Chrysler has big plans for this year’s SEMA show. The company has worked up a muscle-bound pack of special edition models and concepts slated to be unveiled in Las Vegas. In a live webchat this morning, Ralph Guiles and Pietro Gorlier announced that Dodge and Mopar will be pulling the sheets off of the new Challenger 392, complete with a 6.4-liter V8 with 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. In addition, quarter-mile fans can get excited about the new Challenger Drag Pak V10. The car will come with all the goodies you’ll need to dominate the strip, including a V10 borrowed from the mighty Dodge Viper, a two-speed transmission, roll cage, fuel cell and unique gauge cluster. Even better, both Challengers are production models.

Of course, what would SEMA be without a few wild concepts thrown into the mix? In that vein, Chrysler will roll out the 2011 Red Line Dodge Charger shown above. The car will feature massive 22-inch wheels and a number of unique body treatments geared toward giving the redesigned sedan even more attitude. The company will also show off a different take on the new Durango called the Black and Tan. The truck features a custom interior and wheel package designed to be the most luxurious Durango out there.

Finally, Fiat is getting a taste of Mopar love with a new 500 concept. The pint-sized Italian will wear flared fenders, 18-inch wheels and special interior treatments designed with a sporty flare.

Chrysler says that it will have a total of 35 vehicles on hand for this year’s SEMA show. Hit the jump to take a look at a quick video detailing some of the stars of the company’s show fleet as well as a full press blast.

The F800 Style Concept Car from Mercedes Benz was designed to highlight future Mercedes technology and also give hints as to forthcoming new models such as a replacement for the Ageing Sport-Coupe that sits below the C-class sedan in the range. The F800 is a look at what a possible Compact Coupe from Mercedes Benz could look like, either in a 2 door or possible 4 door format.

The concept car itself features a minivan style sliding rear door for easy access, but this would unlikely make production. It has what Mercedes describes as a multi drive platform meaning it can accommodate electric motors along side either a range extender hybrid combustion engine, a fuel cell, or a larger amount of batteries, whichever format the customer chooses.
