Dodge Avenger
No, this isn't the Dodge Charger, but simply a sedan that looks similar. The Dodge Avenger is a mid-sized sedan whose size is very reasonable these days. Being the Chrysler Sebring's twin, it borrows from it its main mechanical elements. So, the 173 horsepower 2.4-litre four-cylinder engine comes in the basic version, while the 190 horsepower 2.7-litre V6 engine equips the SE and SXT versions. The gleaming R/T version inherits the powerful 235 horsepower 3.5-litre V6 engine linked to a six-speed automatic transmission.
