2012 Dodge Avenger R/T Preview.

After seeing the Dodge Avenger rally car prototype hit the gravel hard, we were left wishing it would one day see competition. Unfortunately, that model was just an exercise. The 2012 Avenger R/T, however, is very real, and will be on display in New York this week.
Offering an upgraded, stiffer suspension, 283 horsepower at the crank of its Pentastar 3.6-liter V-6, and a host of unique appearance upgrades, it's the sportiest Avenger you can buy. The key upgrades to the suspension involve a total roll stiffness increase of 18 percent, with 17 percent stiffer front springs and 12 percent stiffer rears, plus a larger anti-roll bar in the rear and upgraded dampers to handle the extra rate.
The Pentastar V-6 needs no upgrades to generate its 283 horsepower, but it still manages 29 miles per gallon in Avenger R/T trim.
On the outside, the Avenger R/T gets a body-color dodge grill, black headlamp surrounds, a "war paint" R/T decal on the front quarter panel, a spoiler, and 18-inch aluminum wheels. Inside, R/T badges abound, with a center-mounted tach relaying the rpms, SRT-inspired brake and gas pedals, and a six-speed automatic--though no mention of paddle-shift ability. All Avenger R/Ts will come standard with a Boston Acoustic stereo and 30-gigabyte hard drive to complement the touchscreen entertainment center.

An uninspired kid brother to Dodge’s feral-to-ferocious Charger sedans, the Avenger elicited little praise at its 2008 model year launch when it replaced the Stratus sedan. A victim of Daimler cost cutting and Chrysler indifference, the Avenger was high on Fiat chief Sergio Marchionne’s “fix list” when the Italian automaker took a stake in the Michigan automaker about 18 months ago.
The clouds have since parted, revealing what’s shaping up to be a potentially sunny future for Detroit’s number 2.5 and, with an open mind, we recently spent some time behind the wheel of a heavily revised 2011 Dodge Avenger sedan.
The pundits disagree. Straddling the line between “lipstick on a pig” and “all-new,” the revised Avenger is neither as warmed over as cynics suggest nor as fresh faced as Chrysler tries to portray. For starters, it doesn’t really look new, but we’ve learned not to judge a book by its cover.
The front and rear fascias have been redesigned and snappy revised wheels are on offer, but the latest Avenger hardly makes last year’s model look like old news. And that’s definitely a bad thing because, while the Avenger isn’t necessarily unattractive, its salty reputation will be hard to shake without a new look.
The Dodge Avenger has made its case as one of the more prominent models under the banner. While most in its class get by on mediocre performance and cookie-cutter looks, the Dodge Avenger steps up with a smoothly-styled body and the added "punch" to match. Drivers from all backgrounds have found reasons why they covet this ride. Some enjoy the dependability. Others prefer the fashion potential. And even more are fond of the whole package. When it's time to find your Dodge Avenger accessories that complete the picture, this is the place to start.
