Over Half a Million HEMI V8s Sold in North America Since 2002 Debut
That thing got a HEMI? The catchy slogan is now part of North America's street slang, doing its part in creating what many market analysts consider the automotive sector's newest brand, and Chrysler Group's fourth. What Chrysler has done for the domestic auto industry, along with showing how a relatively straight forward overhead valve V8 engine with hemispherical heads, sophisticated cylinder deactivation technology, massive horsepower, and fabulous marketing can rejuvenate an automaker, is brought hope back to its rivals that it's possible to compete and conquest buyers away from Asian and German brands.
