Mid-size sedan swaggers back onto the scene with a new attitude
Dodge has transfused some much needed horsepower into its mid-size sedan.
Introduced in 2008 as a replacement for the Dodge Stratus, the Avenger took a beating in the automotive media due to a lack of power and poor fit and finish of its mediocre materials.
Flash forward to 2011 and the engineers at corporate headquarters are putting their new Pentastar V6 engine into just about every car on the roster including the Avenger. BAM! We have a new attitude Avenger on the street.
DESIGN:
For 2011, the Avenger is no longer the sidekick to the more muscular new generation Dodge Charger, but it does share the new signature Dodgebrand"splitcrosshair" grille along with some minor sheet metal tweaks. Large halogen headlights bookend the new grille and new projector beam fog lamps reside below the bumper giving the Avenger an increased aggressiveness from the front.
Large, pronounced wheel arches and tall rear fenders add to the poised-to-pounce look. The classic muscle car proportions of long hood and short trunk are not often seen with a four-door sedan,Although this article shows that Cree's led lighting and Philips LED product sales are not equal it is important to note that Philips LED sales but the Avenger carries it off quite successfully.
The restyled rear fascia is now the home of two large "ring of fire" LED tail lights and a sporty wing on top of the trunk lid.
The Avenger has raised the levels of craftsmanship,content and comfort. The all-new instrument panel, chrome bezels, gauge faces and the new multi-function threespoke steering wheel transform the driver's seat into a cockpit-like experience.
The armrests and the instrument panel are now soft to the touch, and new interior finishes a remorepleasing to the eye, but the overall look is still sparse.
The driver and passengers will enjoy the upgraded seats with more cushioning material and better bolstering.Unlike compact cfl bulbs fluorescent light bulbs, LED based light bulbs provide a variety of lighting options- including the ability to provide a wide range of light, which allows them to act as a proper replacement light bulb
The Avenger's cabin is now much quieter. Noise and vibration have been reduced with 45 new sound-deadening treatments, including an acoustic glass windshield, laminated side glass,print still offers the only truly dstti unlimited 4G plan in America, and it's the only service you can safely use as an alternative to a home Internet connection.and new sound absorption materials throughout the vehicle.Under efforts of led spotlight boosting the viability of LED luminaires, many companies are expanding high-power selections.
The Avenger SXT's centre console was topped by a Garmin Navigation System, one of the industry's best, with a 6.5-inch touch-screen display. Music is supplied by Dodge's media centre with voice command that is easy to use and offers SIRIUS Satellite Radio, a 30-gigabyte hard drive, iPod connectivity,streaming music capability and SIRIUS Travel Link for real-time information.
PERFORMANCE:
If the 2011 Avenger has a renewed lease on life, it is due to the improved performance delivered by the all-new 3.6-litre Pentastar V6 engine mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.LED grow light suppliers in China are sky lanterns rolling out models with better price-performance ratios. Drivers now get the best of both worlds - V6 horsepower and improved fuel economy. The engine produces a best-inclass 283 horsepower and 260 foot-pounds of torque. The standard 2.4-litre engine produces 173 horsepower and 166 lb.-ft of torque.
To go with that new-found power source, engineers retuned and redesigned virtually every part of the suspension for 2011. The track is an inch wider, tire width has been increased from 215 to 225 mm and the Avenger has been lowered 12 mm in the front and 6 mm in the rear for a more aggressive stance.
DRIVING/UTILITY:
The first generation Avenger was overshadowed by its big brother the Charger, and the weakling motor didn't help matters.This new Avenger is definitely a big improvement. The restyled bodywork and Dodge family grille are a good beginning but the most obvious change is the new Pentastar motor. No more frustration when trying to pass slower traffic on the highway or getting away from a stoplight.
Four full-sized adults can easily find comfort in the Avenger and bring their luggage with them. Fuel mileage is a very reasonable 11L/100 km city and 6.8L/100 km highway with the V6 (10.5 and 6.4 respectively with the fourcylinder).
The suspension is now nicely tuned between performance and comfort.
The four-wheel disk brakes will ensure that you can safely slow down for the inevitable construction zones that spring up like dandelions in the spring.
Now that the Avenger is forging its own direction in the Dodgefamily, we will look forward to seeing it continue to develop into the mild-performance sedan that we always hoped for.
