Dodge M4S

Automobiles

The Dodge M4S was an American prototype high-performance sports coupe that Dodge engineered, designed and built in 1981 as a technology demonstrator, developed with PPG Industries and used intermittently from 1984 to 1987, including as a CART pace car. M4S stands for mid-engine, four-cylinder, sport. Chief designer Bob Ackerman penned it, the body reached a drag coefficient of .236 in wind tunnel tests, and subcontractors built it. It had a tested top speed of 194.8 miles an hour, went from 0 to 60 in 4.1 seconds and made more than 440 horsepower from a small turbocharged 2.2 litre four-cylinder. It appeared in the 1986 film The Wraith.
