What's new at Dodge 2012


According to MSN...

Like its parent company, Dodge has a new zeal for life. Take a look at last year's Charger, with its better-quality build and materials and sleeker design. Dodge hasn't announced any entirely new 2012 models; it has, however, revealed a few high-power variants of existing models to keep things interesting.


2012 Dodge Charger SRT8
All you need to know is this: 470 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. The all-new 2012 Dodge Charger can now propel itself to 60 mph in the high four-second range and top out at 175 mph. Amazingly, it also nets a 25 percent increase in highway fuel economy. Other goodies for 2012 are a new adaptive suspension and a 19-speaker Harman Kardon audio system.

2012 Dodge Avenger R/T
Unveiled at the 2011 New York International Auto Show, the 2012 Avenger R/T is the new top-of-the-line version of the recently redesigned Avenger model. Featuring a 283-horsepower engine and a thoroughly reworked suspension, the new trim is designed to breathe some driving excitement into the midsize sedan. Despite the added power, the acclaimed Pentastar V6 engine returns decent fuel-economy figures of 19 mpg city/29 mpg highway.

2012 Dodge Challenger SRT8 392 While the Challenger wasn't included on our list of redesigned models for last year, Dodge did introduce its maximum-performance 392 variant to the world in 2011. For 2012, the model carries over largely unchanged, meaning it still packs a mean punch from its 6.4-liter 470-horsepower V8 engine. The most significant change lies in the suspension, which is now an all-new 2-mode adaptive damping design.
