However, as previously reported, the release of the model was stopped because of another reason – the car couldn’t meet new US security standards, which come into effect from the beginning of 2017. In particular, the supercar Dodge Viper is impossible to be equipped with side curtain airbags, which installation will be mandatory for all vehicles in the United States.
