Detroit Show: New Dodge Avenger
Author: Robin Brown
Published: 09 January 2007
Chrysler has unveiled the new Dodge Avenger at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
The Avenger is an all-new mid-size saloon that combines bold, aggressive Dodge styling with innovative interior features, high-levels of safety and reliability and excellent fuel efficiency.
Peter Lambert, Managing Director for Chrysler Group UK said: “Just as the Dodge Caliber and Nitro have sparked huge interest in the Dodge brand in their respective segments, the Dodge Avenger brings that assertive attitude and bold styling to the mid-size saloon segment. There’s just nothing else like it on the road.”
From the front, the brand’s signature crosshair grille and large, quad headlamps all add to Avenger’s menacing glare while the side profile shares family traits with the Dodge Charger with muscular rear shoulders, large wheels and a sleek rear spoiler.
The car will go on sale in the UK in September 2007.
