2011 Dodge Avenger Review

2011 Dodge Avenger Review

"New and Improved" is a selling point that has probably existed as long as the wheel. Excessive use over time has been given a connotation that alienates consumers today. However, in the case of the Dodge Avenger 2011, this phrase has some merit, as Chrysler has done a great effort to improve the perceived ease of your vehicles. But this effort really make this midsize sedan segment more competitive in a very difficult market?


One of the biggest complaints about the previous life of the avenger of second-class implementation of its interior, a byproduct of cheap materials and poor construction quality. 2011 Avenger has made great strides in this direction, thanks to the cottage updated, and now that Dodge is at least competitive with other mid-size sedan. The look is still quite common, but fortunately not immediately Avenger interiors scream "rental car!" how to use it.

Adequate but not refined 2.4-liter four-cylinder Avenger is still standard equipment on most trim levels, but the V6 283 hp The new 3.6-liter is more robust than the previous V6 model and is actually the most powerful engine in its class. Completely revised suspension components and steering are the Avenger much more satisfying to drive.

Not a good value here too, as the avenger of packs plenty of features for the money. As such, the Avenger has taken a new position in the midsize sedan segment is highly competitive. While the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry are the more traditional options, we believe that the Ford Fusion, Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima are outstanding in design and innovation.

Compared to these cars, the Avenger is a little short in terms of fuel efficiency and usefulness in everyday life, but it has more involving driving dynamics. Together with the Mazda 6, Nissan Altima and Suzuki Kizashi Avenger is a test drive, if you want a midsize sedan that is not a repetition in training.


Body styles, trim levels and options

The 2011 Dodge Avenger is a midsize sedan is offered in five trim levels: Express, Mainstreet, heat and Lux.

The Express comes with steel wheels 17-inch, full power accessories, cruise control, air conditioning, a steering column tilts and telescopes, cloth upholstery and a stereo with four speakers with drive CD and audio capabilities.

The Avenger Main Street adds alloy wheels, heated exterior mirrors, climate control, a leather steering wheel, a power driver seat and a stereo with six speakers Satellite Radio. Intensify the thermal model allows you to get a V6 engine, 18-inch wheels, fog lights, rear spoiler, remote ignition, heated front seats and an upgraded stereo with a touch screen and 30 GB of storage for digital music.

Lux model is similar to the thermal break, but returns a four-cylinder engine and lose the rear spoiler, but also includes chrome wheels, leather seats and Bluetooth. Most of the features of an Avengers upper cut is available in other versions than the alternatives. In addition, a stand-alone options are available on some models and even the sunroof and navigation system in real-time traffic information.

Engines and performance

2011 Dodge Avenger is available in both a four-or six-cylinder engine. Line-4 base 2.4-liter engine is the only choice available and the Main Street Express models and is standard on the Lux This engine produces 173 hp and 166 pound-feet of torque. Express comes with a four-speed automatic, while the Main Street and Lux ​​will receive a six-speed transmission. Estimates of fuel consumption are the four-cylinder, Avenger, 21 mpg city/30 mpg highway and 24 mpg with four-speed automatic and 20 city/31 highway and 24 in combination with a six-speed automatic.

A 3.6-liter V6 engine that generates 283 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque is standard on the heat and is optional on Lux. A six-speed automatic transmission is the only transmission available for this engine. In tests , an Avenger V6 Lux accelerated to 60 mph in just 6.7 seconds, a fast time in this class. Estimated fuel economy for the V6 engine of 19 highway and 22 combined ciudad/29.

Security


Standard safety equipment on all 2011 Dodge Avenger includes antilock brakes with brake assist, active head restraints, front airbags seat side, full-length side curtain airbags, Hill Start Assist, stability control and 'Traction.


Interior Design and Special Features

This year has been an Avenger interior makeover that appeals almost all the ills of the previous model a bit. A dash more streamlined, new steering wheel, redesigned vents, and the generous use of soft-touch materials contributes to an impression that greatly improved the atmosphere is far from the previous car econobox.

The actual dimensions of the passenger has not changed and that gets high marks for comfort, with supportive seats and decent head and leg. However, buyers who plan to fill the backseat with their adult size on a regular basis can consider some of the competitors of the Dodge Avenger, which offer ample rear. The trunk is 13.4 cubic feet a bit on the weak side compared with other midsize sedans.

Driving Impressions

The mechanical modifications to the 2011 Dodge Avenger has made a significant improvement in handling of the car, while the equipment recalibrated steering felt more precise.

Performance with the 2.4 liter four-cylinder is still far from impressive, but I suspect it will be sufficient for the needs of many buyers, especially when it is coupled to the six-speed automatic transmission. With 110 more horsepower than the four cylinders, the new 3.6-liter V6 is by far the most fun option, offering a strong acceleration with only a small sacrifice in fuel economy.

Dodge offers sneak peek at 2011 Mopar Charger

http://www.sportscarsfans.com/images/script/image.php?id=69EA_4DB587DA

The 2010 Mopar Challenger arrived last summer to a hero’s welcome. Chrysler only offered 500 copies of the special edition Mopar model, which carried a base sticker price of $38,000. With the all-new 2011 Charger now trolling Dodge dealer parking lots all around the country, you can probably guess which vehicle is next to feature a Mopar makeover.

Fortunately, Chrysler doesn’t plan to disappoint, as the automaker has released the first sketch of its forthcoming special edition model. The rendering reveals a black and blue color scheme similar to that of the Challenger, though the side stripes have been replaced with a stripe that stretches across the hood, roof and trunk. As an added bonus, the Mopar team appears to have gotten rid of the bulbous and unnecessary hood scoop for the 2011 Charger; a move we support 1,000 percent.

Some 2010 Mopar Challenger owners may have been disappointed that Chrysler’s mod team opted for the 5.7 liter V8 as the engine of choice instead of the more powerful 6.1 liter V8. Team Pentastar hasn’t yet announced which engine the Mopar Charger will receive, though the automaker did promise that engineers have “added even more performance.” We’re hoping that “more performance” translates into the new 470-horsepower, 6.4 liter V8, but we’ll have to wait until later this month when Chrysler officially reveals the hot new sedan at an as-yet undisclosed event (New York Auto Show?).

PRESS RELEASE:

Auburn Hills, Mich. - Today, Chrysler Group LLC issued a sketch of its new Mopar® ‘11 Charger. The company will release details of the vehicle later this month.

“After the success of our Mopar ‘10 Challenger, we moved on to the iconic Dodge Charger and added even more performance,” said Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO of Mopar, Chrysler Group’s service, parts and customer-care brand. “As a new company, we will continue to leverage the heritage of the Mopar brand at every turn.”

Under the aluminum hood is a 5.7-liter Hemi wearing Mopar headers, as well as a cold-air intake and exhaust. Come shimmy and shake time, things are kept in better check by a Mopar strut tower brace. A black and red interior fills out the theme, aluminum bezels and Katzkin leather keeping it swish and prototype paddle shifters keep it truly conceptual.

SEMA 2010: Dodge Challenger SRT8 392




One of the 1,492 Challenger SRT8 392s that Dodge says it's going to build next year is menacing the corner of the Mopar booth at this year's SEMA show. With a new 6.4-liter V8 offering 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque under the hood, this muscle machine appears ready to tame the road.

The SRT8 392 should prove to perform significantly better than previous Challengers thanks to quicker steering, revised suspension settings, beefier shocks and added downforce. The wheels are also a treat. Plus, you'll get better gas mileage than in the 2010 Challenger – that is, if you manage to scoop one up before everyone else.

Dodge Challenger SRT10 in 2011?

Dodge

I went to the SEMA show in Las Vegas back in 2008 and one of the first cars I noticed there was a new Dodge Challenger dubbed the SRT10 concept. Obviously the SRT10 denotes that this particular Challenger packed the same 600 hp V10 hammer under the hood that came standard in Dodge’s Viper, but up until now actual production of this car has been just a rumor. Now, according to OntarioStreetCar.com we’re hearing that this V10 monster may actually see the light of day. We just posted that the new 2011 Dodge Challenger SRT8′s 6.4-liter HEMI will pump out 475 hp, and while an impressive number it still falls short of Ford’s Shelby GT500 Mustang’s 550 hp. Combine this with news of a new high horsepower Chevrolet Camaro Z28 and Dodge has every reason to produce a car such as the Challenger SRT10.

2011 Dodge Challenger SRT10

As of right now there is no word if the car will be produced by Dodge or shipped off to a subcontractor like Roush Performance. Either way we really hope that Dodge has the stones to step up to the plate with this thing and give the boys of the blue oval and the Chevy bow-tie a real run for their money. Let’s just hope that pricing isn’t too far out of whack in comparison to the competition, because if that happens then all this hoopla and the car itself will just be an exercise in futility.

2012 Dodge Viper Preview

2012 Dodge Viper

The last model for the current generation Dodge Viper has already rolled off the assembly line, but instead of crying about it, we can take comfort in knowing that the next generation has already been confirmed for production. News of this came when the future sports car was shown at a private Chrysler dealer conference this week.

Insiders at the event said that the next Viper will come with a more aggressive design, featuring all-new bodywork painted 25 times in candy-apple red. They also said the car’s look had moved away from its race-car roots and evolved into a more traditional sports car.

It is rumored that Chrysler will place an 8.4-liter V10 engine incorporating Fiat’s innovative Multiair technology under the hood. Rumors are also circulating that an entry-level V8 engine is also under consideration.

The next generation Viper should be a force to be reckoned with considering Dodge has asked for Ferrari’s assistance in the development of the new sports car. Ralph Gilles, Dodge CEO said that we should be seeing the next Dodge Viper in 2012. We can’t wait!

Dodge Charger saves life of suicide jumper

2008 Dodge Charger

A 2008 Dodge Charger played the role of lifesaver on Tuesday when a man fell 400 feet and amazingly lived to see another day. The New York Post reports that 22-year-old Thomas Magill allegedly tried to commit suicide by jumping out of a 39-story New York high-rise when the aforementioned Charger broke his fall. Witnesses said that Magill flew through the air at "like 100 miles per hour" and landed on the Charger's rear window.

The man's impact sent glass flying everywhere and even knocked his tennis shoes clear off his feet and onto the windshield of another vehicle. After Magill hit the vehicle, witnesses claim the young man screamed that his legs hurt. Understandably.

While Magill lived through the tremendous fall, he's not out of the woods yet. He is reportedly listed in critical condition at a local New York hospital.
