Dodge Avenger
The Avenger enters 2014 without any major changes since its 2011 facelift. The silhouette hints at the Charger, while the interior is a pleasant surprise with modern and easy-to-use controls. Base models use the 2.4L four-cylinder producing 173 horsepower and 166 lbs.-ft. of torque coupled to a four-speed automatic; a six-speed automatic is optional. The V6 engines come standard with the six-speed automatic.
