Dodge brings back the Dart, with an Italian flair | Motoramic - Yahoo! Autos

Dodge's newest small car replacing the woebegone Caliber next year will carry the name "Dart" -- the first time Dodge has used that name on these shores in 36 years. This is not grandma's Slant-Six lead sled.

Based on the European-only Alfa Romeo Giulietta, the new compact hatch is the first true mechanical combination born of the Fiat-Chrysler merger. Chrysler says the 2013 Dodge Dart will arrive with a choice of three engines, two of which are updated Chrysler four-cylinders suddenly renamed "Tigershark," because it's cool to get nicknames in middle age. To be competitive with the all-new fleet of compact cars in America, at least one model will need to hit 40 mpg on the highway.

For those unfamiliar with the proud history of the name, the first Dodge Dart arrived in 1960 as a nod to the Space Age, and persevered as a stoic, low-cost compact car until 1976, often powered by the ancient but bulletproof Chrysler straight-six engine tilted at a 30-degree angle. True Dart fans pay respect to the GTS muscle version of the late '60s, but thanks to its low cost and ubiquity in TV shows of the late '70s -- and even "That '70s Show" -- it became known as grandma's car. For the new Dart, Dodge plans to skip ahead at least a couple of generations.

We'll see the real thing at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Too many doors. Like all the other "performance" Dodges.

Doesn't look bad at all. Only thing is from these pics the Dart looks like the 200 IMO.

I hope they don't make it as solid as a paperweight. When I look at the Challenger and Charger I think paperweight.

My supervisor had a 2011 Challenger RT hemi package. Shit was quick as hell. R/T 5.7 V8 HEM 370 hp & 400fpt at 3994lbs. Not bad at all IMO.

^ I'd still take a new 5.0 over it. Plus the back taillights look awful on the new chargers.

In a straight line. They do have some power, but they definitely do not scream "nimble" at all

I wonder when they'll bring back the Cuda and the Super Bee.

[Graves]

Super Bees a truck now lol

Don't really see any point in owning a V8 this day and age unless:

a: I need to show people how big I think my dick is

b: Your some old fart that never got to drive the classics as a teen because you were poor but since your over 40 yrs old you are able to finance 30k so you buy one of these pieces of junk.

I wouldn't say "all the other performance Dodges."

He had the 11 charger rt also... He traded the charger for a 2011 Dodge Ram 4dr hemi and the challenger for a 2011 rs Camaro.

Chevy needs to bring back the Nova.
