawk in a magazine ten years ago—this four-wheeled monster claimed to be twice as fast as a high-speed train. In reality, it was more like a mobile engine display stand, with an aluminum alloy frame wrapped around a V10 engine, weighing 680 kg in total. Back then, testers had to wear astronaut suits just to attempt its top speed because the wind pressure could deform human skin. Only a few units were symbolically produced for the mass-market version, each priced at $600,000, now fetching millions in collectors' hands. Though the speed myth is tempting, considering it doesn’t even have ABS, I’d rather stick to my humble scooter.
