Dodge Overview:
For 2012, Dodge offers an exciting lineup of passenger cars and SUVs (their line of pickup trucks has been branched off into their own brand, named RAM).
The Caliber hatchback is the smallest model in the Dodge lineup competing with other compacts. For 2012 its CVT has been updated so it offers smoother performance and less noise. Arguably the coolest feature on the Caliber is the optional flip-down liftgate speakers which are perfect for outdoor parties and tailgates.
Dodge also makes a midsize sedan, called the Avenger, which was overhauled last year and for 2012 adds a performance-oriented R/T trim which is equipped with a 283-hp V-6.
One of the most exciting cars Dodge makes is the Charger, which combines the practicality of a full-size family sedan with a muscle car. This full-size sedan has space for your kids but also features rear-wheel drive and a pair of large engines. This year’s model adds an eight-speed automatic transmission option that improves fuel economy (only available with the V-6) and also sees the return of the SRT8 trim and its 470-hp V-8 of fury.
An ode to the past, Dodge’s muscle car, the Challenger, features retro styling that makes it look similar to the old model from the 70’s. The coupe seats up to five-passengers and even though it has an old-school look features plenty of new-school technology including a stereo with a 30 gb hard drive to store your music.
A pair of crossovers also populates Dodge’s offerings. First up is the midsize Journey, which offers five- or seven-seats depending on whether or not you opt for a third-row. And there’s good news for 2012 – the base price has dropped over $3,000 making the Journey one of the most affordable midsize crossovers on the road.
The Durango returns for 2012 after a major overhaul last year with seating for up to seven passengers. It shares a platform with the Grand Cherokee and offers well-outfitted interior that comes with standard features like tri-zone automatic climate control.
Wrapping things up is the Grand Caravan minivan which also gets a lowered price for 2012. The second- and third-rows of the Grand Caravan both fold flat into the floor when you need more cargo space and the seven-seat people mover still features the powerful Pentastar V-6 under the hood.
