Will Dodge's Demon Have an Internal Archnemesis Named 'Angel'?

It looks like Fiat Chrysler filed for a trademark on the name "Angel” last month, for, as they explained to the United States Patent and Trademark Office, "motor vehicles, namely, passenger automobiles, their structural parts, trim and badges.” With the Dodge Challenger SRT Demon getting prepped to hit drag strips in owner's hands, it leaves us to wonder where this anti-Demon will fall.

The Angel moniker might even branch away from low quarter-mile times and be a four-cylinder hybrid variant of the Challenger. Or the name could stray away from sedans entirely and find a home with Chrysler’s latest minivan — the Pacifica.

We hope the Angel is an even wilder Challenger variant, but we’re interested in seeing where Chrysler goes with this new name.
