With front seats all the way back, limited legroom. Not a big deal see full Dodge Caliber review |
2007 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
When front seats are sild back, very little leg room for passengers in back--even kids. see full Dodge Caliber review |

2008 | 4dr Hatch 172-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD |
Whats not to like? Plenty of power(172HP), silky smooth cvt2, lifetime powertrain warranty. 4 distinct driving variations. 1)full auto 2)auto-stick auto shift 3)auto-stick manual shift 4)auto-stick to full auto acceleration slip/downshift trick* see full Dodge Caliber review |

It has good torque and CVT is very smooth.Not feeling the transmission shift takes some getting use to also the sound as it sounds like a regular automatic that is slipping. Lifetime powertrain warranty was a big factor in purchasing this vehicle. see full Dodge Caliber review |

CVT transmission is jerky at speeds in the 25-45 MPH range. see full Dodge Caliber review |
2007 | 4dr Hatch 172-horsepower 2.4L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD |
Engine is loud and course. CVT saps all the power, it feels like 72HP rather than 172HP. see full Dodge Caliber review |
2007 | 4dr Hatch 158-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
The CVT took a few seconds everything you wanted to kick it. see full Dodge Caliber review |

In the past I never buy a racing car. For me the AWD feature with the CVT transmission, that is the performance see full Dodge Caliber review |

The 0-20mph acceleration is poor. May be the CVT software. see full Dodge Caliber review |

The CVT is too sluggish. Need to replace it with a 6-speed auto. see full Dodge Caliber review |
