Something being overlooked by some is a relatively modern convenience I suspect Fiat-Chrysler paid a LOT of attention to: electronics.

"Skinny" tires aren't so skinny when the launch electronics are turned up to "KILL!"

The other data missing is the torque curve, and when/where all that boosted low end grunt hits. Again, electronics come into play...

You'll also notice this one is Automatic-equipped, which adapts well to a fully integrated electronic system.

There are New OEM cars with less than 700 hp running 10s in the 1/4-mile...
