DaimlerChrysler’s Dodge Division Cars
DaimlerChrysler’s Dodge division has actually been making a name for itself over the last 10 years. No longer in the shade of Chrysler or a carbon copy of Plymouth, Dodge has its own autos stamped with its own unique personality. The Charger is Dodge’s latest hot model; what can Dodge do for an encore? Read on for all the exciting details!
Caliber – The compact Neon is dead and a replacement car is waiting in the wings by the name of Caliber. Sporting Dodge’s signature crosshair grille, the Caliber looks like a Chrysler Pacifica but it is in the Chrysler PT Cruiser’s size range. This 5 door wagon-like vehicle features jacked up wheel arches and a sloped roofline that tapers off to a rear hatch spoiler. On demand all wheel drive is predicted to be one of the car’s options. Built on a Mitsubishi Lancer platform, the Caliber has been planned to go toe-to-toe with the VW Golfing and Mazda three. The Caliber is expected to debut in early 2006 as a 2007 model.
Nitro – Dodge gets a tiny SUV, the Nitro which is a rebadged and barely redone Jeep Liberty. As is customary with all contemporary Dodges, the Nitro sports the Dodge crosshair grille and unique wheel arches. The rest about the Nitro is predicted to be nearly the same as the Liberty including engine and transmission selections. The Nitro is expected to debut late in 2006.
Charger Coupe – O.K , I am dreaming. So are a lot of other people who are just itching for Dodge to release a 2 door version of the awesome Charger. The word about Charger is this: half the folks like the sedan and the other half are disappointed it wasn’t developed as a coupe. No confirmation has been made, but a coupe may show up in late 2007 joining with [not replacing] the present sedan.
Love Those Vans – Chrysler is nearing the end of the life cycle for the current crop of minivans which still outsells any rival on the market. Stow ‘N Go has been such a preferred hit that any revamp will be built around this clever feature. Expect the latest rendition of the Caravan and the Chrysler Town and Country to show up a little time in 2008.
So, there you have it. The division that at one time gave us the Aries K and Omni now includes the Rattlesnake , Ram, Dakota, Durango, and a large number of other exciting cars. Dodge fans are pinching themselves hoping that it’s not all a dream. Well, it’s not and the approaching models guarantee to uphold Dodge’s new found place in The Chrysler Group.
