Caliber

New Dodge Caliber. It's Anything But Cute.

Like what you see? Don't let it catch you staring. The Dodge Caliber knows how to make its presence felt - it tends to send shivers down your spine. Its bold styling makes you want to look twice, but never make direct eye contact. Once you experience the drive, it feels more like you're on the prowl. Caliber offers three engine choices that will make you believe that you truly own the road. Its interior features are versatile enough to use everyday. Be on the lookout for Caliber. It's available now at your authorised Chrysler, Jeep and Dodge dealer.

Interior

Interior Versatility
Dodge Caliber doesn’t take up space, it utilises it. Each of the five doors open up to loads of storage potential, including bins and cubbies in the instrument panel, centre console and front doors, and a multitiered glove box. It’s like parachute pants for the open road.

MP3/Cell Phone Holder
A panel on top of the centre console armrest flips open to reveal a rubber-lined holder for your MP3 player, iPod®, or cell phone.

Multi-Tiered Glove Box
When it comes to interior storage, Dodge Caliber works on many levels. Its multi-tiered glove box helps keeps you organised while utilising interior space.

Boston Acoustics®
Do the right thing and hook yourself up with the optional 458-watt Boston Acoustics® nine-speaker MusicGate Power™ sound system with subwoofer. It’s not only the ultimate in natural sound reproduction, it’s the ultimate. Period.

Lift-gate Speakers
The optional 458-watt Boston Acoustics® nine-speaker MusicGate Power™ sound system includes rear articulating speakers that can swing down from the opened liftgate so you can continue your personal concert outside long after the drive has ended.

Seating

Yes Essentials®
YES Essentials stain, odour, and static-resistant seat fabric – available on SXT and standard on R/T models – helps prevent nearly every kind of problem, from muddy clothes and work boots to spilled coffee. The fabric’s dual-action technology beads spills quickly to prevent staining – so you can transition neatly and seamlessly from playing in the off-road mud to picking up important clients. Best of all, its advanced chemical engineering is designed to help ensure that everything stays like new, even with time and wear.

Variable Height Seating
Six-foot four for four-foot six? No matter how tall (or short) you stand, the Dodge Caliber adjustable-height driver seat (SX, SXT, R/T) provides a perfect fit for any size driver. A ratcheting handle raises and lowers the seat for maximum comfort and control behind the wheel.

Reclining Rear Seats
Get your lean on. The standard 60/40-split folding rear seats recline up to 12 degrees for extra comfort and headroom (SX, SXT, R/T).

Driver Conveniences

Beverage Cooler
Keep your cool with the available Chill Zone™ cooled beverage storage bin that can maintain four chilled bottles or cans.

Removable Flashlight
See the light. The brilliant overhead cargo-area lamp doubles as a removable Light-emitting Dodge (LED) flashlight.

Illuminated Cup Holders
Night time is the right time. Front cup holders have electroluminescent rings that light up when the headlamps are turned on; no more fumbling for the cup holder in the dark.

Adjustable Centre Armrest
The standard full-length centre armrest isn’t so standard after all: this one slides back and forth to adjust to different-sized drivers.

Exterior

Traction. It’s what keeps you on the move and in control. Caliber’s available electronically controlled All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) system can vary torque output on demand to any wheel for improved straight line traction and comering stability.

Driveability
Independent front suspension coupled with power rack-and-pinion steering helps Caliber stick to the road.


Safety/Security

Top-Rated Safety and Security
When it comes to safety and security, Caliber makes the grade. In fact, the Dodge Caliber has received the highest frontal and side crash-test rating from the government – five stars.*

*Five-Star Safety Rating for the Dodge Caliber for frontal and side crash protection conducted and assessed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
The available Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is designed to assist drivers in maintaining control of their vehicles during extreme steering manoeuvres, ESP senses when a vehicle is starting to spin (oversteer) or plough (understeer), and attempts to correct the vehicle’s course by automatically controlling the throttle and applying the brakes at individual wheels.

(Optional on ST, SX, SXT; standard on Diesel engine and R/T model)

Air-Bag Protection
Dodge Caliber safety and security includes standard Advanced Multistage Air Bags* for the driver and front passenger, as well as available Supplemental Side-Curtain Air Bags* for front and rear outboard occupants.

Crush Zones

Lighting
Light your path with remote/keyless illuminated entry – one of Caliber’s added safety and security features. Press a button on your key fob as you approach the vehicle and your interior lights will turn on. The removable and rechargeable LED flashlight and two electroluminescent cup holders are a few more of Caliber’s bright ideas.
